Nick from Leonardo, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2020. The Generac Guardian rated 22 kW on propane and 19.5 kW on natural gas was supplied by Nick and installed by Green Sun in June of 2021, running on natural gas behind a 200-amp automatic transfer switch. The load survey put 4,100 square feet of living space behind it – a large house, and the reason for both the rating and a switch sized to the whole service rather than to a selected group of circuits.
Why Nick chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Leonardo homeowners
What actually gets done at a service visit?
It depends on the model, the age and the interval, but typically engine oil and filter, air filter, spark plug inspection or replacement, battery inspection, a fuel-system leak check, sediment-trap inspection, valve clearance where applicable, and inspection of the enclosure and intakes.
Can a generator be raised on a platform?
Yes. Manufacturer guidance specifically covers installations on platforms and other supporting structures, and directs them to the applicable fire-safety standard, including a noncombustible surface extending beyond the generator for the configuration addressed. Flood and structural requirements have to be satisfied as well.
Do generator requirements in Leonardo differ from the next town over?
The manufacturer's equipment requirements do not change when you cross a municipal boundary into Leonardo, but local zoning can. A township may impose its own side-yard and rear-yard setbacks, mechanical-equipment rules, screening, noise requirements and floodplain provisions. That is why every property gets a municipal zoning review rather than a general answer.
