  • In the event of a power outage, home generators allow you to more easily meet basic life requirements until power is restored. They are useful in maintaining the operation of refrigerators, freezers, sump pumps, furnaces, stoves, lights, fans, yard equipment, and more, in the event of both short and longstanding power outages. Working much like the engine in your automobile, home generators create mechanical energy by converting fuel (gasoline, diesel, or natural gas) into electrical power with the help of a heavy-duty recharging battery.

    Home generators are handy in a variety of situations:

    • Blackouts: extremes in temperature and other times when there simply isn't enough energy to meet demand.
    • Inclement weather: lightning, hurricanes, tornadoes, snowstorms and heavy wind.
    • Damage from animals: second only to severe weather as a leading cause of power loss.
    • Natural disasters: earthquakes, floods and fires.
    • Auto accidents: interruptions in service resulting from unexpectedly and irrevocably damaged electrical equipment.

Types of Home Generators

Portable

Portable home generators power a few basic essentials in your home until power is restored. They must be manually started and then connected to necessary appliances, as well as continually refuled. Portable models cost less than standby models, but operate fewer appliances. They also come with the added danger of carbon monoxide risks when operated in improper locations.

Automatic Standby

Typically natural gas or propane powered automatic standby backup power generators cost more than portable models, but can manage all or most of your home's electrical needs when power goes out. Used in conjunction with automatic transfer switches, they turn on automatically when power goes out in order to prevent an interruption in service.

  • It is important to properly calculate the wattage on essential items you wish to run with your generator simultaneously to determine the right capacity generator to meet your needs. Be certain to discuss electrical essentials with a Mr. Electric® professional in order to prevent undersized generators and overloading at startup.

    Never find yourself without power with the addition of a home generator. Contact a professional at Mr. Electric today for a free in-home consultation and to learn more about finding the perfect generator solution for your home's backup power needs.
