There’s nothing worse than dealing with a power outage during or in the aftermath of a storm. With some form of backup power, you can at least have some of the necessities of life while you get everything back in order. There’s no need to wait until storm season to get prepared. The expert electrical contractors at E-Con Electric, Inc in Wisconsin Rapids, WI, share why now is the best time for a generator installation.

Don’t Get Left in the Dark—Get a Generator Installation

More Time for Thorough Planning

When you wait until a dire situation arises, you are likely to rush and purchase something that may not meet your needs. Starting now will allow you to fully assess your power requirements. Do you want enough power to sustain only the household essentials or whole house power? Decide what size you need based on the square footage of your home. Having this information on hand will ensure you get the best equipment for your situation.

More Options

When storm season hits, generators become scarce, leaving you and your family in the dark. Anything left will likely be insufficient to power your home and probably won’t have any extra features. Getting a head start on generator installation opens you up to a better selection when it comes to size, features, and brands.

Better Pricing

You won’t receive any price break on a generator you find during storm season. Demand will be high and supply will be limited, ultimately driving up the price. You'll get a lower price if you start looking early. You may even be able to negotiate a deal on last year’s models as dealers are looking to get rid of older generators to make room for new ones.

Waiting until storm season to get backup power could leave you in the dark. Start now, and you’ll find the quality generator that meets all your needs at an affordable price.
