Having Milk install your Generac generators offers a range of advantages, especially given the complexities of integrating such systems with your home’s electrical and potentially solar setup. Here’s a breakdown of the key benefits

A Generac generator needs to be placed in a location that meets ventilation and spacing requirements to prevent overheating and exhaust buildup.

Milk knows how to identify safe installation locations that minimize noise and optimize performance.

Milk can assess your home’s power requirements and help select a generator with the correct wattage capacity, ensuring it meets your needs without overloading or underutilizing it.

Properly sizing a Generac generator is essential for efficiently handling critical systems like HVAC, refrigeration, and lights without causing power fluctuations.

Increased Property Value: Having professionally installed electrical systems, especially if noted in home inspection reports, can improve your home’s resale value and attractiveness to buyers.

Reduced Liability: Proper installation reduces your liability if an electrical issue arises, protecting your family, guests, and property

It's On Automatic

A Generac Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is a critical component of a standby generator system, designed to automatically transfer the electrical load from the utility power to the generator in the event of a power outage. When installed alongside a Generac standby generator

Are You Ready For An Upgrade

The main service panel (also called the breaker panel, electrical panel, or load center) is the central hub that distributes electrical power throughout a home. It connects directly to the utility service line and allows for the control and protection of the electrical circuits in the home.

FAQ's

Here are some frequently asked questions to think about. If you have any questions, give us a call. Milk is here to help.

An automatic transfer switch (ATS) detects power loss and automatically switches the electrical load to the generator when an outage occurs. Once utility power is restored, the ATS reconnects the load to the main grid and shuts off the generator. This seamless process requires no manual intervention

Some electronics require stable power to avoid damage. Inverter generators or generators with built-in voltage regulation provide “clean” power, making them safer for sensitive electronics like computers, TVs, and medical devices.

A permanently installed standby generator can increase home resale value, as it offers potential buyers reliable power backup. In areas prone to frequent power outages, it may be seen as a valuable feature, making your home more appealing on the market.
