Smaller and more affordable than traditional systems and 50 percent quieter than most portables, the generator will turn on automatically when utility power fails and comes equipped with a power management system that balances the demands of most small- and medium-sized homes.816-842-0141.

  • Generac Guardian Series Offers Security, Convenience at Affordable Price
  • Source: ebuild 7/30/2009
  • According to a January 2009 report released by the Electricity Advisory Committee to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the current U.S. electric power delivery system infrastructure will be unable to ensure a reliable, cost-effective, secure and environmentally sustainable supply of electricity for the next two decades. As severe weather continues to strike and blackouts become more common, homeowners can no longer rely on the fragile, aging national power grid and electrical infrastructure and need to consider alternative solutions to power the home. One protection for homeowners against these unforeseen power outages is to install a standby power generator that automatically comes on when the power goes out. Recent technological advancements have made automatic standby power generators more affordable for homeowners. For example, depending on the number of essential circuits required, homes can be protected for as little as $2,000 plus installation with the Generac Guardian series eight kilowatt (kW) unit. More
