Annual Maintenance

One of the major benefits of having an electric generator installed at your property is that you get total peace of mind that it’ll kick in and help you during emergencies – without any prompting on your part. Of course, if it has some kind of mechanical or fuel issue, that might not be the case – and you need to ensure that you run regular maintenance to make sure it is in a functional and safe condition. At Western CT Generators, we’re happy to provide maintenance expertise for electric power generation installations at the homes and businesses across Danbury, Connecticut.

Homes, Businesses & More
You might be surprised at how many of the homes and businesses situated in our state have on-site generators at the ready in case of an emergency, and all of these sites need to invest in annual maintenance to ensure they’re in working condition. But, of course, there are other situations where people have generators that go for a long time without use and could always use a check-up. Many people have a portable electric generator for hosting events outside, among other activities, and these are often left without being seen for many months or even years – so there’s a good chance you wouldn’t be aware of a problem without a maintenance check.
 
Frequency of Use
While we believe an annual maintenance check is the bare minimum for any business or home generator installation, there are some circumstances where it makes sense to have it checked more often. Do you need to use your generator on a regular basis? Then there’s a good chance it’s likely to suffer from mechanical issues more quickly than an underused electric generator. A maintenance run-through every 6 months is likely to provide more than enough cover to ensure that it’s working when you need it to.
 
Following Procedures
Have you ever wondered, how does an electric generator work? We wouldn’t be surprised if you have – these are complex machines made from a wide array of components, and that also means there’s a lot to go through with any maintenance check. We have a uniform way of running through all the different parts of your generator that ensures we’re not going to miss any issue that’s lurking in there. Our professionals are all meticulousness with an unwavering attention to detail, so we have total faith that they’ll adhere to our procedures without exception.
 
Efficiency Matters
The primary purpose of maintenance is to ensure that your generator is in a working condition, but we also want to make sure that it’s functioning in an efficient manner. You’re going to be expecting the generator to run for a certain amount of time based on its performance capabilities and fuel availability, but if it’s not working at full capacity, that is going to mess with your calculations. We’ll make sure it’s running at optimal efficiency, giving you a clear picture of its usability.
