Do you need a backup generator?​

Generac backup generator

It is not uncommon for us to lose power here in the south during storm season. In fact, we’ve come to expect it at least a few times a year from June to November. Unfortunately, the weather events over the last few weeks have reminded us that power outages and blackouts can occur and last for days even in the winter. A backup generator can be a lifesaver and it is an investment. So, do you really need a backup generator?

 

A backup generator is crucial in areas that experience extreme weather conditions like hurricanes which lead to frequent power outages. With a backup generator, you’re able to power some or all of your property so you’re able to live safer and minimize financial losses when the power stays out for an extended period of time.

What is a backup generator?

As soon as the power goes out, your generator springs into action. The power is restored within seconds whether you’re home or not. The generator runs on natural gas or liquid propane, and sits outside just like your AC unit. It safely delivers power directly to your home’s electrical system, backing up your entire home or just the most essential items. 

Who needs a backup generator?

A backup generator is beneficial for both home and business owners. As a homeowner, buying a generator could spare financial losses, like food spoilage, when power outages strike. With so many of us working from home, a backup generator also ensures your work won’t suffer due to no power. As a business owner, a backup generator allows you to keep operating without losing customers or inventory. 

Does a backup generator increase property value?

Installing a backup generator could make it easier to sell your property – which saves money right there. While you may not get 100% of your investment back in resale value, having a generator could save you money by preventing losses. And in some cases, having one could also lower your homeowner’s insurance.

Do I need a backup generator?

A backup generator offers peace of mind, and in some cases can even be a lifesaver. It prevents the hassle of losing power and potentially having it stay out for days on end. In Louisiana, where we are no stranger to hurricanes and power outages, a backup generator is a smart investment.
