Bridget from Belford, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2021. The generator was commissioned in February of 2022: 14 kW on natural gas, on a 100-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module, sized against a 13 kW calculation for the 1,800 square foot house. Two separate freezers alongside a refrigerator make up most of that figure – three pieces of cold storage in a modest house, and the reason a long outage costs more here than the lights being off. On a 100-amp service the management module is what makes whole-house coverage possible at all rather than an optional refinement. Annual maintenance, a ten-year extended parts-and-labor warranty and monitoring we manage all sit behind it.
Why Bridget chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Belford homeowners
Can a generator sit behind a solid privacy fence?
Potentially, if the fence stays outside every airflow, exhaust and servicing clearance and does not create a partially enclosed space where heat or exhaust can accumulate. Municipal fence and screening rules may apply as well.
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Belford?
Yes. Gas piping subject to the adopted fuel-gas code must be inspected and tested before it is accepted. New Jersey adopts the 2024 International Fuel Gas Code, which governs the inspection, the test pressure and how long the test has to hold.
Can a generator be installed in a flood zone in Belford?
Yes, but the generator and its electrical equipment may need to be elevated or otherwise protected. The installation is evaluated against the property's FEMA flood zone, its Base Flood Elevation and Design Flood Elevation, the municipal flood ordinance, any applicable freeboard, and NJDEP requirements where they apply. It is a property-by-property assessment rather than a rule of thumb.
