If your whole-home generator is experiencing one or more of the following symptoms, it is likely in need of professional repair from the pros at Most Valuable Plumber:
The most obvious sign your generator requires repair is if it is not producing electricity. If your generator is failing to power anything in your house, don’t panic – it can likely be repaired without any need to fully replace the unit.
If you find your electronics unable to run properly off your generator i.e. lights flickering, power to appliances or devices going in and out, etc. while using it, there is something wrong with your system.
One of the most common symptoms of a failing generator is delays when starting up. Your generator can still work fine once it finally gets going, but these significant delays are indicative of imminent failure and should be professionally addressed by Most Valuable Plumber as soon as possible.
It is advised to thoroughly visually inspect your whole-home generator from time to time and take notes of issues (frayed wires, corrosion, etc.). If there is noticeable excessive damage, your generator may be in need of service.
Your generator will only produce any kind of a smell in the event that there is something wrong. This can be due to something burning within the unit, a gas or exhaust leak, and other hazards. If your generator is producing any type of odor, call Most Valuable Plumber immediately!
Essentially, any time your generator makes itself noticeable, there is an issue – your whole-home generator should really just sit there until it needs to be used, not making any weird noises or smells or anything for that matter. If there is a mechanical or electrical problem within your system, it will produce odd noises that are a symptom of a problem that will likely need to be repaired.

Yes, generators need maintenance! It’s very important to have the proper maintenance done on your generator by a professional at Most Valuable Plumber at least once a year. Keeping up your generator will ensure that everything is in working order and even extend the lifespan of your system.
On average, generators should last about 20 years. It’s important to note that properly maintaining your generator will make all the difference in how well it performs and how long it lasts. Always have a professional from Most Valuable Plumber perform your yearly generator maintenance.
The simple answer is no. The more detailed answer is no, because it is not only extremely dangerous but also illegal. Plugging your portable generator directly into a standard wall outlet can cause back-feeding into the utility lines that connect to your house, causing serious injury or even death to an unsuspecting utility worker who is working to restore power or downed utility lines. There’s also a risk that by connecting your portable generator to an electrical outlet that you can overload your circuits and cause a fire. Having a licensed professional install a transfer switch is the best way to prevent a disaster. A transfer switch will disconnect your home from the electrical grid while allowing your generator to power your home. Transfer switches come in manual and automatic options are recommended for both portable and standby generators.
If your generator has been properly installed and maintained, it should not overload. But, in the event that it does, the generator’s circuit breaker will trip. To correct this, reset the breaker on your generator. This is only a temporary solution. If your generator is frequently overloading, something is wrong and you will need to have an expert from Most Valuable Plumber investigate the problem. You will want to take care of this right away to avoid worsening the issue.
Automatic standby generators are essentially backup generators. In the event that your main generator fails, the automatic standby will kick in and restore power. Automatic standby generators will operate whether you are home or are away, and run on natural or liquid propane gas. Within seconds of an outage, the standby generator will automatically supply power directly to your home’s electrical circuit breaker box. After utility power returns, the standby generator will then automatically shut itself back off until the next outage. If you are thinking about installing an automatic standby generator, call Most Valuable Plumber to assess your home and provide you with more information and even a free price estimate.
There isn’t necessarily one single type of fuel that is best, as they all have pretty major advantages and disadvantages. Gasoline is easily accessible, but also highly flammable, making it dangerous to keep large amounts on hand (it will also spoil if unused after a relatively short amount of time). Propane has a much longer shelf life, but propane tanks are also very large and obtrusive. Lastly, Diesel is the least flammable of the three, but will spoil after about two years if unused (still longer than gasoline).
