Generators

An automatic backup generator uses natural gas or liquid propane fuel to power your home or business during a power outage from your Utility. An Automatic Backup Generator sits outside your home or business similar to an Air Conditioner, and is wired to startup immediately without any required action from you the moment your property loses power.

An automatic generator will give you numerous advantages over a portable generator. First, as the name implies, an automatic generator will start automatically the very moment your property loses power. In contrast, a portable generator requires your manual setup, and therefore your property will be without power until you personally have the time and ability to connect your portable generator to your home. The American Red Cross also recommends a permanently installed backup generator as a safer way to provide backup power to your home. Additionally, an automatic backup generator is set to exercise itself every 2 weeks all year long which gives you the peace of mind that your automatic generator is ready for use whenever it may be called upon.

The generator’s automatic transfer switch monitors the power coming from the utility. When it detects a loss of power it sends a signal to the generator to start. This typically only takes a few seconds. Once the generator is running, the automatic transfer switch will safely disconnect the utility line and transfer power generation responsibility to the generator. The generator then supplies power directly to the home's electrical panel.

When utility power is restored the automatic transfer switch will detect this and switch back to utility power and signal for the generator to shut off. After shutting off, the generator will go through a cool down process before it returns to standby mode, preparing you for the next power outage.
