my 20lb propane tank would not power this generator. It starved for fuel. I called tech support and was told I needed a 40lb tank or more because my 20lb didn't have enough pressure. Wondering if anyone else has had this problem or is it just a faulty 20lb propane tank?

How I solve this problem with my generator was to buy an aftermarket propane, quick connect hose with an adjustable propane regulator. And then I will slowly increase the pressure on the regulator until the generator will run with no problem at full throttle. Hope this helps.

May be something wrong with the regulator on the generator, hose, or the tank. I ran this generator on a full 20LB tank this weekend just fine. Only lasted 4hrs though till empty

Can the 50 Amp plug and the 30 Amp plug be used simultaneously?
@MODERNMILT
Ай бұрын
Yes, on a Duromax 13000W generator, you can typically use both the 50-amp and 30-amp plugs at the same time, provided that the total load on the generator does not exceed its rated capacity. The generator is designed to supply power through multiple outlets simultaneously, but you need to ensure that the combined wattage of all the connected devices stays within the generator’s maximum output limit (13,000 watts surge and 10,500 watts running). Always refer to the generator’s manual for specific instructions and safety guidelines regarding simultaneous use of different outlets.

It doesn't have an oil filter so how often do you have to change the oil? What type of oil does it use and how much.
@MODERNMILT
Ай бұрын
The Duromax 13000W generator does not have an oil filter. Many portable generators, including this one, are designed without an oil filter, relying on regular oil changes to keep the engine lubricated and clean. For the Duromax 13000W generator, it is recommended to change the oil after the first 20 hours of use (this is often referred to as the “break-in period”). After that, you should change the oil every 50-100 hours of use, or at least once a season if you are not using the generator frequently. Always refer to the owner’s manual for the most accurate maintenance schedule and recommended oil type.

A small window AC unit can use as little as 500 watts while a larger window unit often uses around 1,400 watts. Extremely small central ACs use roughly 1,500 watts, and mid-sized ones might use roughly 2,200. If you have a very large central AC, expect it to use between 3,000 and 4,000 watts.

I’m running my generator off natural gas so my wattage is 10000. My electric water heater pulls 4000W, my two fridge freezers is 1200W, my deep freezer 500W and furnace blower motor is 800W. All that alone is 6500W, this doesn’t include anything else like cooking, lights, laundry and any other things we may need to use. 10000 might be much but I’ll never have to worry about being under powered. My neighbours can also jump on this generator if need be to power essentials. Duromax generators are great and I’m glad you own one 💪🏻
