There’s nothing like a power outage to make your heart jump into your throat. Instantly, you’re plunged into darkness (or, at best, shadows) as you try to remember where you put the flashlights and candles. If you’re lucky, the power comes back on soon, and the only issue is remembering to reset the clock on the microwave. But if you’re unlucky, it could be hours or more without power, which means uncomfortable temperatures and spoiled food, just for a start.
All this discomfort is avoidable with whole-home generators. These boxes sit quietly in your home, waiting until they’re needed. When power stops coming from the grid, your generator takes over seamlessly, and you can keep on cooking, cleaning, watching TV, and even checking the microwave to see what time it is.
What Is a Whole-Home Generator?
Damiani’s Comfort Design is known for our routine HVAC maintenance, replacement, and installation. However, we also specialize in installing whole-home generators so that you have a proper backup power supply in the event of a power outage or power surge.
A home generator’s primary purpose is to supply power to your home or commercial space when your electricity is unable to due to power failures in an electricity network. Examples of these power outages include faulty power stations, a short circuit, or bad weather. A study by Climate Central found that 80% of power outages over a 10-year period were caused by severe weather. We know in our neck of the woods that we can be affected by many natural disasters like floods, tornadoes, and wildfires!
When you begin shopping, it would be helpful to understand that most manufacturers produce two types of generators: whole-home and portable. They’re both power sources, but there are important differences to be aware of before selecting a generator for your home or business.
Here are some fundamental differences:
Benefits of Whole-Home Generators
Whole-home generators:
- Offer uninterrupted use of electronics, appliances, and heating and cooling systems
- Provide peace of mind knowing that your family, home, or business is safe during emergencies
- Start quickly, efficiently, and automatically
- Deter theft and reduce insurance rates
- Add significant value to the home
Trust Damiani’s for Whole-Home Generator Installation
Installing your own whole-home generator is not considered a DIY project, unlike changing a spare tire or the oil filter in your car. Whole-home generator installation requires knowledge and experience with plumbing, electrical wiring, and natural gas components.
If you are considering installing a whole-home generator, you should work with a team of seasoned specialists. The professionals at Damiani’s Comfort Design are just a phone call away from helping you select the right generator for your home or business and will provide full-service installation.
