Chris from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2023. He signed that November and we completed the installation in March of 2024, an 18 kW Generac standby generator wired through a 150-amp automatic transfer switch to carry the whole house. A Generac service contract keeps it monitored remotely and maintained on schedule, with five years of warranty coverage running alongside. Middletown is in Monmouth County, where a long outage is a matter of when rather than if, and where we install and service generators every week of the year.
Mike was very efficient and the service went smoothly.
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Chris, and Mike will be pleased. Your Generac standby generator in Middletown was installed by our own crews and is serviced by them too, which is why a visit tends to be efficient: nobody has to work out how the system was put together first. Thank you for the review.
Why Chris chose Green Sun Energy Services
Complete backup power, from sizing and installation to the service that keeps it ready.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
Can the generator stay connected during a pressure test?
The machine has to be protected from test pressures beyond what its fuel controls are built to withstand. The fuel-gas code sets out when appliances are disconnected or isolated for testing, and the plumbing contractor follows both that code and the generator's installation instructions.
What happens if the manufacturer and Middletown 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.
What does a whole-house generator actually mean?
Whole-house generally means the transfer equipment serves the home's main electrical system rather than a small emergency-circuit panel. It does not promise unlimited capacity. High-demand appliances may still be prioritized or briefly shed while generator capacity is being used elsewhere.
