Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation Description of Business Generac Holdings Inc. (the Company) owns all of the common stock of Generac Acquisition Corp. (the Parent), which in turn, owns all of the common stock of Generac Power Systems, Inc. (the Subsidiary). The Company is a leading designer and manufacturer of a wide range of generators and other engine powered products for the residential, light commercial, industrial and construction markets. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows, have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Expenses are charged to operations in the year incurred. However, for interim reporting purposes certain expenses are charged to operations based on a proportionate share of annual amounts rather than as they are actually incurred. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | 2. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company records all derivatives in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), which requires all derivative instruments be reported in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of hedging relationships. The Company is exposed to market risk such as changes in commodity prices, foreign currencies, and interest rates. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Commodities The primary objectives of the Company's commodity risk management activities are to understand and mitigate the impact of potential price fluctuations on the Company's financial results and its economic well-being. While the Company's risk management objectives and strategies will be driven from an economic perspective, it attempts, where possible and practical, to ensure that the hedging strategies it engages in can be treated as "hedges" from an accounting perspective or otherwise result in accounting treatment where the earnings effect of the hedging instrument provides substantial offset (in the same period) to the earnings effect of the hedged item. Generally, these risk management transactions will involve the use of commodity derivatives to protect against exposure resulting from significant price fluctuations. The Company primarily utilizes commodity contracts with maturities of less than 12 months. The impact of such contracts is intended to offset the effect of price fluctuations on actual inventory purchases. There was one outstanding commodity forward contract in place to hedge the Company's projected commodity purchases at September 30, 2012. In May 2012, the Company entered into a commodity forward contract to purchase $1,898 of copper. The contract is effective from July 1, 2012 and terminates on December 31, 2012. In November 2010, the Company entered into a commodity forward contract to purchase $2,296 of copper. The contract was effective from January 1, 2011, and terminated on April 30, 2011. In February 2011, the Company entered into a commodity forward contract to purchase $2,378 of copper. The contract was effective from March 1, 2011, and terminated on December 31, 2011. In March 2011, the Company entered into a commodity forward contract to purchase $2,100 of copper. The contract was effective from April 1, 2011, and terminated on December 31, 2011. In September 2011, the Company entered into two commodity forward contracts, to purchase $4,533 and $1,935 of copper. The contracts were effective from October 1, 2011, and terminated on June 30, 2012. Total gains recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income were $68 and $322 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The losses recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income were $1,415 and $1,401 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Foreign Currencies The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk as a result of transactions denominated in other currencies. The Company periodically utilizes foreign currency forward purchase and sales contracts to manage the volatility associated with foreign currency purchases in the normal course of business. Contracts typically have maturities of 12 months or less. There were no foreign currency hedge contracts outstanding as of September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011. Interest Rate Swaps The Company had three interest rate swap agreements outstanding as of September 30, 2012. In 2010, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements. The first was entered into on January 21, 2010. The effective date of this swap was July 1, 2010 with a notional amount of $200,000, a fixed rate of 1.73% and an expiration date of July 1, 2012. The second was entered into on June 29, 2010. The effective date of that swap was October 1, 2010 with a notional amount of $100,000, a fixed rate of 1.025% and an expiration date of October 1, 2012. The Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements on April 1, 2011. The effective date of the first swap was July 1, 2012 with a notional amount of $200,000, a fixed rate of 1.905% and an expiration date of July 1, 2013. The effective date of the second swap is October 1, 2012 with a notional amount of $100,000, a fixed rate of 2.22% and an expiration date of October 1, 2013. As noted above, the Company entered into various interest rate swap agreements in 2010 and 2011. The Company had formally documented all relationships between interest rate hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. From inception through February 9, 2012, the Company's interest rate swap agreements qualified as cash flow hedges. For derivatives that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative's change in fair value is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the derivatives' change in fair value, if any, is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company assesses on an ongoing basis whether derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items. The impact of hedge ineffectiveness on earnings was not material for the periods prior to February 9, 2012. As discussed in Note 8 – Credit Agreements, on February 9, 2012, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a new credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with certain commercial banks and other lenders. The Credit Agreement provided for a $150,000 revolving credit facility, a $325,000 tranche A term loan facility and a $250,000 tranche B term loan facility. Proceeds received by the Company from loans made under the Credit Agreement were used to repay in full all outstanding borrowings under the Company's former credit agreement, dated November 10, 2006, as amended from time to time. The future cash flows associated with the Credit Agreement were materially consistent with that of the former credit agreement, resulting in the continued designation of the interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges. However, as a result of a change in certain critical terms between the Credit Agreement and former credit agreement, the interest rate swap agreements in place on the date of refinancing were required to be measured for hedge effectiveness. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the cash flow hedges was not material for the period from February 9, 2012 to May 30, 2012. The following table presents the fair value of the Company's derivatives:
The fair value of the interest rate swaps is included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of the commodity contracts is included in other assets and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The fair value of the derivative contracts considers the Company's credit risk. Excluding the impact of credit risk, the fair value of the derivative contracts as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is a liability of $(4,207) and $(5,780), respectively, which represents the amount the Company would need to pay to exit the agreements on those dates. The following presents the impact of interest rate swaps and commodity contracts on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

Fair Value Measurements | 3. Fair Value Measurements ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis. ASC 820-10 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the pronouncement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on the market approach, which uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Company believes the carrying amount of its financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities), excluding long-term debt, approximates the fair value of these instruments based upon their short-term nature. The fair value of long-term debt was approximately $893,527 (Level 2) at September 30, 2012, as calculated based on independent valuations whose inputs and significant value drivers are observable. Assets (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of derivative contracts classified as level 2, all of which have counterparties with high credit ratings, were valued based on quoted market prices or model driven valuations using significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair value of derivative contracts above considers the Company's credit risk in accordance with ASC 820-10. |

Credit Agreements [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Credit Agreements | 8. Credit Agreements Long-term debt consists of the following:
On February 9, 2012, a subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrower" or "Generac Power Systems") entered into a new credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with certain commercial banks and other lenders. The Credit Agreement provided for borrowings under a $150,000 revolving credit facility, a $325,000 tranche A term loan facility and a $250,000 tranche B term loan facility. The revolving credit facility and tranche A term loan facility were scheduled to mature in February 2017 and the tranche B term loan facility was scheduled to mature in February 2019. Proceeds received by the Company from loans made under the Credit Agreement were used to repay in full all outstanding borrowings under the former credit agreement, dated as of November 10, 2006, as amended from time to time, and for general corporate purposes. The Company's former credit agreement was comprised of a revolving credit facility and a first-lien term loan which were scheduled to mature in November 2012 and November 2013, respectively. On May 30, 2012, the Borrower amended and restated its then existing Credit Agreement by entering into a new credit agreement ("Term Loan Credit Agreement") with certain commercial banks and other lenders. The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for a $900,000 term loan B credit facility ("Term Loan") and a $125,000 uncommitted incremental term loan facility. The Term Loan Credit Agreement matures on May 30, 2018. Proceeds from the Term Loan were used to repay the Company's previous Credit Agreement. The remaining proceeds from the Term Loan were used, along with cash on hand, to pay a special cash dividend of $6.00 per share on the Company's common stock (see Note #13 – Special Cash Dividend). The Term Loan is guaranteed by all of the Borrower's wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries and the Parent, and is secured by associated collateral agreements which pledge a first priority lien on virtually all of the Borrower's assets, including fixed assets and intangibles, and the assets of the guarantors (other than the Company), other than all cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory, and other current assets and proceeds thereof, which are secured by a second priority lien. The Term Loan amortizes in equal installments of 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan payable on the first day of April, July, October and January commencing on October 1, 2012 until the maturity date of the Term Loan. The final principal repayment installment of the Term Loan is required to be repaid on the maturity date in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan outstanding on such date. The Term Loan initially bears interest at rates based upon either a base rate plus an applicable margin of 4.00% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 5.00%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.25%. The Term Loan Credit Agreement restricts the circumstances in which the Borrower can pay distributions and dividends, which are in addition to those to be paid in connection with the Transactions (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement). Payments can be made by the Borrower to the Company or other parent companies for certain expenses such as operating expenses in the ordinary course, fees and expenses related to any debt or equity offering and to pay franchise or similar taxes. Dividends can be used to repurchase equity interests, subject to limitations in certain circumstances. Additionally, the Term Loan Credit Agreement restricts the aggregate amount of dividends and distributions that can be paid and, in certain circumstances, requires Pro Forma (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) compliance with certain fixed charge coverage ratios in order to pay certain dividends or distributions. The Term Loan Credit Agreement also contains certain other affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, provide limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens on property, sale and leaseback transactions, investments, loans and advances, mergers or consolidations, asset sales, acquisitions, transactions with affiliates, prepayments of certain other indebtedness and modifications of the Company's organizational documents. The Term Loan Credit Agreement does not contain any financial maintenance covenants. The Term Loan Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, among others, nonpayment of principal, interest or other amounts, failure to perform covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties in any material respect, cross-defaults with other material indebtedness, certain undischarged judgments, the occurrence of certain ERISA or bankruptcy or insolvency events or the occurrence of a change in control (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement). A bankruptcy or insolvency event of default causes such obligations to automatically become immediately due and payable. Concurrent with the closing of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, on May 30, 2012, the Borrower also entered into a new revolving credit agreement (the "ABL Credit Agreement") with certain commercial banks and other lenders. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for borrowings under a $150,000 senior secured ABL revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility"). The size of the ABL Facility could increase by $50,000 pursuant to an uncommitted incremental credit facility. The ABL Credit Agreement matures May 30, 2017. Borrowings under the ABL Facility are guaranteed by all of the Borrower's wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries and the Parent, and are secured by associated collateral agreements which pledge a first priority lien on all cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory, and other current assets and proceeds thereof, and a second priority lien on all other assets, including fixed assets and intangibles of the Borrower, certain domestic subsidiaries of the Borrower and the guarantors (other than the Company). Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at rates based upon either a base rate plus an applicable margin of 1.00% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 2.00%, in each case, subject to adjustments based upon average availability under the ABL Facility. The ABL Credit Agreement requires the Borrower to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0x, tested on a quarterly basis, when Availability plus the amount of Qualified Cash (up to $5,000) (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) under the ABL Facility is less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the lesser of the aggregate commitments and the applicable borrowing base under the ABL Facility or (ii) $10,000. The ABL Credit Agreement also contains covenants and events of default substantially similar to those in the Term Loan Credit Agreement, as described above. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had $144,665 of availability under the ABL facility, net of outstanding letters of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility as of September 30, 2012. In connection with the February 9, 2012 refinancing and in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, the Company capitalized $10,409 of new debt issuance costs, recorded $1,386 of fees paid to creditors as a debt discount, and expensed $1,407 of transaction fees. The Company evaluated on a lender by lender basis if the debt related to returning lenders was significantly modified or not, resulting in the write-off of $2,902 in unamortized debt issuance costs relating to the former credit agreement. Amounts expensed are recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. In connection with the May 30, 2012 refinancing and in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, the Company capitalized $15,309 of new debt issuance costs, recorded $18,000 of fees paid to creditors as a debt discount, and expensed $801 of transaction fees. The Company evaluated on a lender by lender basis if the debt related to returning lenders was significantly modified or not, resulting in the write-off of $9,198 in unamortized debt issuance costs relating to the Credit Agreement. Amounts expensed are recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company amortizes both the capitalized debt issuance costs and the original issue discount on its loans under the effective interest method. The Company incurred an additional $993 of financing and dividend related fees that are recorded as a component of other expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. |

Special Cash Dividend [Abstract] | |
Special Cash Dividend | 13. Special Cash Dividend On June 29, 2012, the Company used a portion of the proceeds from the May 30, 2012 debt refinancing (see Note #8 – Credit Agreement) together with cash on its balance sheet to pay a special cash dividend of $6.00 per share on its common stock, resulting in payments totaling $404,332 to shareholders. Dividends declared but unpaid as of September 30, 2012 of $3,999, which relate to dividends earned on unvested restricted stock awards, are included in other accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In connection with the special dividend, and pursuant to the terms of the Company's stock option plan, certain adjustments were required to be made to stock options outstanding under the plan in order to avoid dilution of the intended benefits which would otherwise result as a consequence of the special dividend. As such, on July 2, 2012, the strike price for all outstanding stock options was modified by the $6.00 special dividend amount. There was no change to compensation expense as a result of this adjustment. Dividends have been recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as the Company has an accumulated deficit balance. |
