Our Services

We handle all aspects of generator care to keep your system ready and reliable.

Routine Maintenance

Scheduled maintenance prevents breakdowns and extends your generator's lifespan. We follow manufacturer specs for oil, filters, coolant, and spark plugs.

Seattle's damp climate requires vigilance against corrosion. Our team inspects connections and battery terminals during each visit to catch problems early.

Load Testing

Load testing under realistic conditions verifies your generator will deliver full power during an outage. We measure voltage, frequency, and load capacity to spot declining performance.

Fuel System Service

Fuel quality degrades over time, especially in seasonal climates. We drain, test, and replace fuel; clean fuel filters; and add stabilizer to prevent gum buildup.

For propane systems, we inspect regulators and lines for leaks or corrosion common in Seattle's marine environment.

Transfer Switch Checks

Your transfer switch is the bridge between utility and generator power. We test mechanical operation, check contacts, and verify seamless switching so no gap occurs when power fails.

Seasonal Preparation

Fall and winter storms mean higher outage risk in the Seattle area. We prep your generator before storm season: full inspection, fuel top-off, battery load test, and documentation so you're covered.

After spring storms pass, we verify no weather-related damage occurred and schedule summer maintenance to avoid gaps.

Why It Matters

A neglected generator fails when you need it most. Maintenance prevents that nightmare.

Avoid Outage Surprises

Power outages hit Seattle without warning—ice storms, fallen trees, equipment failures. You don't want to discover your backup won't start during the crisis.

Regular maintenance means your generator is ready the moment it's needed.

We catch worn parts, fuel quality issues, and electrical problems before they strand you without power.

Protect Your Investment

Whole-home and standby generators cost thousands of dollars. Skipping maintenance leads to early failure and expensive repairs.

Small, regular service costs far less than replacing a failed unit.

Maintenance logs also document proper care, which supports warranty claims if issues arise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about generator maintenance in Seattle.

How often should my generator be serviced?

Most standby generators need annual service; portable or infrequently used units may need service every two years. We'll create a schedule based on your model and usage.

What does generator maintenance include?

Our maintenance covers oil and filter changes, spark plug inspection, fuel system cleaning, battery load testing, transfer switch verification, and a full system load test to ensure readiness.

Why is fuel maintenance so important for Seattle generators?

Seattle's cool, damp climate causes fuel to degrade and condensation to form in tanks over time. Stale fuel clogs injectors and lines, so we drain, test, and stabilize your fuel tank regularly.

Can you service both natural gas and propane generators?

Yes. We maintain natural gas, propane, and diesel generators. Different fuel types require different inspection approaches, and we're equipped for all three.

What happens if my generator fails during a service visit?

We address problems on the spot when possible. For major issues, we diagnose the cause, explain your repair options, and schedule follow-up service to restore full operation.

Do you offer emergency generator repair?

Yes, we respond to emergency repair calls when generators fail unexpectedly. Call to schedule urgent service and get your backup power restored quickly.

What Happens During Load Testing?

Load testing simulates real-world power demand by running circuits through your generator while we measure performance. We check voltage regulation, frequency stability, and amperage output to verify the unit delivers the power you need.

  1. We connect test equipment and set load levels progressively higher
  2. Voltage and frequency readings confirm stability under load
  3. Transfer switch operation is tested to ensure seamless utility-to-generator switching
  4. We document all results so you have proof your system is ready

Load testing catches problems before an actual outage exposes them.
