Whole-Home Generators

Residential Generator Installation In Hammond

Hammond Whole-Home Generators

You may be familiar with the smaller, gasoline-powered generators that they have at your local hardware store. You might even own one in case of emergencies when the power goes out. While these portable generators are useful, they can usually only power one device or appliance at a time for a few hours on a full tank of gas.

Fortunately, there’s an alternative to these portable power generators — whole-home generators. As the name implies, whole-home backup generators are able to power your entire home during a blackout. They’re also connected directly to a fuel source, which allows them to provide days of emergency power instead of hours!

Benefits Of A Backup Generator

Severe storms and power line malfunctions do much more than just knock the lights out in your home. Power outages, especially ones that last long periods of time, can become more than an inconvenience – they can jeopardize your family’s safety. These are some of the main things a backup generator powers to help keep your household safe.

Heating And Cooling System

Being without air conditioning in the Louisiana heat can pose a threat to your health, especially during peak summer months. With a whole home generator, you’ll be able to stay comfortable during any outage.

Fridge And Freezer

Your fridge and freezer work hard to keep your food cold enough so that it doesn’t go bad, but when the power goes out, things start to heat up in there. When your appliances are powered by a generator, your perishables won’t be at risk of spoiling. You won’t have to choose between the risk of eating unsafe food or wasting your hard-earned money by throwing the food away.

Oven, Stove And Microwave

This is an issue some of us may not consider right away, but when you’re without power for long periods of time you won’t be able to use any cooking appliances to prepare meals. That means you’ll either have to stick to ready-to-eat foods, or potentially put yourself in a dangerous situation by going out in a storm to find sustenance.

Home Security Systems

Some of us have home alarm systems, security lighting and video camera doorbells to alert us of intruders attempting to enter our homes. Without power, these smart home systems aren’t able to function, leaving our homes and families vulnerable.

Choosing The Best Generator For Your Home

Generators aren’t a one-size-fits-all solution for every home. Even if you’re certain that a backup generator would be right for you, there are many available options to choose from. Some of the things to consider when choosing a generator for your home include:

  • Manual vs. automatic transfer
  • Fuel source powering the generator
  • Number of appliances that need power
  • Size for your home

And these are only a few things on the long list of factors used to determine which generator will be the best fit for your home. This is why it’s important to schedule a consultation with a certified technician who can determine the best available options.

Professional & Very Courteous

The HVAC System stopped when my Generator quit. When restarting the generator, the AC did not restart. Manuel came out, checked the entire system & got it working in 20 minutes. He was brilliant, professional & very courteous. I’ve use this company for over 25 years & have always been completely satisfied with their service.
