Straight answers
What's the difference between a standby and a portable generator setup?
A standby system is permanently installed, runs on natural gas or propane, and starts itself within seconds of an outage. A portable generator is fuel-powered, has to be set up and started manually, and connects through a much less expensive interlock kit or manual switch.
Do you install generators for rental and second-home properties?
Yes, and it's a common request on the Grand Strand. An automatic transfer switch is usually the right call here specifically because the owner is often not on the property when the outage happens, which a portable unit can't help with.
Can you add an automatic transfer switch to a generator I already own?
In many cases yes, if the existing generator is compatible with automatic switching and the panel has room for the hardware. That gets confirmed during the site visit before a price is quoted.
Do you service generators you didn't install?
Generator repair and maintenance are offered regardless of who did the original install, as long as the unit is a standard residential or light-commercial standby or portable system.
