Gerri from Red Bank, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since January of 2015. She and Tom signed at the end of January and the generator was commissioned in late April, a 22 kW Generac in an aluminum enclosure on its own pad, behind a 200-amp service-rated transfer switch with surge protection built in and a five year warranty. A Generac service contract has kept it maintained through the decade since, which is why a unit from 2015 still starts. Red Bank is in Monmouth County, where we have been installing standby power for over a decade.
Trey serviced our generator. He was very professional, pleasant and explained everything.

Standby generator questions from Red Bank homeowners
Does a generator produce less on natural gas than on propane?
Some models do have a lower rated maximum output on natural gas than on propane -- a current 22 kW machine is rated 22 kW on LP and 21 kW on natural gas. Other models carry their own ratings, so the model-specific specification sheet is what settles it rather than a general rule.
Does the generator have to be bolted down?
Not every ground-level installation uses the same anchoring method. The requirement changes with the model, the pad type, wind exposure, flood requirements, elevated platforms and any local engineering requirement. The model manual and the site conditions decide it.
What happens if the manufacturer and Red Bank disagree?
The installation has to satisfy all applicable requirements. A manufacturer's listing cannot be ignored, and a manufacturer's minimum clearance does not cancel a municipal zoning requirement. Where requirements conflict or the interpretation is uncertain, the Authority Having Jurisdiction is consulted before the work goes in rather than after.
