Maryrose from Holmdel, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2024. The generator was installed by another company and commissioned in May of 2020, and the servicing came to us four years later. Three intervals have been kept since – the four-year service in August of 2024, the five-year service in July of 2025 and the six-year service this August. Four years is the point at which a standby generator stops being new: the break-in oil is long gone, the battery is entering the range where it starts letting people down, and the plugs and filters have real hours on them. An annual maintenance plan now covers the yearly visit, with the manufacturer’s standard warranty behind the machine.
Why Maryrose chose Green Sun Energy Services
We keep your generator ready before the power goes out.

Standby generator questions from Holmdel homeowners
Can the exercise time be changed?
Yes, though the procedure depends on the controller and the model, and older and newer control platforms use different setup interfaces. Remote monitoring may also offer it, depending on the generator.
How close to the house can a generator sit in Holmdel?
For the air-cooled models covered by the manufacturer's listed installation guidance, the rear of the generator can be as close as eighteen inches to a qualifying structure when every condition of that listing is met. That eighteen inches is a tested installation dimension, not a zoning setback, and a municipality can require more.
What is a service-entrance-rated transfer switch?
One that is listed for use as service equipment when installed in the appropriate configuration. These are commonly used for whole-house systems, where the transfer switch becomes part of the home's service arrangement rather than sitting downstream of it.
