FAQs
What types of generators does Consistent Performance Electrical service and install in Oneida?
We work with a full range of residential, commercial, and light-industrial generators, including standby (automatic), portable, PTO-driven, and inverter models. Our technicians are factory-trained on major brands such as Generac, Kohler, Cummins, Briggs & Stratton, and CAT, so we can perform installation, maintenance, and repairs on virtually any unit rated from 2 kW up to 500 kW.
How do I determine the correct generator size for my home or business?
Proper sizing starts with a load analysis. For homes we total the running watts of critical circuits (HVAC, well pump, refrigerator, lights, etc.) and add a safety margin for start-up surges. For businesses we review single-phase vs. three-phase loads, motor-starting currents, and any future expansion plans. Once total kilowatt demand is known, we select a generator that can handle 110–125 % of that figure to ensure reliability and longevity. We offer complimentary on-site assessments in Oneida to help you choose the right capacity.
How often should a standby generator be serviced?
Most manufacturers recommend preventive maintenance every 6 months or after 100–150 run hours—whichever comes first. A standard service visit includes an oil and filter change, air filter inspection, spark-plug replacement (gasoline/Natural gas units), coolant level check, battery load test, and a full automatic transfer switch (ATS) exercise. For diesel units we also test fuel quality and change fuel filters annually. Regular maintenance is the single best way to avoid unexpected failures during an outage.
Does Consistent Performance Electrical offer 24/7 emergency generator repair in Oneida?
Yes. We have an on-call team available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our service vehicles are stocked with common parts—belts, sensors, controllers, and filters—allowing us to resolve most breakdowns on the first visit. Typical response time within Oneida city limits is 60–90 minutes, and within Madison and Oneida counties it’s usually under 2 hours.
Will I need a permit to install a standby generator at my Oneida property?
In almost all cases, yes. The City of Oneida requires an electrical permit and, for natural-gas units, a plumbing/gas permit. A site inspection ensures compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), local zoning setbacks, and noise regulations (56 dB limit at property line for residential zones). We handle the entire permitting process, including load calculations, site drawings, and the final inspection with the city’s code enforcement officer.
What warranty and financing options are available?
Most new generators come with a 5-year limited manufacturer’s warranty covering parts and labor for defects. We are an authorized service dealer, so warranty repairs are completed at no cost to you. Extended 10-year warranties are available for select models. For financing, we partner with Synchrony and GreenSky; qualified homeowners can secure 0 % APR for 12 months or fixed APR plans up to 10 years. Commercial clients may opt for operating leases or Section 179 tax-advantaged purchases.
