Signs You May Need A Replacement Generator
In the life of every appliance, there comes a time when it needs to be replaced. Generators are no different in this matter. But when is the right time to replace your generator? Here are a few signs to look out for including:
- Your generator is too small: If your generator can’t meet your power demands due to increased usage or upgraded appliances, it’s time to replace.
- Poor energy efficiency: If you notice your generator using more energy than it typically does, this means it’s losing its energy efficiency and it’s time for it to be replaced.
- Repair costs: If you’re experiencing recurring issues, long down times, or high repair costs, this suggests that replacing your generator may be more economical.
- Regulatory compliance: As environmental and noise regulations change, so must generators. Newer models meet current regulations with improved efficiency which help to reduce your running costs.
