It's not an April Fool's Day prank.👍
Exercise Does a Generator Good 💪⚡
As spring and fall roll around, you might notice your generator putting in a little extra effort. That’s because select Briggs & Stratton home standby generators are programmed to run an extended 45-minute exercise cycle on April 1 and September 1.
This isn’t just for show—it’s smart maintenance.
These longer exercise runs help burn off moisture that can naturally build up inside the engine crankcase over time.
By clearing out that condensation, your generator stays running smooth, efficient, and ready for action when you need it most.
Like any exercise program done correctly, this extended exercise periods can:
✔️ Improve overall performance
✔️ Help prevent internal engine issues
✔️ Confirm your system is operating properly
✔️ Keeps your generator “in shape” year-round
It’s a simple but important feature that supports the long-term reliability of your home standby generator—because when the power goes out, your whole house standby generator system should be ready to perform.
