We are an authorized Generac dealer and we specialize in automatic generators. Our technicians are trained for service and repairs for Generac Generators. Generac has nearly 60 years of experience providing home electrical solutions and backup generators. Generac was the first to engineer affordable home standby generators, and they remain the #1 name in home backup generators today.
Generac standby generators offer comfort, security, and convenience by automatically delivering power to your home during outages. Installed outside like a central AC unit, they connect directly to your electrical system and run on natural gas or propane, eliminating the need for manual operation or refueling. With features like Wi-Fi monitoring and load management, they provide reliable, efficient power. As certified Generac installers, we serve Charlotte, Gastonia, Fort Mill, and surrounding areas in NC & SC.
When the power goes out, having a reliable backup source is essential for comfort, safety, and convenience. Homeowners often ask: Should I choose a Generac automatic standby generator or a portable generator? Both options provide backup power, but the differences in performance, reliability, and long-term value are significant.
A standby generator is a permanently installed unit located outside your home, much like a central AC system. It automatically detects a power outage and turns on within seconds—delivering electricity directly to your home’s electrical panel. With a standby generator, you can power your entire home or select essential circuits, keeping your HVAC system, refrigerators, lights, and outlets running without interruption.
A portable generator is a smaller, mobile unit that must be manually set up and started during a power outage. It typically runs on gasoline and can only provide temporary electricity to a few appliances or devices using extension cords or a manual transfer switch. Because of its limited power capacity, need for refueling, and manual operation, it’s less convenient and not designed for whole-home or long-term backup.
Severe weather is something that is unavoidable. It could be something as common as a thunderstorm taking out the power lines, or it could be something much more damaging. No matter what happens, be prepared for the next power outage with a new generator.
