Standby Generator Service

William from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2014. The generator was commissioned that November: 11 kW in a steel enclosure on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with two priority management modules. The load calculation asked for 11 kW across the 1,900 square foot house, with a double electric oven doing most of the work in that figure, so the machine matches the requirement exactly rather than exceeding it. Twelve years on it is still under an annual maintenance plan. Sizing to the calculation rather than above it is the cheaper […]

John from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2020. The generator was commissioned that December: 16 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a 100-amp smart management module, sized against a 13 kW calculation for the 2,164 square foot house. The management module here is rated at 100 amps rather than the usual 50, which is the arrangement used when the load being held back is a large one – typically central air conditioning, the single biggest thing a house asks a generator to start. Annual maintenance, an extended parts-and-labor

Thomas from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2020. The generator was commissioned in March of 2021: 16 kW on natural gas, on a 150-amp service-entrance switch, sized against a 14 kW calculation for the 2,375 square foot house. A sump pump, two refrigerators, a separate freezer, a washer, a gas dryer and a dishwasher make up the load. Seven months passed between the contract and the commissioning, which was normal for a generator booked in the second half of 2020 – demand ran well ahead of what manufacturers could ship, and the

Marty from Scotch Plains, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2013, which puts this among the oldest generator relationships on the site. The machine was commissioned that September: 20 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with two priority management modules. The load survey lists two electric ovens, two sump pumps, two refrigerators, a washer and a gas dryer across 3,800 square feet – the calculation came to 11 kW, so the generator was specified at nearly twice the requirement. Two sump pumps is the detail that justifies the margin: both may

Andrea from Eatontown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2021. The generator was commissioned a year later, in June of 2022: a Generac Guardian rated 17 kW on natural gas, on a 100-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module. A 100-amp service is the constraint that shapes a job like this – the house has less headroom to work with than a modern 200-amp panel, so the management module is what makes whole-house coverage possible at all rather than an optional refinement. The calculation asked for 13 kW across 2,510 square feet, with

Ronald and Robin from Fair Haven, NJ have been Green Sun Energy Services clients since May of 2024. The generator was commissioned that July, and it is an essential-circuits installation rather than whole-house: ten circuits carried through from the existing manual transfer switch, plus the garage breaker, into an indoor transfer switch. That is the honest answer for a 1,616 square foot house where the priority is the sump pump, the refrigerator, the furnace controls and enough light to live by, rather than running everything at once. Naming the circuits in advance is the whole point of the approach –

Wendy from Allentown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2020. The generator was commissioned that September, a month after the paperwork: a Generac Guardian rated 19.5 kW on natural gas, outdoors beside the meter, with a 200-amp service-entrance switch and a smart management module. The load calculation asked for 17 kW across 3,900 square feet, carrying an electric oven and an electric dryer alongside two refrigerators, a freezer, a washer and a dishwasher. An all-electric kitchen and laundry is what makes the difference here – each of those appliances draws several times what its

Innovative Advocate, Inc in Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2018. The generator was commissioned in the middle of June, a 20 kW Generac in an aluminium enclosure on its own pad behind a 200-amp service-rated switch with a power management module. It covers 4,900 square feet with two refrigerators, a freezer, a dishwasher, the laundry and a sump pump, which makes it one of the larger properties on our books. A PowerBase plan has kept it serviced since. Middletown is in Monmouth County.
