INSTALLATION
Residential generators can be life-changing for New Jersey residents.
Whether you’re dealing with a bad storm or a county-induced outage,
the right generator can keep your home running as though nothing ever happened.
It’s an essential accessory for the modern home. Generators can provide power for all necessities.
For instance, your refrigerator, your medical equipment — or the entire house.
​
They deliver reliable power no matter what happens to the electricity supply.

Setting the Generator
in Place
A prefab pad for the generator will be set in place keeping it a minimum of 18” from the foundation
and 5’ from a window.
The home generator will then be placed on the prefab pad.
Supply and Install
Gas Piping
Gas piping from the gas meter
to the new generator will be supplied and installed using a flexible wire mesh hose to eliminate vibration between the gas pipe and generator.
