Last Spring, right as the weather warmed up, my buddy and I got hit by a sizable storm; The increase in temperature caused rapid snowmelt.
There were also torrential downpours plus high winds that knocked down branches plus took out power lines.
There was widespread flooding, plus my buddy and I were separate from electricity for four afternoons, but with no power, the sump pump failed to start up plus our basement filled with water, but my associate and I couldn’t take a shower, flush the toilet or do laundry. My associate and I couldn’t run the root coors maker, microwave or dishwasher, and food in the refrigerator plus freezer spoiled, Going separate from air conditioner was absolutely unpleasant. The house quickly became overheated plus uncomfortable, but it was impossible to get a superb evening’s sleep… Because of the rain, my buddy and I couldn’t even open the windows. I had problems with mold plus mildew growth. While no air conditioning system was annoying, it wasn’t as problematic as a power outage in the winter season would be. When the temperature drops below frigid, there’s the risk of the water pipes frigid. My associate and I could be forced to brave icy roads plus snowy conditions to stay at a hotel. There’s the potential of safety risks plus major disfigurement. I decided to invest into a permanently standby generator… Although a generator is a sizable investment, I wanted peace of mind. If the electricity goes out, the generator will automatically start up within minutes plus power all of our appliances plus systems, including the sump pump, heating system plus air conditioning system. I don’t even need to be on the premises, plus because the generator runs on natural gas, it will operate for as long as necessary.
