Why Install a Generator?

Even with improvements to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas’s (ERCOT) ability to manage higher electrical demand during sudden winter freezes and high-use periods in the summer, many Texans remain wary of grid issues. As a result, residential and commercial property owners alike are installing generator systems. 

The primary benefit of a generator is having power during electrical outages and shortages. A generator ensures that essential appliances, security systems, and medical equipment can continue to operate, offering peace of mind. 

Generators can also:

  • Protect food and supplies. Perishable food and supplies can go bad during outages. With a generator, individuals can keep refrigerators, freezers, and other essential equipment running, preserving food and avoiding unnecessary and costly waste. 
  • Sustain a building’s comfort. Many generators can support heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, providing comfort during extreme weather. They can also allow homes and businesses to continue to use other essential appliances like water pumps, lighting, and communication devices. 
  • Ensure business continuity. For businesses in Texas, a generator is vital for maintaining operations during power outages or shortages. It enables businesses to continue serving customers and sustain operations, which can prevent losses due to downtime. 

Common Types of Generators

The market has various types of generators, each with different capacities and features that can support the needs of residential and commercial properties. 

Below we have detailed some of the most common types and what they offer:

  • Portable. Portable generators are versatile and easy to move around. They run on gasoline, propane, or diesel fuel and provide temporary power during outages. These generators work for residential purposes, outdoor activities, or small businesses.
  • Inverter. Inverter generators are compact, quiet, and fuel-efficient. They produce clean and stable electricity by converting the generated AC power into DC power and then back to AC power. Inverter generators are ideal for recreational activities, camping, or as a backup energy source for small appliances. 
  • Standby. These permanent backup systems automatically detect outages and switch on to deliver power. Standby generators are available in different sizes and can support essential circuits or an entire building. 
  • Commercial Generators. Commercial generators provide power for larger buildings or facilities, such as hospitals, data centers, factories, and warehouses. These generators come in a range of sizes and capacities to accommodate a facility’s specific energy demands.

Choosing the Right Generator

If you are thinking of installing a generator, you will likely wonder what you ought to account for when choosing a backup system. 

We have you covered with these five crucial considerations: 

  1. Power Requirements: Assessing what essential appliances, equipment, and systems need power during an outage will help you determine your generator capacity. Consulting with our generator specialists at Murphy’s Electric can ensure you make accurate calculations.
  2. Fuel Type: Generators can run on gasoline, diesel, propane, or natural gas. The generator’s cost-effectiveness will depend on its fuel price and availability. 
  3. Installation and Maintenance: Standby generators typically require professional installation and periodic maintenance. Portable generators may be more user-friendly but still require regular maintenance to prolong their lifespan. 
  4. Noise Level: Generators produce varying noise levels, so selecting a model with low noise emissions can maintain a peaceful environment. 
  5. Relevant Codes and Regulations: In The Woodlands, Magnolia, Spring, and the surrounding areas, local codes may dictate whether you can install and operate a generator. Our team isup to date on these codes and can help you avoid any compliance issues.

    These guys are stand-up guys. Will not try to charge an arm and a leg just because they can. The job I needed done was not an ordinary job. It was even turned down by two other electricians. Murphy Electric knocked it out of the park.
