Katia from Colts Neck, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2020. A Generac Guardian rated 22 kW on propane and 19.5 kW on natural gas went in the following July, running on natural gas behind a 200-amp automatic transfer switch, with 3,600 square feet of living space behind it on the load survey. Nine months between booking and installation is ordinary for a machine this size: the gas work and the township inspection each set their own pace, and the generator waits on both.
Why Katia chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Colts Neck homeowners
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Colts Neck 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.
How can a whole house be carried on a smaller electrical service?
Through load management. One or more large loads are controlled so they do not start at the same moment, or shut down briefly if generator demand climbs too high. That is what allows whole-house coverage where the raw sum of every connected load would otherwise exceed the machine.
Can a standby generator be used instead of utility power?
Residential standby generators are intended for backup during outages rather than as a permanent substitute for normal utility service. Running through an extended outage is expected, but maintenance requirements become considerably more important during prolonged continuous use.
