DuroMax XP13000HX

The DuroMax XP13000HX makes 10,500 W running on gasoline and 10,000 W on propane, and starts motors that need up to 13,000 W. It runs about 8.5 hours at half load on a 8.3-gallon tank of gasoline (maker figure).

Outdoors only, far from doors, windows and vents: the exhaust carries carbon monoxide. It has 240-volt output, so it can feed a well pump through a transfer switch.

DuroMax XP13000HX

The numbers behind that

This generator makes up to 10,500 watts and can start motors that briefly need 13,000 watts. It runs on gasoline or propane. At half load it runs about 8.5 hours on a tank.

It supplies both 120 and 240 volts, so it can run a well pump or other 240-volt equipment through proper transfer equipment. Of the 16 household loads we track, it can handle 16.

It must run outside. The exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which you cannot smell and which kills.

Outdoor use only

This generator burns fuel and produces carbon monoxide. Run it outdoors only, well away from doors, windows and vents, with the exhaust pointed away from the building. Fit working CO alarms indoors. CO Sensor Shutdown: Yes (CO Alert automatically shuts down if CO levels rise)

Recall screen

No published recall names this exact model

No CPSC recall in the 2026-10-13 snapshot names this exact model. No recall in the snapshot names this brand at all, so finding nothing here says less.

This check cannot clear your own unit. Most recalls cover only certain serial numbers. Read the model and serial number off the label on the unit itself, then check the maker's recall page before you use it, sell it, or buy it.

Output

Running output depends on the fuelwatts
on propane10,000 on gasoline10,500

Propane carries less energy per unit than gasoline, so a dual-fuel generator puts out less on gas. Size on the lower figure if propane is your fallback fuel.

Continuous output
10,500W
Starting / surge

Output voltage
120/240V
Supplies 240V, so it can run a well pump or other 240V load — through correctly installed transfer equipment, never a cord into an outlet.

Fuel and runtime

FuelRunningStartingTank Runtime at 50% load
Gasoline 10,500W 13,000W 8.3 gal 8.5h
Propane (LPG) 10,000W 12,500W not stated 6.5h

Runtime is quoted at half load. Your actual runtime falls as load rises, and refuelling a hot generator is itself a burn and fire hazard — let it cool first.

Outlets

  • four 120V 20A 5-20R (GFCI)
  • 120V 30A L5-30R
  • 120/240V 30A L14-30R
  • 120/240V 50A 14-50R

Outlet configuration decides what you can plug in directly. Powering house circuits instead of appliances requires a transfer switch or inlet installed by a licensed electrician.

Safety boundary

  • Outdoor only. Carbon monoxide from this unit is lethal and undetectable by smell.
  • Backfeeding is prohibited. Never run a cord from this generator into a wall outlet. It can kill line workers restoring your power.
  • Any connection to building wiring requires a licensed electrician and, in most places, a permit and inspection.
  • Store fuel safely and away from the running unit. Let the engine cool before refuelling.
