Christopher from Bridgewater, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2024. The generator was commissioned that May: a Generac Guardian rated 21 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with two smart management modules and surge protection. The load calculation asked for 16 kW across 3,000 square feet, carrying a well pump, a sump pump, a heat pump, two refrigerators, a washer, a gas dryer and a dishwasher. A well and a sump on the same property is the combination that makes backup power less about comfort than about the house continuing to function – one supplies the water, the other keeps it out of the basement, and both stop the moment the power does. The generator is supported by annual maintenance and a seven-year extended parts-and-labor warranty.
Why Christopher chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Bridgewater homeowners
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Bridgewater home supply a generator?
Often yes, but the gas system has to be evaluated first. The review covers the generator's BTU demand, meter capacity, available pressure, regulator capacity, pipe diameter and length, and every other gas appliance in the house -- furnace, boiler, water heater, range and fireplace among them.
Will a 24 kW generator run an entire Bridgewater house?
For many homes, yes, but that does not mean every load can run at the same moment. Houses with two central air conditioners, electric heat, EV charging, pool equipment or electric cooking may need load management or a larger machine. The answer comes from a load calculation rather than from the phrase whole house.
How much room does a technician need around the machine?
Enough to satisfy the model-specific service clearances and to open the enclosure and remove service panels safely. Routine work reaches the engine, air filter, oil filter, spark plugs, battery, controller, fuel system and wiring compartments, so the space has to be real rather than nominal.
