Generator Installation Ottawa
What is a home standby generator? What are the benefits of having it in your home in Ottawa?
A standby home generator offers numerous benefits to homeowners in Ottawa. Some areas of Ottawa, Orleans, Kanata, Blackburn Hamlet, and Rockland experience frequent power outages. With a home generator from a trusted brand like Generac, your home will have a reliable backup power source, ensuring an uninterrupted electricity supply during extreme weather and blackouts.
Can I connect a portable generator to my home?
There are multiple options for connecting a portable generator to your home. One of the simplest and most flexible options is called a manual transfer switch connected to a portable generator. A portable generator could be a residential generator or a commercial generator.
A generator is permanently installed outside your house. In case of a power outage, it comes on. Some generators are connected to your home’s natural gas or liquid propane system. Generators can protect your appliances from sudden surges of electricity.
What is an automatic start feature?
The automatic start feature provides a seamless flow of electricity if the power suddenly shuts off. Transfer switches are connected between the generator, and your home’s electrical panel to your outlets (and devices) are protected from frying themselves.
What is the cost of a whole house generator?
It costs $4000 plus taxes and shipping. For a simple installation, the typical homeowner in Ottawa will pay about $2500 for installation. The installation of each of the Generac generators can cost anywhere from $3,000 to $20,000.
Why do you need a backup generator in a residential building?
Installing a backup power supply protects the electronics and appliances inside your home from surges in electricity. Generators can operate on propane or natural gas. This makes them a great choice for residential buildings in rural or urban areas. Backup generators can protect essential medical equipment, frozen foods and keep your home connected to the internet in case of a power outage.
