Randy from Freehold, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since December of 2019. The Generac at the house is a 14 kW machine on a 60-amp transfer switch, installed in August of 2013. Green Sun serviced it in December of 2019 and again in December of 2020 – spark plug and air filter, oil and filter, battery inspection, load testing and diagnostics each time. A 60-amp switch on a 14 kW machine is an essential-circuits installation, and on a machine of that age the annual service is what keeps it starting.

Standby generator questions from Freehold homeowners
Does new gas piping have to be pressure tested in Freehold?
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 much space is needed at the ends of the generator?
Applicable air-cooled installation instructions commonly require about three feet at the ends. That space protects cooling airflow, exhaust operation and the access a technician needs to work on the machine. The model-specific manual controls.
Can a standby generator run central air conditioning?
Yes, when it is sized for it. The design has to account for both the running demand and the starting surge of the air-conditioning equipment. Load-management equipment can be used where necessary so that demand does not all arrive at once.
