frequently asked questions

A standby power generator is a crucial addition to your home because it provides a reliable source of electricity during unexpected power outages. Whether caused by severe weather, grid failures, or unforeseen events, these outages can disrupt your daily life, compromise your safety, and jeopardize essential systems like heating, cooling, and medical equipment. A standby generator ensures that your home remains powered, preserving your comfort, security, and peace of mind when you need it most, making it an indispensable investment in your household’s resilience and well-being.

A standby power generator operates by automatically detecting when there’s a loss of electricity from the utility grid. Once it senses the outage, it swiftly begins to kick in. These generators are connected to your home’s electrical system through a transfer switch, which disconnects your house from the grid and connects it to the generator. 

The generator then starts up, typically powered by natural gas, and begins generating electricity. This power is fed into your home’s electrical system, providing electricity to the circuits and appliances you’ve designated as critical. When grid power is restored, the transfer switch disconnects the generator and switches your home back to the utility power source, ensuring a seamless transition.

Standby power generators are designed to work automatically, without any manual intervention, ensuring that your home remains powered during outages, protecting your essential systems, and allowing you to maintain comfort and safety.

Choosing the right size standby power generator involves assessing your power needs accurately. Begin by creating a list of essential appliances, systems, and circuits you want the generator to power during an outage. Calculate the total wattage requirements of these items, factoring in any additional power needed for startup (known as surge or starting watts) for appliances like air conditioners or well pumps. This calculation will give you a clear picture of your minimum power needs.

Next, consult with a licensed electrician or generator professional who can help you select a generator with the appropriate capacity. Generator sizes are typically categorized by their output in kilowatts (kW).

It’s crucial to choose a generator that can comfortably handle your calculated power requirements with some room for future expansion if needed. An adequately sized generator will ensure that your essential systems remain powered during an outage without overloading the generator or risking damage to your appliances.

A whole-house generator installation is a complex process that involves several crucial steps to ensure a seamless and reliable backup power solution for your home. First and foremost, a thorough assessment of your home’s electrical system is conducted to determine the most suitable location for the generator and its transfer switch. The transfer switch is a critical component that seamlessly transitions your home’s power source from the utility grid to the generator during an outage. It must be installed correctly to ensure a smooth and safe transition.

Once the installation location is determined, the generator is positioned, and all necessary electrical and fuel connections are made. This typically involves hardwiring the generator into your home’s electrical system and connecting it to a fuel source, such as natural gas or propane. Proper grounding is essential to ensure electrical safety. After the physical installation, a qualified technician tests the entire system to ensure it functions flawlessly. Regular maintenance and occasional testing after that are essential to keep your standby generator in top condition, ensuring it’s ready to provide uninterrupted power during any outage. 

Overall, a whole-house generator installation is a specialized task best entrusted to professionals who can assess your specific requirements, comply with local codes, and ensure the system operates safely and reliably.
