The Facts About Standby Generators

Every week, an average of about 3.5 million people will experience a sudden power outage in their home. Storms come and go but what are the costs that they leave behind? A power outage can do more than leave you and your household in the dark. A standby generator could just be a solution to protect you and your home from unwanted costs and damage.

In the dead of winter, an outage can leave you without heat. In the summer, it can cause your home to become unlivable during a heat wave. The cost of a hotel room to protect yourself from the cold and heat runs about $150+ per night. But living conditions and expenses aren’t the only costs you have to consider. A power outage can cause you to lose up to $200 in spoiled food!
