Frequently Asked Questions

Which generators are the quietest for home backups?

The quietest generators for home backup are inverter generators, known for their quieter operation compared to conventional models. Brands like Generac, Honda, and Yamaha offer highly rated quiet home backup generators. These models are ideal for residential use as they typically produce sound levels between 50 to 60 decibels (about as loud as a normal conversation).

Why does my generator keep shutting off after 20 minutes? What are some ways to fix it?

A generator shutting off after 20 minutes could indicate various issues, such as:

  • Overheating: Ensure proper ventilation and check for blocked vents.
  • Low oil levels: Check the oil level and refill as necessary.
  • Fuel problems: Ensure the fuel is clean and that the tank is not empty or contaminated.
  • Air filter issues: Clean or replace the air filter if it’s dirty. Addressing these issues will often restore normal function, but if the problem persists, a professional technician should inspect the generator.

What are some common dimmer switch problems?

Some common issues with dimmer switches include:

  • Flickering lights: This could be due to a loose connection or a mismatch between the dimmer switch and the type of bulbs used.
  • Overheating: If the dimmer feels unusually warm, it may be overloaded or incompatible with certain lighting fixtures.
  • Buzzing sound: This could result from low-quality dimmers or bulbs that aren’t dimmable. If you’re experiencing any of these issues, we can help troubleshoot and replace the dimmer switch if needed.

What are the benefits, processes, and regulations of installing under-the-driveway residential propane tanks?

Installing an under-the-driveway propane tank offers benefits like space-saving, enhanced property aesthetics, and efficient fuel storage. The process includes:

  • Permits and inspections: Local regulations typically require permits and inspections to ensure safety compliance.
  • Excavation and tank placement: A hole is dug beneath the driveway, followed by the installation of a corrosion-resistant underground propane tank.
  • Connection to appliances: The tank is then connected to your home’s generator or other propane-powered appliances.

We follow all local safety and environmental regulations during the installation to ensure a safe and compliant setup.

What kind and size of propane tank do you need for a Generac generator?

The size of the propane tank for a Generac generator depends on the generator’s power capacity and the duration you want it to run. For most residential backup systems:

  • A 250-gallon tank is sufficient for smaller generators.
  • A 500-gallon tank is recommended for larger generators (around 22kW) to provide longer runtime during outages.

We can assess your specific needs to recommend the right tank size.

What are all the types of generators out there?

There are several types of generators:

  • Portable generators: These are small, mobile units suitable for short-term or emergency use.
  • Inverter generators: Known for their quiet operation and efficient energy output, ideal for sensitive electronics.
  • Standby generators: Permanently installed, these are powered by natural gas or propane and kick in automatically during power outages.
  • Solar generators: These use solar panels to generate electricity, offering an eco-friendly backup solution. We install and maintain various generator types based on your requirements.
