FAQ
Backup Generator FAQS
How long can a backup generator run?
The runtime of your backup generator depends on its fuel source and how much power it needs to supply:
Portable generators typically run for about 8 to 12 hours on a full tank of fuel. However, you will need to refuel them during longer outages.
Standby generators, especially those connected to natural gas, can run as long as necessary, as long as there’s a constant fuel supply. This is ideal for extended outages, providing peace of mind for your home or business.
Our team will help you select the right generator setup and explain how to maintain it to ensure reliable power during an emergency.
What fuel options are available for backup generators?
We offer various fuel options for backup generators, depending on what suits your needs best:
Gasoline: Portable generators usually run on gasoline. It’s widely available but requires refueling and safe storage.
Diesel: Diesel generators are generally more fuel-efficient and offer longer run times, but they can be louder and cost more upfront.
Natural Gas: If you have access to a natural gas line, this is an excellent option for standby generators. It offers a constant fuel supply, allowing your generator to run as long as needed during an outage.
Propane: Propane is a cleaner fuel option and often used for residential generators, but you will need a sizable tank. It can be harder to find than gasoline or natural gas.
We’ll walk you through the different fuel options and help you choose the one that best suits your location and power needs.
What is the difference between portable and standby backup generators?
Here’s a breakdown of the key differences between portable and standby backup generators:
Portable Generators: These are mobile units that you can move around to power specific appliances or systems. They typically run on gasoline, are more affordable, and are a great choice for temporary power during an outage. However, they require manual setup, frequent refueling, and don’t power your entire home or business.
Standby Generators: Installed permanently outside your home or business, these generators are wired directly to your electrical system. They automatically turn on when the power goes out, and typically run on natural gas or propane. Standby generators can power your entire property and are ideal for long-term, hassle-free power during extended outages.
Our team will assess your property, discuss your power needs, and help you choose the best generator—whether portable or standby.
