The Benefits of Having a Generator 

South Carolina is no stranger to severe weather, including hurricanes and thunderstorms, which can lead to prolonged power outages. Having a generator as a backup power source can offer substantial benefits to homeowners and business owners. 

Those benefits include: 

  • Increased home safety: Power outages can compromise your home’s security by disabling alarm systems, surveillance cameras, and outdoor lighting. A generator can keep these crucial safety features active during outages. 
  • Protection against financial loss: A power outage can result in significant financial losses for businesses due to interrupted operations, spoiled products, and lost data. A generator safeguards your business by maintaining power continuity. 
  • Enhanced comfort and convenience: Losing power can be uncomfortable, especially during extreme weather conditions. A generator maintains your comfort by keeping your heating or cooling systems running. 
  • Increased property value: Installing a generator might boost your property’s market value, making it more attractive to potential buyers. 
  • Preservation of perishable goods: Power outages can lead to food spoilage, resulting in wasted groceries and additional expenses. A generator keeps your refrigerator and freezer running, preserving your perishables and saving you money on replacing spoiled items.

The Signs Your Generator Needs Repair

You want your generator to work when you need it the most. Give us a call if you spot warning signs like these: 

  • Difficulty starting up: If your generator struggles to start or requires multiple attempts to get going, it could indicate underlying mechanical or electrical issues. This symptom often points to problems with the battery, fuel system, or spark plugs.
  • Unusual noises: Generators are designed to operate smoothly and quietly, so any unusual noises, such as knocking, banging, or grinding, should not be ignored. These sounds can signal internal damage or worn-out components.
  • Inconsistent power output: Fluctuations, such as surges or drops, indicate your generator is malfunctioning. Inconsistent power delivery can harm sensitive electronics and appliances.
  • Visible physical damage: Any visible signs of damage, such as cracks, frayed wires, or leaking fluids, are clear indicators that your generator needs repair. Physical damage can compromise the generator’s safety and efficiency.
  • Excessive exhaust smoke: While some exhaust smoke is normal, excessive, or colored smoke (black, blue, or white) signals trouble. This symptom can indicate issues with the fuel mixture, oil levels, or internal engine components.
  • Persistent alerts or error codes: Modern generators come equipped with diagnostic systems that display error codes or alerts when something is wrong. Persistent warnings on the control panel should be taken seriously. 
  • Reduced efficiency: If you notice that your generator is consuming more fuel than usual for the same amount of power output, it may be running inefficiently. Worn-out parts or clogged filters can cause reduced efficiency.
