Automatic / Standby Generators

Automatic / Standby Generators

Your life has gotten pretty hectic, and you have a lot on your plate. One thing you shouldn’t have to worry about is keeping the lights on when the weather gets nasty. At least there is an easy solution: an automatic standby generator installed by Keating Electric!


What’s the difference between a Portable Generator and an Automatic Standby Generator?


You’ve seen portable generators on the shelves of the big box hardware stores, and they usually play a prominent role in news stories about big storms. You know, the stories of hordes of people rushing to the stores and cleaning out the generator section right before a hurricane or a blizzard is about to hit.

Automatic Standby Generators - Westchester NY

While portable generators are capable in an emergency, they do require you to drag out the generator, go outside to plug it in, put the gas into it, (OH NO, do I have the gasoline to put into it?), start it up and operate the transfer switch. Not something you want to be doing until after the storm has passed.


Automatic standby generators eliminate all the hassles. They sense when the power goes out and automatically start up, transfer the inflow of electricity from the utility to the generator, and keep your whole house running. It all happens quickly, without you having to lift a finger!


The Many Benefits of an Automatic Standby Generator


When you have your automatic standby generator installed by Keating Electric, you get your own personal self-sufficient power plant. Not only will it turn itself on when the power goes out, it even senses when the power is restored and automatically transfers your home back to utility power before shutting itself down!


Automatic standby generators get connected to a propane tank or your natural gas connection so you never need to worry about running out of fuel, and they can be sized to run even the largest home. The experts at Keating Electric can help you determine the proper sizing to make sure you get the perfect fit for your needs.


Another handy feature of automatic standby generators is their monthly self-testing capabilities. Once a month, at a time and day that you can specify, your automatic standby generator will turn itself on, run for a few minutes, and perform a series of self-diagnostics to make sure everything is in proper working order. Once it has gone through this process, it will alert you to its findings via your smartphone, so you know exactly how it is functioning. This helps prevent any problems or malfunctions when you least expect!


One of the truly amazing benefits of automatic standby backup generators is their ability to power your entire home. Just because the power is out doesn’t mean you have to shut down your home theater or home office; with your standby backup generator you can keep going with your life with the security of knowing your electricity needs are being taken care of through your smart investment.

An automatic / standby generator is the solution to guarantee your life will keep going on even when the power goes out.

Standby Generator - Automatic Operation

 

Home backup generators automatically sense power outages and start up automatically within seconds – whether you're at home or not. The generator also senses when electrical power is restored and shuts itself down automatically, as well.

 

When at rest, the generator will automatically test itself so you can be sure that it's ready to perform whenever the need arises.

 

Standby Generator - Backup Power

 

Home backup power generators come in different sizes to fit your needs. Some people want a backup generator that will power their entire house; heating and cooling, appliances, lights, everything. Others may only want a backup generator to power the essentials; refrigerator / freezer, sump pump, security system, and a few lights.
