Why Choose Domestic Generators

Choosing a domestic generator is essential for ensuring your home remains powered during unexpected outages, particularly in areas prone to frequent power interruptions. Reliable backup power is crucial for maintaining the operation of essential household appliances and systems, such as refrigeration, heating, and security systems. Domestic generators, with their power range of 6-66 kVA, are specifically designed to provide sufficient energy to keep these critical functions running smoothly, offering peace of mind and protecting your home from the disruptions caused by power loss.

Domestic generators offer a range of key features designed to meet diverse household power needs. With a power range of 6-66 kVA, these generators can accommodate everything from small homes to larger properties, ensuring that all essential systems remain operational during outages. The Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) allows the generator to automatically start and provide power as soon as the main supply fails, ensuring uninterrupted service. Built with durable construction, these generators promise longevity and reliable performance over time. Noise reduction technology is incorporated to minimise operational noise, making them suitable for residential environments. Additionally, integrated safety features, such as overload protection and low-oil shutdown, enhance overall safety and protect both the generator and your home.

Domestic Generators FAQs

What size generator will run a house?

The size of the generator needed depends on the power requirements of your home. Generally, a generator with a power range of 6-66 kVA is suitable for most residential needs, covering everything from essential appliances to larger homes.

How do I determine the right kVA size for my home?

To determine the right kVA size, calculate the total wattage of the appliances and systems you need to power. Add up their wattages and factor in any additional load for future needs or contingencies. Consult a professional if unsure about the calculations.

Are domestic generators noisy?

Modern domestic generators are designed with noise reduction technology, which minimises operational noise. While they are quieter than older models, they still produce some noise, so it’s important to choose one with a noise level suitable for your residential area.

What kind of maintenance do domestic generators require?

Domestic generators generally require routine maintenance such as checking and changing the oil, replacing filters, inspecting the fuel system, and running the generator periodically to ensure it's in good working condition. Regular maintenance helps ensure reliability and longevity.

Can a domestic generator power my entire house?

A domestic generator can power your entire house if it is appropriately sized for your home's power needs. Generators in the 6-66 kVA range can handle varying levels of power requirements, from essential appliances to comprehensive whole-house coverage.

How do you hook up a generator to your house?

Connecting a generator to your house typically involves using a transfer switch, which safely disconnects your home from the utility power and connects it to the generator. This setup ensures a safe and smooth transition between power sources. It’s recommended to have a licensed electrician handle the installation.
