Protect Your Home from Power Outages

Plenty of propane appliances can run when we’re experiencing a grid outage, including stoves and gas logs. But other products generally require some electrical power to run effectively. This might include your heating equipment, water heater or dryer.

But with a propane standby generator, you can ensure that these appliances — plus your lights, fridge, home medical equipment, security system and other electronics — stay powered even during an extended outage. The generators we sell connect to a propane tank and to your home. When the grid power goes out, the units switch over automatically to keep your home’s electricity flowing.
