Fabio from Springfield, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2025. We installed a Generac Guardian in August of 2026, rated 22 kW on propane and 19.5 kW on the natural gas it runs on here, sited outdoors beside the meter. The load survey set the size more than the floor area did: 2,800 square feet is the smaller part of it, and the two sump pumps are the reason the number matters, because a sump that stops during a storm is how a basement floods. The code calculation put the minimum at 14 kW, so there is comfortable headroom above it. The whole house switches over through a 150-amp service-entrance transfer switch, and our top service plan supports the machine: annual maintenance, an extended parts-and-labor warranty, and remote monitoring that Green Sun manages directly.
Why Fabio chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Springfield 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.
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Springfield?
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.
What does remote monitoring actually tell you?
Depending on the generator and the connectivity, remote monitoring can report status, maintenance notifications, alarms, exercise information and operating history. Its real value is that a fault announces itself between service visits, instead of being discovered during the outage it was bought for.
