Robert from Florham Park, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2018. He signed in the middle of June and the generator was commissioned in late August, a 16 kW Generac wired through a 150-amp service-rated transfer switch. The enclosure is aluminum and it sits on its own pad, which is the arrangement that still looks respectable ten years in. A Generac service contract has covered the maintenance since. Florham Park is in Morris County, the furthest northwest we regularly work.
Glenn Koedding, the owner, was there every step of the way and he stands behind what he says. In our opinion, prices for the unit may vary from dealer to dealer, but the real value in the installation is to utilize people that are trustworthy. Glenn did my neighbor's install as well and he came heavily recommended. Many people have no idea on the complexity of the install and you need the right team involved. i would be happy to answer any questions regarding Green Sun Energy and their team. Overall, we couldn't be happier. Robert
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Robert. Standing behind what was said is the whole of it, and it is easier to do when the person saying it owns the company. The 16 kW Generac at your home in Florham Park sits in an aluminum enclosure on a concrete pad, which is the arrangement that lasts on a New Jersey lot.
Why Robert chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Florham Park homeowners
Does a 200-amp service need a 200-amp transfer switch?
A transfer switch installed in the service path has to be rated appropriately for the service and the configuration. A 200-amp service commonly uses a 200-amp service-rated switch, but the actual design is confirmed by the electrician rather than assumed from the service size.
Can a generator be installed on a deck or a roof?
Platform, deck and supporting-structure installations are recognized, but they call for additional review: structural capacity, noncombustible surface requirements, fire clearance, exhaust, airflow, vibration, service access and local requirements all have to be addressed. It is a site-specific installation rather than a routine location.
How close to the house can a generator sit in Florham Park?
For the air-cooled models covered by the manufacturer's listed installation guidance, the rear of the generator can be as close as eighteen inches to a qualifying structure when every condition of that listing is met. That eighteen inches is a tested installation dimension, not a zoning setback, and a municipality can require more.
