David from Old Bridge, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2021. He put his 22 kW Generac from the 7000 series on Diamond, our most complete plan and Wi-Fi monitoring. Diamond folds the maintenance visits, the parts and the monitoring into a single arrangement, which suits a large unit where a small fault left alone becomes an expensive one. Old Bridge is in Middlesex County, and this generator has been under contract from the month it went on plan.

Standby generator questions from Old Bridge homeowners
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Old Bridge home supply a generator?
Often yes, but the gas system has to be evaluated first. The review covers the generator's BTU demand, meter capacity, available pressure, regulator capacity, pipe diameter and length, and every other gas appliance in the house -- furnace, boiler, water heater, range and fireplace among them.
Can a fence be put around the generator?
Potentially, but a fence cannot encroach on the required airflow, exhaust and service clearances. A removable screening panel suits some installations, though technicians still need room to open the machine and work on it safely. Local zoning may separately require or regulate screening.
Does the transfer switch need flood protection as well as the generator?
Yes. A flood review should cover much more than the generator enclosure. FEMA recommends that a residential standby system consider elevation or protection of the generator, the transfer switch, the normal and emergency panels, the feeders and the control wiring together.
