Cezahir from Howell, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2023. The generator was installed by another company and commissioned in December of 2020, and we were called in for its three-year service, completed that June. The three-year interval is the one where a standby generator stops being new: the break-in oil is long gone, the battery is approaching the age where it starts letting people down, and the plugs and filters have a few hundred running hours on them. Catching a machine at that point, even once, is worth more than catching it at ten.
Why Cezahir chose Green Sun Energy Services
We keep your generator ready before the power goes out.

Standby generator questions from Howell homeowners
How often should a standby generator be serviced?
Maintenance follows the schedule for the exact model and its operating hours. For current air-cooled units that means an annual inspection plus scheduled work at hour-and-year intervals. Extended running during a long outage can bring the next service forward.
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Howell?
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.
How is a standby generator grounded?
The grounding and bonding arrangement depends on the transfer-switch configuration, and in particular on whether the neutral is switched and the generator therefore treated as a separately derived system. It is designed by a qualified electrical contractor rather than assumed from another installation.
