Keeping The Lights On With Chapman’s

When it comes to choosing the right generator for your home, we offer a variety of options. With a range of sizes and capacities to choose from, we make sure you get the right generator for your home’s energy demands.

For smaller homes or low-power needs, portable generators provide an affordable solution, offering flexibility and ease of use. These units are great for powering essential appliances during a short-term outage, but they require manual setup each time. On the other hand, whole-home generators provide continuous power for your entire home, automatically kicking in when the grid goes down. These systems are ideal for families who want the peace of mind that comes with uninterrupted power and don’t want the hassle of constantly starting and stopping.

What size generator do I need for my home?
The size of the generator you need depends on the total wattage of the appliances and systems you want to power during an outage. There are many different options, each with different power outputs and maximum capacities. Our technicians can assess your needs and recommend the right size to ensure your home stays powered when the lights go out.
How long does a generator last?
The lifespan of a generator depends on factors like usage, maintenance, and the type of generator. On average, a well-maintained standby generator can last 10,000 to 30,000 hours of operation or 15 to 20 years.
Do I need professional installation for my generator?
Yes, we highly recommend professional installation to ensure that your generator is safely connected to your home’s electrical system and complies with local codes and regulations.
How often should I maintain my generator?
Routine maintenance should be performed at least once a year, or as recommended by the manufacturer. This includes oil changes, filter checks, battery maintenance, and testing the system to make sure it’s ready for use.
Can a generator power my whole house?
Yes, but it depends on the type of generator you have. Whole-house generators are designed to automatically provide backup power to your entire home, including essential systems like HVAC, lights, appliances, and more. Portable generators can give power to the most important appliances, but typically they cannot power everything in your home at the same time.

How long can a generator run continuously?
Most generators can run for 8 to 12 hours on a full tank of gas or propane, but this can vary based on the size and type of generator. Larger standby generators can run longer, as they are connected to a permanent fuel source.
What happens if my generator runs out of fuel?
If your generator runs out of fuel, it will automatically shut off. It’s important to regularly check fuel levels and refuel as needed to keep your generator running smoothly, but do not attempt to add fuel to a hot unit! Wait for the unit to cool before adding propane or gasoline to avoid injury.
Can I use my generator inside my home?
No, generators should never be used indoors due to the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Always place your generator in a well-ventilated outdoor area, away from windows, doors, and exterior walls. Most generators require 3-5 ft clearance. Always consult the manual and manufacturer’s instructions for specifics.
What type of fuel does a generator use?
Generators can run on a variety of fuels, including gasoline, propane, and natural gas. We offer options for each fuel type, depending on what’s most convenient and available for your home.
Will my generator turn on automatically during a power outage?
If you have a whole-home generator or a standby generator, then yes. Whole-house generators are equipped with an automatic transfer switch (ATS) that detects a power outage and automatically activates the generator to restore power to your home without any manual intervention. Portable generators and other types of generators need to be turned on manually when the power goes out.
