Marion Generator Maintenance

Why Routine Generator Maintenance Matters

A generator is more than just a backup power source—it safeguards against unexpected outages, keeping your home or business running smoothly when the grid fails. But like any hardworking equipment, a generator requires regular maintenance to remain dependable. Skipping routine service can lead to unexpected breakdowns, costly repairs, and even premature failure, leaving you without power during an outage.

By staying on top of generator maintenance, you extend its lifespan and keep it running efficiently, reducing fuel consumption and minimizing wear on vital components. Regular inspections can catch potential problems early, preventing minor issues from turning into significant malfunctions. More importantly, a well-maintained generator operates safely, reducing the risk of electrical hazards or dangerous malfunctions. 

We recommend servicing your generator at least once a year to keep it running smoothly. However, more frequent service may be necessary if your generator is used heavily or operates in harsh conditions. Generators that are constantly running or exposed to extreme weather and environments can experience more wear and tear.
