Andy from Middletown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2026. His generator is a NEXTGEN 24 kW Generac from the 7300 series, and it sits on our PowerBase Platinum plan. The 7300s report over a cellular connection rather than the house Wi-Fi, which removes the most common reason monitoring quietly stops working: somebody changes the router. Platinum covers the scheduled maintenance alongside that monitoring. Middletown is in Monmouth County.

Standby generator questions from Middletown homeowners
Will a larger gas meter be needed?
Possibly. A generator can significantly increase a home's maximum gas demand. If the existing meter or service cannot hold the required pressure while supplying the generator and the other appliances together, the gas utility may require an upgrade.
How much space does a generator need in front of it?
For applicable air-cooled installations, roughly three feet of unobstructed clearance at the front, for airflow and for servicing. Fences, shrubs and stored materials should not intrude into that space. Newer models should be checked against their own current manual.
What is Base Flood Elevation and why does it matter here?
Base Flood Elevation is the elevation associated with the base flood -- generally the flood with a one percent chance of being reached or exceeded in any year. For a generator it is often the starting point for working out how high the mechanical and electrical equipment has to be protected or raised.
