FAQs
What types of cutting-edge generators do you offer in Calhoun?
We stock a full line of state-of-the-art standby, prime-power, and portable generators ranging from 8 kW residential units to 2 MW industrial systems. Technologies include high-efficiency diesel, low-emission natural gas, bi-fuel hybrids, and smart inverter-based models that seamlessly integrate with solar arrays and battery storage. All units are UL-listed, EPA-certified, and engineered to handle Calhoun’s humidity, heat, and occasional severe-weather events.
How do your generators improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs?
Our newest platforms use electronic engine management, variable-speed alternators, and permanent-magnet generators to match power output to the real-time load. This lowers fuel consumption by up to 25 % compared with traditional fixed-speed sets. Integrated micro-processors also enable load-shedding and automatic start/stop, minimizing idle time. For commercial sites, optional CHP (combined heat and power) modules reclaim waste heat for water or space heating, driving total system efficiency above 90 %.
Do you handle turnkey installation and local permitting in Calhoun?
Yes. Our NABCEP- and EGSA-certified installation team manages every step—site survey, concrete pad construction, electrical and gas hookups, transfer-switch integration, load-bank testing, and final commissioning. We prepare all drawings and submit permit packages to the Calhoun Building Inspection Department, coordinate utility approvals, and schedule final inspections, ensuring the system is fully code-compliant before hand-off.
What maintenance is required and do you offer service plans?
Routine maintenance includes oil and filter changes every 200–250 runtime hours, cooling-system inspections, battery checks, and annual load-bank testing. We offer three service tiers: Essential (annual tune-ups), Plus (quarterly visits with remote monitoring), and Premium (24/7 monitoring, priority dispatch, and fuel-polishing for diesel tanks). All plans include firmware updates to keep your generator operating at peak performance.
How loud are your generators and do they meet local noise ordinances?
Residential models average 60–65 dB(A) at 23 ft—quieter than a normal conversation—thanks to advanced acoustic enclosures, low-rpm engines, and vibration-isolating mounts. Commercial units use hospital-grade silencers and can be specified with Level-2 or Level-3 sound-attenuated enclosures to comply with Calhoun’s 70 dB(A) daytime and 60 dB(A) nighttime limits. We provide on-site sound studies on request.
What warranty and emergency support do you provide?
All generators come with a 5-year/2,000-hour limited warranty covering parts and labor. Extended 10-year coverage is available. Our local Calhoun dispatch center offers 24/7 emergency response with a guaranteed 4-hour on-site arrival for Premium plan customers and 8-hour response for others. A fully stocked parts warehouse ensures most repairs are completed on the first visit.
