Why Every Midwest Home Needs a Standby Generator

If you live in the Midwest, you know how fast the weather can turn. Severe thunderstorms, ice storms, tornadoes, and polar vortex events have become increasingly common, and increasingly severe. A Generac whole-home standby generator isn’t a luxury anymore. It’s a necessity.

The Cost of Being Unprepared

The average power outage costs a homeowner $1,000 to $3,000 in food spoilage, hotel stays, and property damage. Homeowners with medical equipment or home offices face even greater losses. A standby generator pays for itself after just a few outages.

How a Standby Generator Works

Unlike portable generators that require you to drag them out, fill them with gas, and manually connect them, a Generac standby generator:

  • Is permanently installed outside your home
  • Runs on natural gas or propane, no fuel to store
  • Automatically starts within seconds of a power outage
  • Automatically shuts off when utility power is restored
  • Self-tests weekly to ensure it’s ready when you need it
