SELECTING A SYSTEM

All homes rely on electricity to operate different systems that you depend on for health, safety and comfort. Losing lights is one thing, but homeowners with a well and septic system know that losing the ability to have water is a very different aspect of living. Water wells need power to pump water to sinks, showers and more importantly toilets. Septic systems are equipped with timers and alarms that must be kept operable to pump sanitation. Some gas hot water heaters require a power vent to disperse harmful carbon monoxide emissions and will not operate without it.

Many power outages occur during spring and summer thunderstorms, which means rain, and sometimes lots of it. If the power is out, no sump pump could mean a flooded basement. On the other hand, if the outage occurs during a winter snow storm, the gas furnace will not work without the electric fan and that means no heat to you or your network of water piping.

Several families have elderly family members living at home. Some of those are in need of consistent electrical power for their medical well being. Oxygen machines, air purifiers/cleaners, and air conditioning are all dependent on clean, stable electrical power to operate properly.
