Standby VS Portable Generators

You might think a portable generator is faster, less expensive and easier than a permanent stand by generator. Let’s take a look at the facts.

Standby Generators

Standby generators are permanently installed generators that automatically switch on when your power goes out. You do not need to be home in order to turn on a standby generator. A transfer switch automatically monitors your home’s power and will transfer your home’s electrical load to your standby generator if the power goes out. A standby generator is installed outside of your home, much like a central air conditioning unit, and effortlessly runs on your home’s natural gas line.

  • Powers your entire home
  • Effortless, automatic operation
  • Long-lasting backup power
  • Increases your home’s value
Portable Generators

Portable generators use a gas-powered engine to power your home. This engine works by turning an alternator to generate electrical power. Each portable generator has power outlets allowing you to plug in extension cords, electric-powered tools, or appliances into it. In general, the more powerful the generator, the more outlet combinations available and the more appliances you can run at a time. Because portable generators are powered by a gas engine, they should always remain in a well-ventilated outdoor space for safety reasons.

  • Short-term backup power solution
  • Must be turned on manually
  • Limited power capability
  • Requires gas on hand to operate

Talk to One of Our Contractor Specialists

“Cannondale came out to fix my father’s generator and they did an amazing job for a great price! Another contractor didn’t even want to fix the generator and they told my dad it would cost $10,000 to replace it. Cannondale came out, replaced a few switches and got the generator back up and running for $700. Amazing service, fast response, I highly recommend them to anybody for the generator servicing needs.”

“Cannondale provided great service on our annual maintenance visit. The technician was quick and left the area neat. He told me what service he performed and I’m confident that we will be ready for the next power outage. I appreciate that the main office provides good communication in advance of service visits.”

Made installation of our generator extremely easy. Took care of all permitting with the town and made the process very simple. After a major power outage, they sent their service team in a snowstorm to service the generator and ensure it would keep us going throughout the snowstorm. Excellent service. Very pleased with this company.
