No warranty if it's not connected to an inverter system on day 1!

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Generac Warranty claim ECOGEN 15k<br>
<br>
Wrenches<br>
<br>
Any guidance on getting warranty claim approved when their denial reason is the generic \u201cunsafe\u201d installation? There isn\u2019t anything unsafe about the 1.5 year install that I can see. The ECOGEN is connected to an Outback Radian. <br>
<br>
Generator has 950 hours on it before the brushes melted down from being exposed to engine oil. <br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
<br>
Maverick<br>

I have a spreadsheet on our website that might do the trick. It gets complicated with non-flat ground and rows that are not due east-west. It\u2019s been a long time since I used it but give it a try. <br>
