Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You purchased a Generac PWRcell solar energy storage system that included SnapRS (Rapid Shutdown) components.
  • You experienced issues with your SnapRS units, such as failures, malfunctions, or performance problems.
  • You are a U.S. resident who owned or installed a qualifying Generac PWRcell system during the relevant class period (specific dates pending — check the official settlement website for confirmed date ranges).
  • You have not previously released your claims against Generac related to this issue.

How Much Can You Get?

The total settlement fund is $15 million, which will be distributed among eligible claimants. The exact amount each person receives will depend on the number of valid claims filed and the specifics of each claimant's situation — such as how many SnapRS units they had and what costs or damages they incurred. Because the per-claimant payout details have not been publicly specified in the available settlement information, the actual amount you receive may vary. Generally speaking, claimants with documented repair costs, replacement expenses, or other out-of-pocket losses related to their SnapRS units may receive higher compensation. With a $15 million fund and proof of purchase or related documentation required, it's important to gather your records now so you're ready to maximize your claim when you file.
