Eleanor from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since December of 2020. The generator was installed by another company and commissioned in April of 2014, and the servicing came to us six and a half years later. Every interval since has been kept – the six-year service in December of 2020, then the seven-year, the eight-year and the nine-year service in the years that followed. Taking a machine on at six years is the middle case: the early services are behind it and the original warranty is largely spent, so what matters from that point is whether the record stays continuous – and here it has. An annual maintenance plan covers the yearly visit.

Standby generator questions from Farmingdale homeowners
What should we do if it runs for more than a day?
Continuous running for twenty-four hours or more deserves attention. The manufacturer's continuous-use guidance covers a proper shutdown, an oil-level check, a leak inspection and maintenance based on the hours accumulated. Follow the safe shutdown procedure rather than opening or servicing a machine that is running.
Does a 200-amp service need a 200-amp transfer switch?
A transfer switch installed in the service path has to be rated appropriately for the service and the configuration. A 200-amp service commonly uses a 200-amp service-rated switch, but the actual design is confirmed by the electrician rather than assumed from the service size.
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Farmingdale?
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.
