Briggs & Stratton 40302 12,000 Watt IntelliGen Natural Gas/Liquid Propane Powered Air Cooled Home Standby Generator (CARB Compliant) Review

I purchased a Briggs and Stratton 12000 standby home generator less than a year ago. It "exercises" once per week for 15-30 min and in the winter, I noticed that the engine was laboring badly. Upon inspection, I found that the air intake, which is only 6 inches off the ground and faces down, was covered by snow. I am told that the engine could be damaged if it ran beyond the short exercise period. I called B&S to ask about a solution. They were aware of the problem and recommended that I clear the snow after every storm. I explained that I will be away from the house and they suggested that I have my neighbors do it--I live in the country. Clearly, this is a design-flaw on their part that could be remedied by some retro-fitting. In addition, I found two of the plastic air exhaust and circulation covers lying on the ground this spring allowing small animals to access the engine. I tried to replace them but the plastic snap pins no longer held tight. B&S service said that they were aware of this problem and that I should cut away the plastic pins and replace them with small stainless steel bolts. I would do this except the area is wholly inaccessible unless the top is removed which is a major undertaking and one that could potentially invalidate warranty. Again, I was very surprised to see that B&S took no responsibility for these problems which are both clearly design flaws. Bottom-line, if you live in an area that encounters cold and snow like we do, I would stay away from this generator. In addition, consider the complete lack of responsibility by B&S for their faulty product design.
