4 Reasons You Need a Standby Generator

There are several reasons why adding a whole-home generator to your Greenville-area property is a wise decision for your home, including:

  • Uninterrupted power supply: Generators ensure you have power during blackouts, keeping essential appliances like refrigerators, medical equipment, and HVAC systems running smoothly.
  • Protection against outages: Storms, hurricanes, and extreme weather can cause prolonged power failures, and a generator can keep your home or business powered during these emergency events.
  • Increased home value: A standby generator can boost your property value and provide peace of mind by keeping security systems, lights, and communication devices functional.
  • Business as usual: For businesses, a generator prevents downtime, protects perishable goods, and keeps operations running smoothly, avoiding financial losses during blackouts.

4 Signs To Replace Your Standby Generator

Like all home appliances, standby generators have a finite lifespan, and it’s important to be aware of the signs your system needs replacement. Here are the key indicators to look out for that show it’s time to consider getting a new generator:

  • Frequent breakdowns: If your generator requires constant repairs or has recurring issues, replacing it may be more cost-effective than continued maintenance.
  • Failing performance: Startup failures, power fluctuations, and power inconsistencies during emergencies are all indicative of a system that’s no longer reliable.
  • Outdated technology: Older models may lack modern efficiency and safety features, making them less effective compared to newer, more energy-efficient models.
  • Fuel consumption: When you notice your generator consuming more fuel than usual to produce the same or less power, it can point to internal damage and declining efficiency.

Whole-Home Generators vs. Portable Generators

When adding a generator to your property, there are typically two options to consider: a standby generator or a portable generator. Standby (or whole-home) generators automatically activate when the grid goes down, enhancing convenience without the need for manual startup. They are also built to support multiple systems, keeping essential appliances running smoothly throughout the duration of a power outage.

By contrast, portable generators require manual startup to function during a power outage. They’re typically smaller than their standby counterparts and, therefore, cannot support larger appliances that demand a lot of power to remain functional. For this reason, they are not ideal when looking for a solution to power an entire property during a prolonged emergency.
