Cecile from Marlboro, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2026. The Generac at the house was installed by another company in November of 2020, runs on natural gas, is rated 16 kW on either fuel and is switched by a 70-amp automatic transfer switch. The servicing moved to Green Sun in May of 2026 and started at the six-year interval. A machine that has stood by through six winters is at the point where plugs, filters, oil and battery are better attended to on a schedule than after a failure, and that is what the annual visit covers.

Standby generator questions from Marlboro homeowners
Is a standby generator the same as a portable one?
No. A home standby generator is permanently installed and automatically connected to the home's electrical and fuel systems. A portable normally has to be placed, fuelled, started and connected by hand each time, using approved connection equipment. The standby machine is designed as an integrated backup-power system rather than as something you fetch out of the garage.
Can a generator be installed in a flood zone in Marlboro?
Yes, but the generator and its electrical equipment may need to be elevated or otherwise protected. The installation is evaluated against the property's FEMA flood zone, its Base Flood Elevation and Design Flood Elevation, the municipal flood ordinance, any applicable freeboard, and NJDEP requirements where they apply. It is a property-by-property assessment rather than a rule of thumb.
Does every generator need a valve adjustment?
No. Valve-clearance requirements depend on the engine and the model. The technician identifies the model and serial number and follows the applicable maintenance schedule, rather than assuming every air-cooled machine gets the same procedure.
