If you lose power to your home for a couple of hours it really is nothing more than a minor inconvenience, for some people it can actually be fun. The fun comes to a grinding halt however when a major storm roars through the area and knocks out power for days on end. Life without a Guardian generator in River Forest can be miserable, food spoils in the refrigerator, basements begin to take on water because the sump pump can’t work and if it happens in the winter, heaven forbid if there is no heat in the house. A backup generator is the optimum solution.
How do you size a generator?
Homes today are far more power hungry than homes of twenty or thirty years ago, most homes today are full of high-tech equipment, most of which is controlled by advanced electronics, the slightest power irregularity can quickly destroy them.
Generac and other generator manufacturers have made sizing about as simple as it can be, they have developed tools that a homeowner can access on the internet. It doesn’t take much more than inputting the square footage of the house and a list of the appliances that need to continue functioning in a power outage. The majority of homeowners consider the refrigerator, a microwave, at least one PC, a couple of fans and the security system as mandatory. Of course, if a homeowner is unsure of their calculations they can ask for help. Guardian generator in River Forest is happy to recommend the proper size.
Generators are becoming more affordable:
Permanent generators are rapidly becoming more affordable, this makes them more attractive to those in their fifties to replace their less powerful and inconvenient portable generators. A permanent standby generator is ready to automatically take over when the utility company fails; safety and security are guaranteed.
