Winter weather, like the recent snow and ice, remind us just how important reliable power is—especially when temperatures drop below freezing like they have in January and February this year.
A whole-home backup generator is the ultimate solution for maintaining comfort, safety, and functionality during unexpected outages. Whether you're protecting your family, your property, or even your business, a backup generator ensures that the power stays on when you need it most.
Why Choose a Whole-Home Backup Generator?
Prevent Food Spoilage: Keep your refrigerator and freezer running, saving expensive groceries from spoiling.
Maintain Comfort: Power your heating or cooling system, ensuring your home stays livable no matter the weather.
Protect Essential Devices: Make sure needed electrical medical equipment remains functional during an outage.
Save From Repairs: Avoid costly damage by keeping your sump pump operational.
Protect Pets/Livestock: Provide warmth and safety for your animals in freezing temperatures.
How Backup Generators Work
Modern backup generators come equipped with an automatic transfer switch, a feature that makes them incredibly user-friendly. This switch monitors the incoming power supply and automatically activates the generator when an outage occurs. You won't even need to step outside—the system takes care of everything seamlessly. Once power is restored, the generator shuts off, and your home reconnects to the main power grid automatically.
Custom Solutions for Your Home or Business
If you're interested in a backup generator being installed in your home or business, then contact a qualified electrical company in your area. Upon arrival, the licensed electrician can begin to assess your home and your family's needs. The electrician will work with you to find the correct size and type generator for your home. You may only want the basics to remain on during an outage, such as your refrigerator and heater, or you may choose to price a unit that will allow for your home to run just as normal. Your generator will be located outside of your home, and the electrician can help you determine the most aesthetically appealing, cost-effective location. Some backup generators are kept in stock, but if your generator needs to be ordered, it's usually available within a couple of weeks. Your generator can normally be installed within one business day.
