This week Jamie traveled to Hattisburg, MS partly for a tour of the Rehlko/Kohler manufacturing facility that produces engines and generators. It was very impressive to see how a raw forged crankshaft progresses though manufacturing in the plant to become a complete run tested engine and then get assembled into a home standby generator at the second plant a mile away.
There are many reasons why we only sell Kohler generators anymore. Manufacturing quality is one of the bigger ones.
Meteorologist Nick Lacour finds out about what types of standby generators are manufactured at their Hattiesburg Assembly Plant.
