Tips for renting or installing an electrical generator
How do you rent or have an electrical generator installed? Who do you contact? When a power outage occurs, it can be important to have a secondary source of power to operate lighting, heaters and other appliances. In a business or store, you may need it for certain machinery. This is where a power generator comes in. It can generate electricity from another energy source such as gas or oil.
Generator types
Portable and emergency generators are available. They can run on oil, propane or gas.
