- When Power Outages Strike, Are Your Clients Left in the Dark?
- BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (11/8/2007)
- Every house depends heavily on electrical power, so what happens to homes and their owners when severe weather or a failure of the power grid causes a loss of electricity, potentially lasting days or weeks? If they have an automatic standby generator, the owners are well-equipped to weather power outages in relative-or complete-comfort. Recent hurricane seasons reminded homeowners that the power supply is highly susceptible to weather events and that when it goes out, they are not only inconvenienced, their health and well-being also may be compromised. Previous generations would tough it out, but more people demand 24/7 comfort or want their homes to be more self-reliant. "People don't want to go without power for very long," says Roddy Yates, marketing manager for Baldor.
