Jon from Matawan, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2023. The generator was installed by another company and commissioned in October of 2013, and the servicing came to us ten years later, which is an unusual point at which to take a machine on. By then a standby generator has passed every early interval and is into the part of its life where the same annual work simply repeats – the ten-year service has now been carried out in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Nothing about that is dramatic, and that is rather the point: a machine in its thirteenth year that starts when asked is the product of somebody having done the ordinary thing every year. An annual maintenance plan covers the visit.

Standby generator questions from Matawan homeowners
What actually gets done at a service visit?
It depends on the model, the age and the interval, but typically engine oil and filter, air filter, spark plug inspection or replacement, battery inspection, a fuel-system leak check, sediment-trap inspection, valve clearance where applicable, and inspection of the enclosure and intakes.
Does a generator produce less on natural gas than on propane?
Some models do have a lower rated maximum output on natural gas than on propane -- a current 22 kW machine is rated 22 kW on LP and 21 kW on natural gas. Other models carry their own ratings, so the model-specific specification sheet is what settles it rather than a general rule.
Does a generator keep the well running during an outage in Matawan?
Yes, when the well pump is included in the design. A private well pump is electric, so without power there is no running water at all -- a different order of problem from losing the lights. Homes on a well are among the clearest cases for standby power, and the pump belongs on the load list from the start.
