Mary from Leonardo, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since December of 2017. Her 22 kW Generac from the 7000 series was installed by another company and she brought the servicing to us within days of it going in, on a Silver plan that has run ever since. Leonardo sits on the Bayshore in Monmouth County, where a generator earns its annual visit.
Why Mary chose Green Sun Energy Services

Standby generator questions from Leonardo homeowners
Does the clearance apply to a fixed window as well as one that opens?
A permanently fixed pane may be treated differently from an operable window, because the concern in the placement guidance is exhaust and carbon monoxide entering the building. Even so, the installer has to evaluate the exact model's manual and everything nearby -- operable windows, doors, vents, fresh-air intakes, window wells and mechanical openings. A fixed window should never simply be assumed acceptable.
Does a generator in Leonardo 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.
Can the generator go in the back yard?
Yes, provided the location complies with the installation instructions and the applicable state and municipal requirements. A distant back-yard position lengthens the electrical and gas runs, which can call for larger conductors or larger gas piping and can raise the cost of the installation.
