FAQs
How does a standby generator work during a power outage?
A standby generator automatically turns on when it detects a loss of utility power. It connects through a transfer switch that safely shifts your home to generator power. Once grid power returns, the system switches back automatically. This seamless transition keeps your lights, appliances and HVAC running without interruption.
What size generator does my home need?
Generator size depends on how much of your home you want powered during an outage. Some homeowners prioritize essential circuits, while others want full-home capability. We perform a detailed load assessment to recommend the right size for your appliances and electrical system. This ensures reliable performance without overload.
How long can a standby generator run continuously?
Most standby generators can operate for days as long as they have sufficient fuel supply. Natural gas systems run continuously without refueling, while propane units depend on tank size. Generators are built for extended operation during long outages. Regular maintenance keeps them ready for long-duration use.
Do standby generators require maintenance?
Yes, routine maintenance keeps the system reliable and ready for emergencies. This includes oil changes, filter replacements, battery checks and system testing. Many homeowners schedule annual or bi-annual service. Proper maintenance ensures fast startup and long-term durability.
Will a generator power my entire home?
Yes, if the generator is sized correctly. Whole-home generators can operate HVAC systems, refrigerators, lights, outlets and more. Smaller systems may power only selected circuits. We help you choose a system that fits your needs and budget.
Can I install a generator myself?
No. Standby generators require professional electrical work, gas line connections and code-compliant installation. Improper installation can create safety hazards, void warranties and cause system failure. Licensed installers ensure the generator operates safely and meets all local regulations.
What is a transfer switch and why is it important?
A transfer switch safely shifts your home from utility power to backup generator power during an outage. It prevents dangerous backfeeding into the power grid. Without a transfer switch, generator operation is unsafe and not code compliant. It’s essential for automatic, seamless operation.
How long does generator installation take?
Most installations take one to two days depending on the home’s electrical layout and fuel line requirements. After installation, the system is tested to ensure proper startup and automatic transfer. We handle all electrical, gas and permitting steps. You’re fully protected as soon as the installation is complete.
