Home generators are handy in a variety of situations:
Working much like the engine in your car, 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. In the event of a power outage, home generators allow you to more easily stay safe and comfortable until power is restored. A generator can keep your refrigerator, freezer, sump pump, furnace, stove, lights, fans, and more operational when you experience power loss.
Blackouts
Extremes in temperature can prevent the power grid from generating enough energy to meet demand.
Inclement Weather
Lightning, hurricanes, tornadoes, snowstorms, and heavy winds can knock down power lines and damage transformers.
Damage from Animals
Destruction of power equipment by animals is second only to severe weather as a leading cause of power loss.
Natural Disasters
Earthquakes, floods, and fires cause widespread power outages for millions of consumers each year.
Auto Accidents
Cars colliding with power poles cause unexpected interruptions in service by damaging electrical equipment
Types of Home Generators
Portable Home Generators
Portable home generators power a few essentials in your home until power is restored. They must be manually started and connected to the necessary appliances. Portable models cost less than standby models, typically around $500 to $1,500, but they can only operate a few appliances at once. They also come with the added danger of carbon monoxide poisoning if they are operated in improper locations.
Home Standby Generators
Home standby generators are typically powered with natural gas or propane. Used in conjunction with automatic transfer switches, they turn on automatically when the power goes out in order to prevent an interruption in service. However, that convenience and peace of mind will come at a cost: home standby generators typically range in price from $5,000 to $15,000. The investment may be worth it when most of your home's electrical devices seamlessly transition to backup power whenever your electricity goes out.
