QUIETER OPERATION
Exclusive Quiet Armor™ technology ensures 20% LESS NOISE than leading commercial-grade portable generators
THE TRUTH BEHIND DECIBEL RATINGS
Not all generator brands use the same testing standards to determine decibel ratings, meaning advertised ratings are hard to compare from brand to brand. NorthStar sets the record straight.
HEAD-TO-HEAD TESTING
An independent sound laboratory put the new NorthStar commercial-grade generators with Quiet Armor™ technology to the test against the leading generator brands using identical testing methods. Test results revealed the NorthStar commercial-grade generator is significantly quieter than the competition.
BUILT STRONGER
Made to last with HEAVY-DUTY steel frames, HIGHEST-QUALITY components and backed by the BEST warranties on the market
EASIER TO USE
Conveniently MONITOR ALL generator functions on one easy-to-read LCD display
BETTER EQUIPPED
Full panel of GFCI outlets provide ESSENTIAL jobsite SAFETY and CONVENIENCE
