Standby Generator Service

Stephen from Freehold, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2020. The generator was commissioned in August of 2021: a Generac Guardian rated 19.5 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with four smart management modules. The load calculation asked for 18 kW across the 2,900 square foot house, and two heat pumps are the reason four modules were fitted – a heat pump draws several times its running load in the instant the compressor starts, and two of them starting together is the moment that decides whether a generator copes. Two sump

Tom from Toms River, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2021. The generator was commissioned that September: a Generac Guardian rated 19.5 kW on natural gas, on a 150-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module and whole-panel surge protection. The load calculation asked for 13 kW across the 1,700 square foot house, so the machine carries a wide margin over the requirement. Surge protection is the part worth understanding on the Ocean County coast: power returning after a storm is rarely clean, and the moment the grid comes back is when connected equipment

Michael from Princeton, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2024. The generator was commissioned in September: 26 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with three smart management modules and surge protection. This is the largest machine on the site, and the load calculation supports it – 22 kW across 5,500 square feet, with three sump pumps, an electric dryer and an electric oven on the list. Three pumps is not redundancy but capacity: a basement that needs three has water arriving faster than one or two can move it, and all

Chris from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2019. The generator was commissioned that October: 20 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module. The load survey is one of the heaviest we have written up – two well pumps, a sump pump, two double electric ovens, two refrigerators, a washer and a gas dryer across 4,500 square feet, adding up to a 28 kW calculation. That is well above the machine that was fitted, which is exactly what load management exists for: rather than buying a

Kim from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since December of 2024. The generator was commissioned in February of 2025: 18 kW on natural gas, on a 150-amp service-entrance switch with surge protection, sized against a 15 kW calculation for the 2,400 square foot house. An electric oven is on the load list, which is usually what lifts a house of this size past what its floor area alone would suggest – the elements draw hard and they draw at the times when everything else in the kitchen is running too. Annual maintenance, an extended parts-and-labor

Adam from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2020. The generator was commissioned in May of 2021: 16 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module. The load calculation asked for 15 kW across 3,150 square feet, with two dishwashers among the appliances – a detail that usually means two kitchens or a kitchen built for entertaining, and either way a house whose demand does not follow from its floor area alone. Eight months separated the contract from the commissioning, the equipment lead times of late 2020

Thomas from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2020. The generator was commissioned in April of 2021: 20 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module, sized against a 15 kW calculation for the 2,342 square foot house. Two conditions were agreed before the contract was signed: three large bushes had to come out of the proposed location, and an abandoned dryer vent had to be sealed off. The vent is the one that matters technically – a disused opening in the wall near a generator is

Gavin from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2024. The generator was commissioned that August: a 24 kW machine on natural gas, on a 150-amp service-entrance switch with two smart management modules and surge protection. The load calculation asked for 14 kW across the 2,600 square foot house, so the machine carries a wide margin – and the pair of pumps is the reason that margin is 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

Ian from Spring Lake Heights, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since March of 2020. The generator was commissioned that June: 16 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module. The load calculation asked for 15 kW across the 1,900 square foot house, and a double electric oven is most of the reason the figure is that high for the floor area – two elements drawing together approach the demand of the rest of the house combined. Two refrigerators, a washer, a gas dryer and a dishwasher complete the load. An
