A standby generator is a permanently installed system that connects directly to your electrical panel.
It detects outages instantly and powers your essential systems, keeping everything running until grid power returns.

We’ll help you choose the right system size and integrate automatic transfer switches (ATS) to keep your business running safely and efficiently.
While both standby and portable generators provide backup power, the difference in performance and safety is significant. A standby generator automatically turns on the moment power goes out, running on natural gas or propane for continuous operation. It’s permanently installed outside your home or business and connected directly to your electrical panel, offering seamless, hands-free protection.
A portable generator, on the other hand, requires manual setup and refueling with gasoline. It can only run for short periods before needing to be refilled, and it must be operated outdoors to avoid carbon monoxide risks. Portable units are best for temporary use, while standby generators are designed for long-term reliability and automatic power restoration.
In short, standby generators provide safety, convenience, and uninterrupted performance—making them a smart investment for homeowners and businesses alike.
