Benefits of Installing a Whole-Home Generator
Compared to portable generators, standby generators offer homeowners several important benefits, including:
- Automatic operation: Whole-home generators use an automatic transfer switch that senses when the power is out, starts the generator, and transfers the electrical load in a matter of seconds, ensuring as little disruption as possible.
- Power for your entire home: A whole-home generator can power everything from your HVAC systems and refrigerator to stoves, medical devices, emergency radios, and internet devices.
- Safe, secure wiring: Whole-home generators are permanently wired into your home, with no need for extension cords like portable generators.
- Permanent fuel supply: There’s no need to refuel during outages. Your whole-home generator can power your home for extended periods.
