A power outage leaves the fridge warm and the lights dark. Without a plan, families scramble for flashlights and ice. A generator keeps the essentials running while the grid recovers. The right installation starts with a careful look at your electrical system.
What Backup Power Should Protect
Most families start by listing the essentials. Refrigerators, lights, heat, and key outlets usually top the list. Next, we compare those needs with your panel's capacity. Then we recommend a system that fits your home.
Why does a generator need a transfer switch? A transfer switch safely connects the generator to your home's wiring.
