Recent Jacksonville feedback
Ceiling fan on a vaulted ceiling nobody else wanted to touch. Right downrod, sloped adapter, no wobble at all.
Restaurant, so I cannot close. They did the kitchen circuits between 11pm and 6am over three nights and we opened on time every day.
Panel was original to the house and full. They ran the load calculation, told me exactly what the 200 amp upgrade would cost, and the number on the invoice matched the quote. Power was back on the same afternoon.
Generator Installation in Jacksonville: questions
What size generator do I need for my Jacksonville home?
It depends on whether you want the whole house or just the essentials. In Jacksonville, central air is usually the deciding load. We measure the real demand and size the unit to it rather than selling you the biggest box on the shelf.
Does a standby generator start automatically during a Jacksonville outage?
Yes, with an automatic transfer switch. The unit senses the loss of utility power, starts, and takes over in seconds, then switches back and shuts down once the grid returns. You do not need to be home.
Natural gas or propane for a standby generator?
Natural gas is simpler where the street has service, because there is no tank to refill. Propane is the answer for most Jacksonville properties without a gas main. We coordinate the gas work either way.
Do generators need servicing?
They do. A standby unit exercises itself weekly and needs oil, filters and a battery check on a schedule. We set up the exercise routine and can handle the annual visit.
