  • A backup generator is an essential system designed to provide power in the event of an outage. It automatically detects a power failure and kicks on to supply electricity, ensuring continuous operation of essential appliances and systems. These generators are installed externally and integrated with your property's electrical panel for seamless operation, minimizing any disruption to your daily activities or business operations.

Types of Generators


Selecting the right generator depends on various factors, including your power needs and the specific application. There are different types of generators to suit different requirements, including:  

Portable Home Generators  

Portable home generators are a popular choice for temporary power solutions. They are easy to move and can be used in various locations, making them ideal for outdoor events or emergencies. While these generators offer flexibility and are generally more cost-effective, they come with disadvantages. They require manual operation, frequent refueling, and have limited power output, making them less reliable than home standby generators for long-term use. 

Home Standby Generators 

Home standby generators are a more robust and reliable solution for continuous power supply. Unlike portable generators, they are permanently installed and will automatically activate during a power outage. These generators are directly connected to your home’s electrical system and can run on a continuous fuel supply like natural gas or propane. Their higher power output, longer run times, and low maintenance make them a superior choice for homeowners looking for a dependable power backup solution. 

Commercial Generators 

Commercial generators are vital for businesses, ensuring operations continue smoothly during power outages. A power failure in a commercial setting can lead to significant losses in productivity, profits, and customer confidence, not to mention the safety risks it poses to employees and customers. Commercial generators are designed to handle larger power loads and provide a reliable power source, protecting your business from the adverse effects of unexpected power disruptions.
