Quality Generator Installation in Burlington
If you’ve never owned a standby generator, you may be unfamiliar with how they work. We sell and install generators that can power part or all of your home during a grid failure.
Most whole-home standby generators connect to your home’s existing natural gas supply. That ensures they have ample fuel to last through any length of an outage. If your home doesn’t use natural gas, you can opt for a propane-powered generator. They come with fuel storage tanks large enough to hold up to a two-week supply.
Installing a standby generator requires some modifications to your home’s electrical system. If you choose a whole-home generator, you’ll need an automatic transfer switch installed. It sits between your home’s incoming power supply from the grid and your home’s main electrical panel.
When it detects a loss of grid power, it starts your generator and switches your home to its supply. If you choose a partial-load generator, you must first select the circuits you’d like your generator to serve. Then, those circuits would get relocated into a dedicated sub-panel. The transfer switch would then sit between it and your home’s main electrical panel.
A generator installation is a wise investment because of its many benefits.
- Increased safety and security
- Eliminates costly food spoilage
- Ensures uninterrupted HVAC operation
- Prevents frozen pipes during grid failure
- Increases property value
Like all machines, home generators can occasionally malfunction. We offer comprehensive generator repair services in case of such an event.
