Jeffrey from Leonardo, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2018. His 20 kW Generac from the 5800 series was installed by another company in October of 2012 and he switched the servicing to us six years later, on a Silver plan. A machine that age needs its annual visit more than a new one does, not less. Leonardo is on the Bayshore in Monmouth County.

Standby generator questions from Leonardo homeowners
What is a sediment trap for?
It helps stop foreign material in the gas line from reaching the generator's fuel controls. Where the fuel-gas code and the system configuration call for one, it is fitted, and the maintenance schedule includes inspecting or cleaning it.
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.
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.
