If you want the convenience, security, and comfort of a diesel generator but don't want to venture out in inclement weather to get it started, you might want to consider getting an emergency standby diesel generator.
These personal power plants supply electricity to the majority of your house, not just to a few selected circuits. The all-weather generators are installed outside like a central air conditioner and are wired through an automatic transfer switch to the main electrical panel.The units run on natural gas, propane, or diesel fuel. Some systems can even be connected to a home's natural gas line, eliminating the need to fill fuel tanks.
When the power goes out, there's a slight delay of 15 to 20 seconds, then the generator automatically kicks on - whether you're home or not - and continues running until power is restored, when it will automatically shut off. If you have critical applications such as life support equipment, computers or similar systems, you can install a UPS (uninterruptible power supply, a battery in a special box), and there will be no interruption of power to these devices while the generator starts up.
These systems are becoming increasingly popular in homes and in rural areas where prolonged power outages are common. To see our extensive line of home standby diesel generators.
