Rohini from Colts Neck, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2021. The machine is a Generac 7226 rated 18 kW on propane and 17 kW on natural gas, running on natural gas, on a 150-amp transfer switch, and it was commissioned in January of 2022. At about 2,055 square feet the house sits comfortably inside what an 18 kW machine carries, so the switch transfers the whole panel rather than a selected list. Green Sun has serviced it in December of 2022, December of 2023, November of 2024 and November of 2025, and it reports to remote monitoring in between.
Why Rohini chose Green Sun Energy Services

Standby generator questions from Colts Neck homeowners
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Colts Neck?
Yes. Gas piping subject to the adopted fuel-gas code must be inspected and tested before it is accepted. New Jersey adopts the 2024 International Fuel Gas Code, which governs the inspection, the test pressure and how long the test has to hold.
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.
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.
