Karen from Colts Neck, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2021. The generator was commissioned in March of 2022: a Generac Guardian rated 19.5 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with two smart management modules. The load calculation asked for 16 kW across 3,653 square feet, and the pair of pumps is what makes the margin worth paying for – a well pump and a sump pump together mean no water coming into the house and no way to move it out once the power stops. Both also have to start against their own resistance rather than easing into the load, which is the moment a generator is asked for the most. Annual maintenance, an extended parts-and-labor warranty and monitoring we manage all sit behind it.
Why Karen chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Colts Neck homeowners
What does the automatic transfer switch do?
It moves the home's electrical supply between the utility and the generator. That is what lets the system work automatically, and it is also what prevents the house being connected to both sources at once. It is the piece that makes the rest safe.
How is the gas pipe size worked out?
From the generator's demand, the available pressure, the pipe length, the allowable pressure drop, the fittings, the pipe material and every other appliance connected to the system. The adopted fuel-gas code carries the sizing requirements and tables, and the model's published fuel consumption goes into the calculation.
Can a generator go in the side yard of a Colts Neck property?
Often yes, provided the side yard satisfies both the manufacturer's clearances and the municipality's zoning requirements. The site review covers the property-line setback, windows and doors, the gas and electric meters, the air conditioner, neighboring structures, flood conditions, service access and any local screening requirement.
