Generator Installation from the Helpful Team

Reliable generator installations from local service providers you can trust

Installing a backup generator system is a great way to protect your home in the event of a power outage. Generators can help keep vital home appliances online and prevent serious damage from flooding by keeping your sump pump system active. The team at Ace Hardware Home Services can help you select the correct sized generator for your power needs and handle the complete installation.

Power Outages

Power Outages Cause Serious Disruption

The disruptions caused by power outages can be more serious than lighting a few candles, especially if the power outage lasts for days or weeks. Inconveniences range from replacing an entire refrigerator or freezer filled with food to cleaning out a flooded basement because of a sump pump system that did not have power to operate. Not to mention the inability to work on electronic devices, or the discomfort of not being able to use the home heating or cooling systems.

Choosing Generator Size

Choosing the Right Size Generator is Important

There are many different brands and sizes of backup generators, and knowing which kind to choose is important. The team at Ace Hardware Home Services has the experience to assess and provide options that will work for your home needs. Smaller units are more efficient, but they may only be able to provide enough power for the bare essentials. Larger units have power to spare, but they are more costly and often require more frequent maintenance. Trust our team to help you make the right decision for your home.

Reasons to Install a New Backup Generator

You may be considering new backup generator for a variety of reasons. It can be an important investment in the safety and security of your home.

	Frequent Power Outages
	Power outages can be caused by thunderstorm activity, winter ice storms, and high winds causing downed power lines. Your area may also experience electrical service interruptions due to a strained power grid during high-demand times or electrical brown outs. Power may not be restored for hours, or sometimes even days, and the uncertainty of not knowing when the power will come back on can be frustrating. With a backup generator, power will be restored to your home without interruption.
	Avoiding Loss
	Loss of electricity can cause refrigerators or freezers to turn off, and eventually may cause the foods inside to spoil. In addition, if your home relies on a sump pump system to prevent basement flooding, maintaining the operation of that system is vitally important in a storm flooding situation. A flooded basement can cost thousands to restore the damage and replace what was lost.
	Peace of Mind
	With a backup generator system, you never have to worry about experiencing a power loss again. And with the team at Ace Hardware Home Services maintaining your backup generator, you can rest assured that it will be functioning properly in situations when you need it.
