16 kW Generac standby generator in Farmingdale, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Debra from Farmingdale, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2024. The Generac 7176 at the house is a 16 kW machine on natural gas feeding a 70-amp transfer switch, installed in March of 2021 by another company. Green Sun has serviced it in July of 2024, July of 2025 and September of 2026. Taking on a three-year-old machine is straightforward work: the first visit establishes what has been done and what has not, and after that it is an ordinary annual cycle.

Standby generator questions from Farmingdale homeowners
Which electrical code applies to a new installation?
Under the current New Jersey code cycle the Electrical Subcode adopts the 2023 National Electrical Code. Projects filed during a code-transition period are evaluated under the applicable transition provisions rather than assumed into the newer cycle.
Can the existing natural-gas service in a Farmingdale 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.
How much clearance is needed above a generator?
Applicable air-cooled guidance requires roughly five feet of overhead clearance from structures, overhangs and projections. That is what rules out a good many low decks, roof overhangs and alcoves as generator locations, and it is worth establishing early rather than after a site is chosen.
