FAQs
What types of generators do you service in the Dayton area?
We maintain and repair a full spectrum of generators, including residential standby units (7–24 kW), commercial diesel and natural-gas sets up to 2 MW, portable job-site generators, and prime-power systems for industrial facilities. Our team is factory-trained on major brands such as Cummins, Generac, Kohler, CAT, MTU, and Briggs & Stratton, ensuring we can source OEM parts and follow manufacturer-specific maintenance schedules.
How often should my generator receive preventative maintenance?
For most backup generators, we recommend a semi-annual maintenance plan—one minor service every six months and one major service annually. Critical-load or prime-power units may require quarterly or even monthly inspections depending on runtime hours. Our technicians record run-time data, oil analysis, and load-bank results to customize the exact interval that keeps your equipment compliant with NFPA 110 and manufacturer warranties.
What is included in your comprehensive maintenance package?
Our Dayton comprehensive plan covers: (1) inspection of wiring, control boards, and safety shutdowns; (2) oil and filter change, coolant test, and fuel-system conditioning; (3) battery conductance testing and charger calibration; (4) valve adjustment and belt tensioning; (5) load-bank testing up to 100 % rated capacity; and (6) detailed digital reports with photographs, voltage/frequency readings, and recommended corrective actions. Emergency call-outs within 2 hours are also included at no extra charge.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency generator repair?
Yes. Our Dayton dispatch center is staffed around the clock. Certified technicians equipped with stocked service vans respond within 2 hours city-wide and within 4 hours to outlying Montgomery, Greene, and Miami counties. We carry common parts—starter motors, voltage regulators, AVR boards, and fuel pumps—to restore power during the first visit whenever possible.
How much does generator maintenance cost?
Pricing depends on generator size and fuel type, but typical ranges are $275–$325 for a single-family standby unit and $650–$1,200 for commercial sets up to 500 kW. Multi-unit sites and prime-power applications qualify for volume discounts. After a free on-site assessment, we provide a fixed annual contract that covers all labor, travel, and consumables, so you never face surprise bills.
Can you help with regulatory and warranty compliance?
Absolutely. We document every service step to meet NFPA 110, Joint Commission, and local Dayton fire-marshal requirements. Our digital logs can be exported directly to your compliance software. Because we follow the OEM maintenance schedule and use genuine parts, our work keeps manufacturer warranties fully intact and extends equipment life.
