Paul from Middletown, 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 the annual visit more than a new one does, not less. Middletown is in Monmouth County.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
Does a propane generator need permits in Middletown?
A permanently installed propane generator normally requires construction permits, and the propane installation has to satisfy the applicable fuel-gas and LP-gas requirements. Tank placement, capacity, piping, regulators, setbacks and fire-safety provisions all come under review.
Does a generator in Middletown have to sit twelve inches above the flood elevation?
That figure should not be treated as a universal rule without looking at the actual property. The required elevation can depend on the flood-zone designation, the municipal freeboard, the Design Flood Elevation, Coastal A or V Zone conditions, NJDEP requirements and the applicable building-code provisions. Each flood-zone installation is worked out individually.
How quickly does it take over?
The automatic start sequence normally begins within seconds of the controller deciding that utility power has failed or fallen outside acceptable limits. There is a deliberate short delay so that a momentary flicker does not trigger a full start and transfer. Exact timing depends on the controller, the transfer switch and the configuration.
