Installing a 10kW generator involves careful planning and execution to ensure reliable backup power for your home. At Oregon Generators, we follow a process that covers everything from the initial estimate to post-installation checks. This guide will walk you through each step, highlighting our commitment to delivering a seamless installation experience.
Step 1: Initial Assessment and Estimate
The first step in our installation process involves a detailed assessment of your current energy setup. This includes a load test performed by Northwest Natural to evaluate your gas meter’s capacity. Depending on the outcome, upgrades may be necessary ranging from a simple meter upgrade to more extensive gas line enhancements. This ensures your system is tailored to handle the specific demands of a 10kW generator without any hitches.
Step 2: Installation of Your 10kW Generator
Once your site is ready, our Generac and Kohler certified technicians will install the essential components of your backup power system. This includes the generator itself, necessary gas piping, electrical connections, and the automatic transfer switch. Each element is installed with precision and care to ensure optimal performance and compliance with all safety standards.
Step 3: Thorough Inspection and Approval
After installation, our work undergoes rigorous inspections to ensure everything is up to code. A mechanical inspector will review the gas line installations, while an electrical inspector will check the connections at your main electrical panel. These inspections are crucial for ensuring the safety and reliability of your new generator system.
Step 4: Final Connection and Testing
Following a successful inspection, your generator is connected and ready for operation. We perform a series of tests to confirm everything is working correctly, ensuring your generator will perform flawlessly when you need it most.
Post-Installation Support
Oregon Generators’ relationship with our clients doesn’t end after installation. We provide comprehensive post-installation support to help you maintain your generator in peak condition, including routine maintenance and any necessary repairs.
