CHOOSING A GENERATOR
Varieties of Home Generators
A diverse array of home generators exists, spanning capacities and types: whole-home standby units, varying-sized inverters, and portable models. Which one is right depends entirely on what you need it to carry.
Whole-Home Standby Units
Permanently installed and typically powered by natural gas, these cover the whole house automatically when power fails.
Automatic Activation
Standby generators sense an outage and start on their own. No one has to be home to switch anything on.
Inverter Generators
Available in a range of capacities, these suit homes needing targeted rather than whole-house coverage.
Portable Models
A lower-cost option for essential circuits, though it requires manual setup each time power is lost.
Sizing for Your Home
The right size hinges on purpose: complete emergency coverage needs a different unit from essential-circuit backup.
Medical or Sump Pump Needs
Homes with medical equipment or a sump pump that must keep running have a different threshold for backup power.
