FAQs
Why is consistent performance important for my standby generator in Robbins?
Robbins experiences seasonal storms and occasional grid outages, so a generator that starts instantly and runs smoothly protects critical appliances, HVAC systems, medical devices, and business equipment. Consistent performance minimizes downtime, prevents costly spoilage or data loss, and provides peace of mind that your home or facility will remain powered no matter how long the utility interruption lasts.
What maintenance schedule do you recommend to keep my generator running smoothly?
Most manufacturers call for a comprehensive inspection every 6–12 months or after 200 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Our Robbins technicians perform fluid and filter changes, battery load tests, fuel‐system cleaning, software updates, and a full load-bank test to verify that the unit can deliver its rated output. We also run a brief weekly exercise cycle (automatic or manual) to circulate oil and identify any developing issues before they lead to failure.
Can you service generators from all major manufacturers?
Yes. Our EPA-certified and factory-trained electricians work on Generac, Kohler, Cummins, Briggs & Stratton, Cat, Champion, and many other brands. We stock commonly used OEM parts and diagnostic software so most repairs can be completed on the first visit, regardless of the unit’s age or fuel type (natural gas, diesel, propane, or bi-fuel).
How quickly can your Robbins team respond to an emergency generator breakdown?
For customers with a preventative maintenance agreement, we guarantee a technician on-site within four hours of your call, 24/7/365. Non-contract customers typically receive same-day service if the call comes in before noon; after-hours or weekend requests are queued in the order received but still prioritized during severe weather events.
Do you offer remote monitoring solutions for continuous performance tracking?
Absolutely. We install cellular or Wi-Fi modules that send real-time alerts about exercise cycles, fault codes, battery voltage, coolant temperature, and run hours to both our service desk and your mobile app. Remote monitoring allows us to correct minor issues—such as low coolant or firmware glitches—before they escalate, ensuring the generator is always ready when the grid goes down.
What factors should I consider when choosing the right size generator for my home or business?
Start by listing the loads you want to power: lights, refrigeration, HVAC, servers, medical equipment, motors, and any surge-heavy devices. Add their running watts, factor in starting kVA for motors or compressors, and include 20–25% headroom for future expansion. Fuel availability (natural gas vs. diesel), noise restrictions in Robbins, and local permitting rules also influence your choice. Our sizing assessment includes a site visit, load calculations, and a quotation for a turnkey installation that meets NEC and village code requirements.
