The runtime of a home generator depends on various factors, such as the generator’s fuel capacity, load demand, and the type of fuel being used. Generators typically range in runtime from several hours to multiple days. It’s important to consider your expected power needs during an outage and select a generator with a runtime that aligns with those requirements. Additionally, some generators offer the option to connect to external fuel sources for extended runtime.

While some portable generators can be self-installed with proper knowledge and precautions, it is highly recommended to have a professional handle the installation of a home standby generator system. Professional installation ensures that the generator is correctly connected to your electrical system and complies with local building codes and safety regulations. It may involve tasks such as site assessment, electrical panel upgrades, generator placement, wiring, and configuring an automatic transfer switch. A professional installer will ensure a seamless and safe integration of the generator into your home’s electrical infrastructure.

Home generators are commonly fueled by natural gas, propane, or diesel. The choice of fuel depends on factors such as availability, convenience, and personal preference. Natural gas is often preferred for its low emissions and continuous supply from utility lines. Propane offers portability and versatility since it can be stored in large tanks on-site. Diesel is commonly used in commercial settings and provides high power output. Ultimately, the fuel option should be chosen based on your specific needs and circumstances.

EVS Energy uses Generac Generators to power your home during an outage.

A home generator is a backup power system designed to provide electricity during power outages. It consists of an engine that runs on a fuel source, such as natural gas, propane, or diesel, which drives an alternator to produce electrical power. When a power outage occurs, the generator automatically detects the loss of utility power and starts up, supplying electricity to your home through a transfer switch.

Choosing the right-sized generator depends on several factors, including the square footage of your home, the electrical load you want to support, and any specific appliances or systems you want to prioritize during an outage. It’s recommended to consult with a qualified electrician or generator specialist who can assess your specific needs and help you select the appropriate generator size to ensure optimal performance and cost-effectiveness.

Installing a home generator offers several benefits. First and foremost, it provides peace of mind by ensuring that you have a reliable source of power during blackouts or other emergencies. This means you can keep essential appliances and systems running, such as lights, refrigerators, heating or cooling systems, medical equipment, and security systems. A home generator also helps prevent food spoilage, protects electronic devices from damage caused by power surges, and maintains a comfortable living environment.
