Storm season is upon us – do you have a generator in place to protect your home this season? If you don’t already have a generator installed outside of your home or business already, you should! A standby generator installation done by Raynor Electric not only helps to keep your appliances running during the event of an outage, it keeps you and your loved ones safe and comfortable. With the stormy season upon us, it’s a good idea to be as prepared as possible. Here’s how a generator installation can help you:
How a Generator Can Help You
Power outages happen, but the problem is what can happen to your home once the power goes out. Homes that experience power outages without a generator are subject to power surges, which can harm your appliances, a flooded basement or damaged plumbing, especially during the winter season, and possibly an entire fridge full of spoiled food. Installing a generator to your home may be expensive, but the damage done by power outages can be even more costly. Here’s how a generator can benefit your home.
- It turns on instantly. Generators like a backup or standby generator work by detecting when the power goes off, generating power immediately. This prevents power surges because there is a constant source of power running in your home. A power surge is a spike in your home’s electrical current and it usually happens when the power is abruptly cut off and turned back on. Although power surges are common, they can destroy sensitive electronics like your computer or entertainment system and even start an electrical fire.
- It protects your home. On top of preventing fire hazards, a generator makes sure important appliances like your home’s security system keep running. Your safety should always be a top priority, but without power your security system can’t protect you and your household from intruders.
- You stay comfortable. A home without power in the dead of winter, or in the hottest month of summer can make anyone miserable. Having a standby system installed and ready ensures you stay comfortable no matter when a power outage occurs.
