Vincent from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since December of 2012. He signed a few days before Christmas and the generator was commissioned in the middle of April, a 14 kW Generac behind a service-rated automatic transfer switch. It covers 1,800 square feet with two refrigerators, an electric oven, a dishwasher and an electric dryer, and that dryer is why the sizing is where it is: an electric one draws several times what a gas dryer does. Middletown is in Monmouth County.
Why Vincent chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
Will a 14 kW generator run an entire Middletown house?
For many homes, yes, but that does not mean every load can run at the same moment. Houses with two central air conditioners, electric heat, EV charging, pool equipment or electric cooking may need load management or a larger machine. The answer comes from a load calculation rather than from the phrase whole house.
Which fuel-gas code applies?
New Jersey currently adopts the 2024 International Fuel Gas Code as its Fuel Gas Subcode, which is what governs the piping, testing and shutoff arrangements on a natural-gas generator installation.
Will a larger gas meter be needed?
Possibly. A generator can significantly increase a home's maximum gas demand. If the existing meter or service cannot hold the required pressure while supplying the generator and the other appliances together, the gas utility may require an upgrade.
