Susan from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2016. She signed at the end of August and the generator was commissioned on the third of November, a 16 kW Generac in a steel enclosure on its own pad behind a 200-amp service-rated switch with a power management module. It covers 2,500 square feet with a refrigerator, a dishwasher and the laundry. Three houses on West Bonicelli Court bought generators within five weeks that summer. Farmingdale is in Monmouth County.
Why Susan chose Green Sun Energy Services

Standby generator questions from Farmingdale homeowners
Do underground utilities have to be marked before the trench is dug?
Yes. Underground facilities must be addressed through the New Jersey One Call process before the excavation begins, which is what protects buried gas, electric, telecommunications and water lines from being struck.
How close to the house can a generator sit in Farmingdale?
For the air-cooled models covered by the manufacturer's listed installation guidance, the rear of the generator can be as close as eighteen inches to a qualifying structure when every condition of that listing is met. That eighteen inches is a tested installation dimension, not a zoning setback, and a municipality can require more.
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.
