Questions & Answers

Does this come with a hose to connect to a propane tank?
Asked by DullRazr January 4, 20219
AnswersYes it does. Not a very long one but, still pretty useful.
can this switch from propane to gas or gas to propane without turning engine off?
Asked by ace July 27, 20197
AnswersI tried it and it worked quite smoothly. One thing not to do, is to refuel the gasoline while the generator is running.
Do you just have to use the battery to start it or Does it have a pull start option
Asked by Airhop December 7, 20196
AnswersI learned the hard way that you have to plug the battery cable together to use the electric starter. The connection was hidden on mine. So I had to use the pull cord, and it worked just fine. Glad I can use the electric starter next time.
how can i buy it doesn't give me the option to buy
Asked by Rober October 26, 20195
AnswersI ordered it online and had it shipped to a US Home Depot, where I picked it up. It wasn't available in Canada at the time. Depending on how much time you spend in the US, you might have to pay taxes on your way back.

First impressions of my new generator!
January 10, 2021
Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com 
Just received, packaging was in tact but in somewhat rough shape. Looks like generator was laying in its front side sometime during shipment. Some oil on inside of box due to fill plug not being tight; small dent on Westinghouse logo above the meter, but it doesn't look like it will affect anything. Gave it 4 stars only because we haven't run it yet, but the features look good.
Quality generator, fast shipping.

Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
I bought the Wgen7500df for backup power in the cold Maine winters. I wanted the propane option to eliminate the sticky carb. problems. Generator arrives when it was supposed to. No damage from shipping. Instructions were easy to read and understand. I hooked it up and tested it out on propane. It worked and produced power no problems. I tested the remote and it worked as it should. I am happy with the product and would by again. I would and did recommend to a friend.
Love this generator!

Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
Love my new gen7500, easy assembly and instructions
Wow! Love the features. BUT!!
December 31, 2020
Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
The gasoline tank has an indent that was disguised by someone before shipping with a black marker. The Westinghouse Generator 7500DF would not manually start after setting it up referencing ALL the instructions. Turns out that until the starter-battery is fully charged, the auto-choke function seems to lock-out any hope of getting the thing to run with a manual pull-start. After six hours of charging the battery, the manual start did work. However, there is still not enough battery juice to turn the engine over for an electric start. Will keep charging and report the outcome to 855-944-3571. Love the idea and promise of a dual-fuel electric generator. If this works out to match the sales description, I will be very happy. I might even up-star my review, if I don't have further problems.
Response from WestinghouseJanuary 6, 2021
We're so sorry to hear that you're having difficulty with the manual start! You may find the information on page 23 of the WGen7500DF manual helpful. Step 6a clarifies how to manually set the choke during a cold start. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer care team at service@wpowereq.com or 1-855-944-3571. We look forward to hearing an update on your experience!
Nice paint

Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
Just unpacked. Looks sturdy.
It’s heavy. Keeping a few lights and fridge running if the grid fails is my reason for purchase. Hopefully it will adorn my patio for many years without being used.
Very well built

Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
I have a smaller twin home so this pretty much covers all essentials of our home plus some extras. Arrived fast and was very easy to assemble. It’s got some weight but I was able to load it into the house with just me and my wife so it’s manageable.
So many extras
December 15, 2020
Customer review from westinghouseportablepower.com
Exactly what we needed for our camper.Love all the extra features like remote start and USB charging ports
