Generator Installation Near Hamilton, Ontario
Different Types of Generators Available
If you are looking to have a generator installed, our team can help you to find the right generator for your needs. There are three primary types of generators available.
Standby Generator
Whole Home Generator
Commercial Generator
A standby generator is a generator that is smaller than both a whole home generator or a commercial generator. This type of generator is designed to power a specific object or item. For example, a standby generator can supply power to a fridge or freezer, preventing food from spoiling, or to a specific piece of machinery, if the power goes out.
A whole home generator is designed to supply your home with enough power to power your appliances, lights, heating and cooling devices and outlets if the power goes out. The size of generator that you need will vary based on the size of your home and your electricity consumption.
A commercial generator is larger in size than a whole home generator. Commercial generators are designed to supply enough power for your commercial building, ensuring there are no disruptions to your business or commercial space when your regular power supply is interrupted.
Can You Complete Generator Installation Yourself?
While you can purchase transfer switch kits that are designed to help you install a generator yourself, it is recommended that you always hire an electrician for transfer switch installation. This helps to ensure your generator is properly installed and will kick on when the power goes out. This also helps to prevent damage to the generator or your electrical system that can occur if you improperly install a transfer switch and generator.
