Why You Should Consider a Home Generator
Buying a home generator is a lot like having insurance: no one wants to pay for it, but when you need it, boy are you glad you have it! Getting a generator installed could prove to be a saving grace when you’re in a jam. Here are some of the most popular reasons why homeowners love their house generators.
Increased Safety During Emergencies
When an emergency hits, a generator is an excellent source of security for your home and family. During power outages, burglars and vandals will often target homes without power. An emergency generator guarantees that you will be able to keep your lights shining. Scare off criminals and keep your family safe with a whole-house generator.
Emergency Power
If a storm knocks out your block’s power, there is no telling how long it will take for your electricity provider to turn the power back on. Having an emergency power supply ensures that you can protect the food in your fridge from spoiling. You can stay safe in your home without venturing out into dangerous weather for more food and supplies.
Sustainability Benefits
Many people are unaware that generators are sustainable energy sources when compared to electricity. Although you would not want to run your home on a generator full time, generators are quite environmentally friendly. Home generators have been proven to release lower carbon monoxide emissions than electricity.
Consult your electrical contractor about the additional sustainability benefits of a home generator.
Electricity During Blackouts
When the whole block loses power, wouldn’t it be nice to be the only house on the block that still has the lights on? Darkness from blackouts can lead to many dangerous situations in the home, such as falling in the dark, mistaking medications, and fire hazards from candles. Having an electrical company install a generator in your home will ensure that these hazards never befall you or your family.
