Generator Installation Services in Apex, NC
North Carolina weather is unpredictable - heavy thunderstorms in the summer, ice storms in the winter, and throw in the occasional hurricane and any of these events can knock out power for days.

We will make sure your electricity is prepared to run smoothly so you never have to go without air conditioning, medical equipment, or even entertainment.
How Home Generators Work
Portable generators are noisy and only designed to run a few items like a fan or a coffee pot, whereas a home generator connects into your entire home's electrical system, powering your air conditioner, furnace, and breaker box.
Home generators are powered by a large, rechargeable battery and fueled by liquid propane or natural gas, so it is ready as soon as the power goes out. While some have to be manually switched on when the power goes out, others will automatically power up when your main electricity goes out.
