Way too expensive, but there is no alternative,

This review is from: Briggs & Stratton 6030 Standby Generator Cold Weather Kit (Lawn & Patio)
This item is much too expensive for what you get, but you have no choice since your forced to use this specific kit for your B&S generator. At least through Amazon it was $50 less than anywhere else I could find it. Functionally it's fine and it's easy to install yourself even though it says you need to have a certified electrician install it. I'm sure that warning was to keep the lawyers happy.

Does the job,

This review is from: Briggs & Stratton 6030 Standby Generator Cold Weather Kit (Lawn & Patio)
This cold weather kit is rather expensive, but it does the job. When it first arrived and I saw what it was I was in shock. "I paid almost $200.00 for this?" I had my electrician buddy install it, even though it could be easily done by anyone that can read directions and connect a couple of snap in plugs. We had many nights of sub-zero temps and when I checked the block and battery they were noticeably warmer than the rest of the unit. I started the generator and it turned over flawlessly. I had already spent over $200.00 on the battery and with the temps we get around here I did not want to keep replacing frozen batteries at that price. I would recommend this cold weather kit to anyone in the same situation. It really does do the job as advertised.

Generator cold weather kit simple enough.,
This review is from: Briggs & Stratton 6030 Standby Generator Cold Weather Kit (Lawn & Patio)
Kit was easy to install but instructions specified an oil warmer location that was inaccessible on my 10kw generator. Recommend using a 11/16 crows foot and socket driver with extension to speed installation. You will have to drain oil from engine to install the oil warmer. Seems to be working otherwise. Leads could be longer but since I used an alternate location this may be a problem specific to my installation.
