How Does a Power Generator Work?

Power generators utilize gas, propane, or natural gas energy to power home appliances and home electrical systems when the power goes out. A home generator will kick on automatically when it senses a power outage and will continue to run until the power is restored or you turn it off manually. Power generators are an excellent solution to keeping the power on in your home even during storms, natural disasters, and other emergencies when the power goes out.

Home Generators Vs Battery

When it comes to choosing between a power generator and batteries, there are a few things to consider. First and foremost, power generators can provide power longer than a battery, so in the case of an emergency, a power generator will provide you with more security. You should also consider the type of fuel you prefer to use. Power generators typically rely on gas, natural gas, or propane, while batteries are often charged with electricity or solar power. Both are great alternatives and our technicians can help you determine the best fit for your individual needs.
