Orlando Electrical Generators

Electric Generators in Orlando

A standby electrical generator can provide power and peace of mind when you need them the most-when you're subject to potentially extended power outages. But did you know that when your power goes out, you and your family's comfort aren't the only things on the line? Your home's health and safety become at risk as well.

Why consider a standby generator?

Even if the idea of spending a day (or even a weekend) "camping" in your living room catching up on your reading by candlelight, playing board games with the family, and taking advantage of all the "hurricane food" you've been diligently stocking up on, sound like a fun change of pace for you, there are other more serious reasons to consider a generac generator.

When your power goes out, you're not just left in the dark with a fridge full of food to eat before it goes bad, your home and potentially even your health becomes at risk. Sump pumps stop working, which can lead to costly damage and humidity (a constant in Florida) and lack of air circulation and filtration leave your home susceptible to mold and mildew.

Mold and mildew are not only destructive but are costly to clean up and can cause permanent damage to your home. Mold damage is also not generally covered by most insurance. In addition, mold and mildew are harmful to your health, breathing in the spores can cause serious respiratory issues or even infection. Other potential effects of mold exposure are nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation. Mold is already everywhere and Florida's constant humidity is the perfect climate for mold to proliferate in. In fact, it only takes 24-48 hours for mold to germinate or grow.  That's just a day or two without the power to put your home and health in jeopardy. Your AC not only circulates air to prevent mold but filters it as well, to prevent the spread of spores.

Other issues you could experience in the event of extended power outages include:
  • your security system going down
  • injuries from insufficient lighting
  • fire risk from candle usage
  • food spoilage.

How standby electrical generators work

A standby electric generator monitors your home or business's incoming utility-line voltage to enable automatic startup and shutdown. When power is interrupted, your generator immediately detects the problem and begins supplying electricity to your preselected circuits. In fact, it restores power within as little as 10 seconds—no starter ropes, no extension cords, no hassles. Installed permanently outside your home, a standby generator runs on liquid propane (LP) or natural gas supply.
