These generators run on natural gas or propane and use a fan to circulate air across fins or heat sinks, which helps dissipate heat generated by the engine. They are a cost-effective, low-maintenance option for homes and businesses who only need essential power during outages.
The system circulates a liquid, often a special coolant mix, through the engine block, absorbing heat from the combustion process and other components.
Air-cooled generators are simpler to operate and maintain than liquid-cooled models, as they don't require coolant, radiators, or water pumps.
They are generally less expensive to purchase and maintain compared to liquid-cooled options.
Due to their smaller size and weight, air-cooled generators can be installed in a wider range of locations.
Some air-cooled generators are known for their fuel efficiency.
