Never Live Without Power Again
n HOMEOWNER TIP n
Never Live Without Power Again!
Provided by GoGEN
Living in Southwest Louisiana we are no strangers to severe weather. Any home can lose power, especially when it comes to storms. Any kind of storm can knock out your utility power. Power outages can last from several hours to several weeks. Being prepared is the best way to keep your home and your family safe.
Who wants to live without power? Do you remember what it was like without power for many weeks after Hurricane Laura? Whole home generators hook up to your main utilities incoming service. Using portable generators requires refueling. With a whole home generator you can skip the long lines at the gas stations. Having a whole home generator gives you peace of mind even before power outages. A transfer switch recognizes when your powersource is interrupted and automatically turns on power to your home, and recognizes when power has been reestablished by your utility company, and will automatically turn off. Your whole home can be powered by a single generator.
If you or a loved one is reliant on medical devices such as a heart monitor, electric chair, or oxygen tank a generator could be the lifesaving tool needed during a power outage. Your refrigerators and freezers will continue to operate and eliminate costly spoilage.
A whole home generator can be installed with one simple call. There is no need to call general contractors, plumbers, or electricians to install your new whole home generator. One supplier can do it all. CAUTION: Improper installation may cause serious damage to your home including fires, which is why you must trust professionals.
Along with installation another vital service that can be provided by some suppliers is 24-hour monitoring and maintenance. Your generator levels and overall maintenance can be checked from multiple locations. Your provider will know if there is a problem before you do, reducing your wait time for repairs.
