★ Keeping Acadiana Out Of The Dark
When choosing a generator, think about your power needs, budget, and how often you expect to use it. Consider what essentials you’ll need to keep running during an outage, whether it’s just the basics or your entire home or business. Factors like fuel type (natural gas, propane, or diesel), noise level, and automatic vs. manual startup also play a key role in finding the right fit.
At Freedom Electric, we offer a variety of options, from portable units to fully automatic standby generators that kick in the moment power is lost. We’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each system, handle the installation, and ensure everything is up to code and ready when you need it most. With our help, you can feel confident knowing your generator is built to perform and built to last.
The right size depends on which appliances and systems you want to power during an outage. We’ll help assess your energy needs and recommend the proper capacity for safe, efficient operation.
Portable generators are manually operated and typically only power select items. Standby generators are permanently installed, kick on automatically during an outage, and can power your whole home or business.
It depends on the fuel type, load, and model. Some standby generators can run continuously for days with proper fuel supply and maintenance. Generators that are hooked up to the natural gas line can be powered indefinitely as long as the gas supply is uninterrupted.
Generators should always be installed outdoors on a flat, well-ventilated surface, at least 5 feet away from windows, doors, vents, and combustible materials. Never place them indoors, in garages, or near air intakes, as this can cause dangerous carbon monoxide buildup. Avoid flood-prone areas. At Freedom Electric, we have in-depth knowledge about all the generator systems we sell, including fuel sources and code-compliant installations. With Freedom Electric, your backup power is safe, reliable, and installed properly in a safe location.
Like all home appliances, generators require routine maintenance to make sure they operate reliably when you need them most. This typically includes oil and filter changes, battery checks, coolant level inspections, and regular test runs. For standby generators, it’s recommended to have professional service at least once or twice a year, depending on usage. At Freedom Electric, we offer maintenance plans to keep your system in peak condition, so you’re always prepared, no matter the forecast.
Only standby generators with an automatic transfer switch will start and switch power automatically. Portable units must be manually started and connected.
