Nicholas and Brittany from Rumson, NJ have been Green Sun Energy Services clients since 2020, and came back for soft washing six years later. The generator was installed by another company and the servicing came to us at the six-year mark. Every interval since has been kept – visits in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, with the next already in hand. Soft washing followed in 2026, and this one covered the roof as well as the siding: a sodium hypochlorite and surfactant formula applied at low pressure to a steep 9-to-12 pitch. Low pressure is the whole point on a roof. A pressure washer drives water under shingles and strips the granules that protect them, which is how a cleaning job becomes a roofing job. A maintenance plan covers the generator’s yearly visit.

Standby generator questions from Rumson homeowners
Does the house run on the generator during its weekly exercise?
Not necessarily -- it depends on the generation of equipment, the controller and the configuration. Traditional systems commonly exercise without transferring the house at all. Newer equipment with current controls may support different exercise and transfer behaviour.
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Rumson 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.
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.
