How Do Home Generators Work?

A whole-home generator is designed to be connected to the power supply in your home. When a power outage occurs, a transfer switch is automatically flipped, and your home begins taking power from the generator instead of the original power source.

Most whole-home generators are equipped to power your home for up to 3 weeks if necessary. Home generators (also known as standby generators) rely on natural gas, propane, or diesel to produce power. Whole-home solar generators are another option that relies on solar energy in tandem with solar batteries and solar panels.

Benefits of Whole-Home Generators

Types of Residential Generators

Generator Service Portland Oregon

Portable

Portable generators have their uses, but they don’t provide nearly as much wattage as whole-home generators. In most cases, portable generators can be used for a few hours at a time to power small appliances.

Standby

Standby generators, otherwise known as whole-home generators, can provide power to most or all of your home. There are many sizes of standby generators available, from
14kW whole-home generators that power only essential appliances to 24kW generators that power your entire home.

Choosing the right generator will depend on the size of your home as well as the kinds of appliances you have inside. Many people assume that a large generator is always the best option, but choosing a generator that’s too big for your home can actually be less efficient.

Standby generators will sit on their own, outside of your home just like a propane tank or gas meter would.

If you’re unsure what kind of generator you need, our team at Roth would be happy to assist you. We can perform an inspection of your home to determine how many kilowatts will be necessary to keep your home safe and comfortable in case of an emergency.

Professional Portland Generator Service

Installation

Generators are extremely powerful electrical appliances that can cause serious injury or death if handled improperly. That’s why we always recommend you turn to a professional electrician for generator installation.

Installing a whole-home generator is a unique process that requires customized plans that are based on the needs of your home. Because of this, it’s normal for the entire process, from requesting a quote to the completion of the project, to take a few weeks.

Once we’ve ordered the necessary materials for the project, the actual installation will take about a day. In the days following the installation, the fuel line will be connected to the generator. Then, the generator will be inspected to ensure everything is working properly.
