As a Florida contractor, we are well aware of the hazards of tropical storms and hurricanes. It is always best to be prepared for the worst. To that end, we sell and install hurricane screens, hurricane shutters, and impact windows, as well as Generac generators. We have found Generac to be the most trusted brand, and we are happy to partner with them. Here are the three types of Generac generators and their advantages.
Standby Generators
Standby generators are electrical systems used to back up your home’s power during an utility outage. They are installed into your home’s electrical system. When the generator senses a utility outage, it will kick on and power your home’s electrical system. When the power comes back on, the generator will automatically shut off.
Portable Generators
Portable generators are ones that you can use for emergency power in a natural disaster, but you can also use them for other things throughout the year. This is often the best value for people because they can get more use out of them. A portable generator can put out enough electricity to power small appliances and lights. Some of them can even power one major appliance.
Portable generators aren’t just good for emergency power. They are also great for camping, hosting outdoor events, and taking to job sites such as construction.
Towable Generators
If you believe that you may have to flee a natural disaster, a towable generator may be the best option. A towable generator can be used at home for emergency power, but it can also be hooked up to the back of a vehicle to be transported to any location. This will ensure that you have power wherever you go to seek shelter.
Generac Generators can be fueled by natural gas or propane. If you are interested in learning more about these generators, or if you need assistance in determining which type of generator is right for you, contact us today for more information.
