Robert from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2018. His 20 kW Generac from the 5800 series was installed by another company in September of 2013 and he switched the servicing to us five years later, on a Silver plan. A machine that age needs its annual visit more than a new one does, not less. Middletown is in Monmouth County.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
Does the residential building code apply to a generator?
It can. For applicable one- and two-family dwellings New Jersey adopts the 2024 International Residential Code, subject to state amendments. Structural and flood-related generator installations may therefore need review under the residential subcode as well as the electrical and fuel requirements.
What does the kW number on a generator mean?
It is the maximum continuous output the machine is rated to produce under the manufacturer's specified conditions. A current 22 kW model, for example, is rated 22 kW on liquid propane and 21 kW on natural gas. That difference is exactly why the fuel and the model both matter when a generator is sized.
What does remote monitoring actually tell you?
Depending on the generator and the connectivity, remote monitoring can report status, maintenance notifications, alarms, exercise information and operating history. Its real value is that a fault announces itself between service visits, instead of being discovered during the outage it was bought for.
