Alexander from Atlantic Highlands, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2024. His 18 kW Generac from the 7200 series is on Diamond, which puts the maintenance, the parts and the Wi-Fi monitoring under one agreement. Diamond is the tier we recommend on the newer 7200s, where the monitoring is built in and worth using. Atlantic Highlands is in Monmouth County.
Mike at Green Sun did a fantastic job with my generator. We’ve trusted them for year to do maintenance on it and haven’t had a single issue. It starts right up whenever is needed. When Mike came this year to service it, he had great attention to detail, replacing/refreshing all necessary components. I hardly even noticed he was there until he came to the door with the service record. Thanks Mike and Green Sun for everything!
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Alexander, and Mike will be glad to hear it. Starting right up whenever it is needed is the only thing a standby generator has to do, and it does that because somebody looks at it every year. The machine at your home in Atlantic Highlands is also monitored remotely, so a fault between visits reaches us rather than waiting for the next one.
Why Alexander chose Green Sun Energy Services
We keep your generator ready before the power goes out.

Standby generator questions from Atlantic Highlands homeowners
How can a whole house be carried on a smaller electrical service?
Through load management. One or more large loads are controlled so they do not start at the same moment, or shut down briefly if generator demand climbs too high. That is what allows whole-house coverage where the raw sum of every connected load would otherwise exceed the machine.
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 in a flood zone in Atlantic Highlands?
Yes, but the generator and its electrical equipment may need to be elevated or otherwise protected. The installation is evaluated against the property's FEMA flood zone, its Base Flood Elevation and Design Flood Elevation, the municipal flood ordinance, any applicable freeboard, and NJDEP requirements where they apply. It is a property-by-property assessment rather than a rule of thumb.
