Severe weather and unexpected power outages can disrupt your life, leaving your home without essential comforts and safety systems. A reliable backup power source is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity.

With a propane standby generator, your home remains powered, safe and comfortable, no matter what’s happening outside.

Choosing the right home generator is a significant decision. At Allied Propane, we make the process simple and stress-free. Our CETP (Certified Employee Training Program)-certified technicians have the expertise to ensure a safe and professional installation.

Here’s what you can expect when you work with us:

  • Ongoing service: We don’t just install your generator; we also provide maintenance and service to keep it running reliably for years to come.

Why choose a standby propane generator?

When the power goes out, standby propane generators automatically kick in, restoring electricity to your house within seconds. Unlike portable generators that require manual setup and refueling in potentially hazardous conditions, a standby unit offers a seamless and safe transition to backup power. You don’t even need to be home for your generator to turn on!

Key benefits include:

  • Automatic operation: No need to go outside in a storm to start it up. The system detects an outage and turns on automatically.
  • Whole-house power: A correctly sized home generator can power everything from your lights and refrigerator to your HVAC system and medical equipment.
  • Reliability: Propane is stored on-site in a dedicated tank, giving you a long-lasting fuel supply independent of the local utility grid.
  • Safety: Standby generators are professionally installed and operate in a fixed location, eliminating the risks of carbon monoxide poisoning associated with portable units used too close to the home.

Propane vs. portable generators

While portable generators are less expensive up front, they come with significant drawbacks. They have limited power output, require frequent refueling and are very noisy. More important, if not operated correctly they pose serious safety risks, including fire hazards and carbon monoxide exposure. A professionally installed propane standby generator eliminates these concerns, providing safe and reliable automatic power.

Propane vs. gasoline and diesel

Gasoline and diesel fuels degrade over time, which can clog fuel lines and prevent your generator from starting when you need it. Storing large quantities of these fuels can also be a safety hazard. Propane, on the other hand, can be stored indefinitely without deteriorating, making it a more dependable fuel source for a backup power system.

Propane is also a cleaner-burning fuel, making it a more environmentally friendly choice.

Don’t wait for the next power outage to think about backup power. A propane standby generator provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing your family will be safe and comfortable, no matter the weather.
