With the incoming snow we want to send out some important things to keep in mind.
- make sure your generator can breathe! Clear snow away from intake and exhaust openings.
- if you're in an extended outage, the manufacturer says that the oil needs to be checked every 8-24 hours depending on the make/ model. This means shutting the engine down, checking the dipstick, topping off the oil if needed, then placing the unit back in auto. Once in auto the unit will start right away, if still in an outage.
- if you are running a portable generator, make sure it is away from all vents, windows, and doors on the outside of the house. Follow the manufacturer recommendation for hookup, setbacks, etc.
We will be available when needed. Life safety is always our highest priority, then our platinum customers, and first come first served thereafter. Please reach out and we will get you taken care of as we can! Stay safe and warm!
