Backup Generators: Power Through the Storm
When a storm rages on, birds huddle together for protection. Similarly, when a power outage strikes, your home needs robust backup in the form of backup generators. This is where Swanton Energy steps in, offering steadfast generator services to equip your home to weather any storm confidently.
What Are Backup Generators and Why Should You Invest in One?
A backup generator is a device that provides temporary power to your home in the event of an electrical outage. The power from these backup generators can keep essential systems like the sump pump working and maintain necessary appliances running. Depending on your power requirements, you may opt for natural gas, liquid propane, or diesel-fueled generators.
Guard Against Unexpected Power Outages
With backup generators from Swanton Energy as your guardian, you can ensure that tranquility in your home remains undisturbed. If your power supply unexpectedly plummets, your backup generator swiftly steps in, restoring electricity to your home until regular power resumes.
Moreover, a generator from Swanton Energy offers the following benefits:
- Navigate through any power outage comfortably and safely
- Avert expensive mishaps by keeping essential systems like sump pumps operational
- Save money by maintaining the temperature of refrigerated food
- Smoothly carry on with your daily routine
Regrettably, many homeowners only consider purchasing a generator when a severe storm or power outage leaves their home devoid of electricity. By then, it’s too late, and the only option left is to brave the storm without backup. However, without a reliable source of backup power, surviving the storm can be a challenging ordeal.
A Flight Plan You Can Trust
The risk of power loss is high during storms. However, you can circumvent this risk by installing a whole-house generator from Swanton Energy before the storm hits.
A standby generator from Swanton Energy is permanently installed outside your home and continuously monitors your electrical system. If it senses a power loss, it automatically turns on within moments, safely supplying power directly to your home.
The greatest advantage of a standby generator is its autonomous operation. You don’t have to be present to start or stop your generator as it manages its functioning independently, giving you peace of mind.
Regular Generator Maintenance for Uninterrupted Peace of Mind
Ensure your generator is ready to run when needed. Your generator is an engine that, like a car, requires regular maintenance for reliable performance. Safeguard your investment that stands ready to protect you, your family, and your home in the event of a power loss.
Without proper maintenance, a manufacturer may void your warranty. Our generator maintenance plan includes one visit per year. In case of an extended power loss and prolonged generator runtime, a tune-up visit may be required sooner than a year.
A generator maintenance visit includes:
- Replace spark plugs
- Replace air filter
- Replace oil filter
- Change oil
- Inspect motor & starting operation
- Inspect/clean air intake screens
- Inspect battery level and charger
- Inspect fuel line, check for leaks
