Generac PWRcell Solar SnapRS Class Action Settlement — $15M Fund
See Details
Proof Required?
If you own or owned a Generac PWRcell solar energy system, you may be entitled to compensation from a $15 million class action settlement. The lawsuit centers on the SnapRS component — a safety device used in Generac's PWRcell solar systems — and allegations that it was defective or failed to perform as expected, potentially causing issues for homeowners who invested in the technology.
Generac, a well-known manufacturer of home energy solutions, is settling these claims without admitting wrongdoing. The $15 million fund will be distributed among eligible class members who submit valid claims, meaning the more people who file, the more the individual payout is spread across claimants (known as a pro rata distribution).
This settlement could be a meaningful opportunity to recover some of your costs if you experienced problems with your Generac PWRcell system or its SnapRS components. Read on to find out if you qualify and how to file your claim — or let Class Action Buddy walk you through the process.
Who Is Eligible?
You may be eligible to file a claim if you:
- You own or previously owned a Generac PWRcell solar energy system equipped with SnapRS components
- Your system experienced issues, malfunctions, or failures related to the SnapRS device
- You may have incurred out-of-pocket costs for repairs, replacements, or losses tied to the SnapRS component
- You are a U.S. resident who purchased or installed a qualifying Generac PWRcell system (specific date ranges to be confirmed — check the official settlement site for details)
- You have documentation of your system purchase, installation, or related losses to support a reimbursement claim
How Much Can You Get?
The total settlement fund is $15 million, which will be divided among all eligible claimants on a pro rata basis. This means your individual payout depends on how many people file valid claims — the fewer claimants, the higher each person's share. In addition to the base cash distribution, class members who can document specific out-of-pocket losses related to the SnapRS component (such as repair costs or equipment replacement) may be eligible for additional reimbursement.
Exact payout amounts per person have not been publicly specified, so the final figure will vary. To maximize your potential reimbursement, gather any receipts, invoices, or records related to your Generac PWRcell system and any SnapRS-related expenses before filing your claim.
