Uninterrupted Power For Your Safety & Convenience
At AAA Service Plumbing, Heating and Electric, our background-checked technicians know the value of a reliable generator. With power outages becoming increasingly common throughout the state, a standby generator is a reliable shield that will keep your lights, security systems, appliances, HVAC systems, and home medical equipment operational until power is restored.
We can help you select the best generator for your needs and budget, and we guarantee the quality of our work. Contact AAA Service Plumbing, Heating and Electric to schedule generator services in the Denver area.
How Does a Standby Generator Work?
Standby generators are designed to provide fast, reliable electricity when the power grid fails. Within moments of a grid failure, the automatic transfer switch initiates the generator and transfers the electrical load. At this point, the generator supplies electricity to the circuits within your home.
Standby generators can use either natural gas or propane, which means we can install a suitable system whether you’re in the city or in the countryside where natural gas isn’t available.Â
The generator will operate until it runs out of fuel or until power from the grid is restored. As the grid begins supplying power to the home, the automatic transfer switch will transfer the load back to the grid and shut the generator down. This process takes seconds to complete and is safe, efficient, and doesn’t require any manual manipulation on your part.Â
The Benefits of a Whole-Home Generator
There are more than a few benefits to installing a whole-home generator in your Colorado home. Some of the most popular benefits our clients mention include:
- Convenience: Standby generators perform the required load transfer automatically. This means it will happen whether it’s the middle of the night, during the workday when you’re away, or over holidays when you’re on vacation.
- Silent operation: Standby generators are considerably quieter than portable generators. When properly insulated and weatherproofed, you’ll barely hear the unit while operating.
- More power: Standby generators offer power outputs ranging from 8,000 to 20,000 watts. This is far more power than most portable generators and ensures you can supply sufficient electricity to your home’s critical systems.
- Safe and reliable: Standby generators will provide safe, reliable operation in all weather conditions and with minimal maintenance requirements.
