Few things can stop an entire household in its tracks quite like a power outage. But stronger storms packing higher winds are making blackouts and brownouts more common than ever. Madison NJ’s above-ground power lines are susceptible to getting knocked out for blocks around every time a tree limb falls, a pole topples, or a transformer blows.
The best way to guard against power failures in your home is to install an automatic standby generator outside your home, installed and serviced by Stashluk. With an auxiliary generator that’s powered by natural gas at the ready, your home can be powered up within seconds of the power going out. A generator affords you and your family the ultimate convenience so that your refrigerated foods don’t spoil, computers and electronics can work without a hitch, and all of your lights and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are good to go.
Not all generators are sized the same. In fact, you have options as to how much power you want restored to your home once the power goes out. Stashluk can help you choose the right sized generator for your home based on the size of your home and your family’s needs.
For example, whole-house generators will do exactly that – power your entire house and everything in it from the basement to the attic. But maybe you’d like to keep costs down and go another route. There are generators that are sized to provide just enough power to provide only partial power to your home. You might only desire enough power to run appliances and some lights, or for work and school you might want to keep your computers, mobile devices, and critical comfort systems on line all the time, in any combination possible.
Whichever amount of power you decide you need for your home, Stashluk can make the calculations that will assure your convenience at all times.

What do we mean by a smarter generator? Like just about everything else these days, automatic standby generators are computer operated and do all of the hard work for you. Many units have a remote monitor so you can check the usage and performance of your generator from your smart phone. Your usage data is tracked so you know when your generator kicks on as well as when it turns off. In the event you’re away when the power fails, notifications like these can provide additional peace of mind.
Furthermore, when the auxiliary power unit needs service or maintenance, it can “call” Stashluk automatically so we can send a technician to your home and check the status of the generator. If you happen to have a vacation home and would like to ensure that power is always at the ready, most standby generators can also run on propane if natural gas supplies are not available locally.
At Stashluk, we know how to calculate your auxiliary power needs and suggest the right unit for your home and family. Give us a call at 908-277-6200 and we’ll help you choose the best automatic standby generator for your needs and budget.
