DuroMax XP13000HXT 13,000 Watt Tri-Fuel Generator Overview
The DuroMax XP13000HXT is a 13,000-watt electric start tri-fuel portable generator with a CO alert feature. It can run on gasoline, propane or natural gas, so you can match the fuel to what is available during an outage.
It is built for whole-home backup, including your air conditioning. Copper windings keep total harmonic distortion under 5%, and the fully loaded power panel and all-metal build round out the design.
Key Features
- Tri-fuel capability: gasoline, propane or natural gas
- Clean copper windings with total harmonic distortion below 5%
- 13,000 peak watts on gasoline, with 12,500 on propane and 11,250 on natural gas
- 500cc OHV engine with push-button electric start and a recoil start
- CO sensor shutdown and automatic low-oil shutdown
- Includes a 4-foot propane hose with regulator and a 15-foot natural gas hose
- All-metal construction with a 5-year warranty and USA-based support
Who It’s For
This generator is for homeowners who want flexible fuel options for whole-home backup, and for anyone who values clean power for electronics. The fuel choice helps when one supply is limited or unavailable.

Frequently asked questions
How much power does the DuroMax XP13000HXT produce on each fuel?
On gasoline the XP13000HXT produces 13,000 peak and 10,500 running watts. On propane it delivers 12,500 peak and 10,000 running watts, and on natural gas 11,250 peak and 9,000 running watts. Copper windings keep total harmonic distortion under 5%.
How long does the XP13000HXT run on a tank?
On gasoline the 8.3 gallon tank gives 17 hours at 25% load and 8.5 hours at 50% load. On propane the listing gives 13 hours at 25% load and 6.5 hours at 50% load. No run time is stated for natural gas.
What outlets does the XP13000HXT have?
The panel has four 5-20R GFCI outlets, one L5-30R, one L14-30R and one 14-50R, at 120/240 volts, plus a digital voltmeter, hour meter and battery switch. The listing marks it RV ready and home backup ready.
Does the DuroMax XP13000HXT have CO shutoff?
Yes. A CO sensor shuts the generator down when carbon monoxide builds up, and an automatic low-oil shutdown protects the 500cc OHV engine. Starting is push-button electric with a recoil backup, using the included 12V SLA battery.
Is the XP13000HXT 50-state compliant?
No. The listing states it is EPA certified but not 50 state compliant and not for sale to California. Natural gas operation requires 6.0 to 9.0 inches of water column and 225,000 BTU at full load; a 15-foot natural gas hose and 4-foot propane hose with regulator are included.
How loud and heavy is the XP13000HXT?
It is rated at 74 dB. Dry weight is 240 lbs, and the unit measures 30 inches long, 29 inches wide and 26 inches high, so the included wheel and handle kit with 10-inch metal hub wheels matters for moving it.
