The Importance of Generator Maintenance

 Regular maintenance is essential to keep a standby generator running safely and efficiently, just like routine oil changes and tune-ups help extend the life of a car. Since a standby generator uses engine it requires scheduled service to maintain performance and reduce the risk of costly repairs.

Some of the task include

  • Changing the oil
  • Replacing the air filter
  • replacing spark plugs
  • inspection other system components 
Those steps help support long-term reliability, safe operation and compliance with manufacturer warranty.

Even when there is no power outage, the generator will preform a scheduled weekly exercise cycle to keep the engine in good operating condition. A preventive maintenance agreement can help ensure your generator receives proper service throughout the year. Our Factory- trained technicians perform maintenance visits 2 times a year annually.  Give us a call to learn more about our generator maintenance contract.
