FAQs
What types of cutting-edge generators do you offer in Johnson City?
We supply a full range of advanced generators, including high-efficiency natural-gas standby units, diesel and dual-fuel industrial sets, portable inverter models for sensitive electronics, and renewable-ready hybrid systems that integrate with solar or battery storage. All units feature smart controls, remote monitoring, and automatic transfer switches to keep your power on without interruption.
How do I determine the correct generator size for my home or business?
Our technicians perform an on-site load assessment that measures the starting (surge) and running wattage of your critical appliances, HVAC, and machinery. Using this data, we model peak demand, voltage drop, and future expansion needs, then recommend a generator (usually expressed in kilowatts, kW) with at least 20% headroom to ensure reliability and fuel efficiency.
How efficient and environmentally friendly are your generators?
Our newest lines use electronically controlled engines, low-emission exhaust systems, and variable-speed technology to match output with demand, cutting fuel consumption by up to 25% compared with conventional models. Natural-gas units meet EPA Tier 4 standards, and several models can run on renewable biogas or biodiesel blends to further reduce your carbon footprint.
What is involved in the installation process?
After the load assessment, we obtain local permits, pour a concrete pad or prepare a vibration-isolating base, and position the generator with a crane or forklift. Licensed electricians connect the generator to your main service panel through an automatic transfer switch, while plumbers run fuel lines (natural gas or propane) to ensure proper pressure and safety. A final start-up test and inspection with local code officials complete the job—typically within one to three days, depending on complexity.
Do you provide maintenance and emergency repair services?
Yes. We offer customizable maintenance plans that include quarterly or annual oil changes, coolant checks, load-bank testing, firmware updates, and 24/7 remote diagnostics. Our on-call technicians can be dispatched within two hours for emergency repairs, and most common parts are stocked locally in Johnson City to minimize downtime.
Are financing or incentive programs available for generator purchases?
We partner with regional banks to provide 0% introductory financing for up to 18 months, plus extended low-interest plans up to 120 months. Businesses may qualify for federal Section 179 tax deductions on capital equipment, and homeowners in Tennessee can tap into TVA EnergyRight loans for high-efficiency natural-gas units. Our team will help you complete all paperwork and rebate applications to maximize savings.
