Keep the Lights on With Our Generator Installation Services. We are proud to be a full-service electrical system provider, offering repair, replacement, and installation of both standby and portable generators.

Standby Generators

A standby generator is installed permanently to pack up power systems, and they turn on automatically during a power outage. They are perfect for commercial establishments connected to grid power. A standby generator can be fueled with diesel, natural gas or liquid propane. They can power water heaters, well pumps, furnaces, and lighting circuits. When choosing a standby generator, consider things like your property’s power demands and fuel source.

Portable Generators

Portable generators come with different power configurations that can be used for a variety of applications. They can be useful whenever a power grid breaks down or during natural disasters. They are quick solutions for smaller commercial properties like retail outlets.

Portable generators, however need constant refilling of fuel, and you can use either propane or gasoline. If you want to use this generator to power the entire property, consider installing a transfer switch. This type of generator can also power electrical circuits.

In Florida, we deal with lightning strikes, tropical storms, and other issues that can cause power outages multiple times every year. Unfortunately, there are times when power outages can last for a few days. Installing a generator can be the perfect solution to have backup power. Having a generator in your home means you can keep the A/C on when the power is out, and you can still use all of your kitchen appliances. Reach out to us today to know what generator fits your budget and needs.

Commercial Generator Replacement

Good generators can last a long time, but even the best ones eventually stop being reliable after much use. If your generator has trouble starting, is costing more in fuel, or has inconsistent performance, East-West Electric can replace it with another model that fits your home’s budget and specific needs. Given the fact that generators are vital to your own comfort – and in case of an emergency, your survival – you need a generator that is cost-effective. Every model we offer is the highest-quality generator in the business, and replacing them falls under our services.

Commercial Generator Repair

If you already have a generator in your home, but it’s not working right, we are here to help. The longer your generator is malfunctioning, the higher risk there is of not having power during an outage. Our technicians can perform an inspection of your generator and determine the right solution. We will give you a thorough explanation of what exactly needs repairing and the price before we begin.

Why You Need a Commercial Generator

Every business owner should have a generator.  As a business owner, you never get back the lost revenue during the hours when your building doesn’t have power. Installing a generator is necessary for your business’s daily productivity. With a functioning generator, businesses won’t ever stop when there is a power outage. A standby generator’s installation has a transfer switch that keeps accessories and critical systems running right after an emergency power outage.

In Florida, weather can change from summer to a hurricane warning to a lightning storm, and power can go out at any time. Even a couple of hours without power can cause damage to your business and debilitating consequences, as well as high costs.

When there is a power outage, you should consider its impact on your:

  • Employee productivity
  • Loss of power to computers and workstations
  • HVAC and potential temperature and humidity rise within your office
  • Alarm and security systems
  • Food and food storage
  • Power-heavy businesses such as manufacturing facilities
  • Lights, registers, credit card readers
  • Business loss of production

A properly installed and configured commercial generator system is designed to switch off automatically when power is restored. This makes it a seamless experience for the user, ensuring that the transition from generator power back to grid power is smooth and uninterrupted.

Commercial power generators come in two main types: standby and portable. Standby generators are permanently installed and automatically kick in when power is lost. Portable generators are mobile and can be moved to wherever they’re needed. Both types have their advantages and are selected based on the specific needs of a business.

There are several common potential problems with commercial generators. These include battery failure, low coolant levels, faulty block heaters, and wet stacking. Other issues could be the controls not in “Auto” mode, air in the fuel system, running out of fuel, or a tripped breaker. Regular maintenance and check-ups can prevent these issues and ensure your generator works when you need it most.

Buying and installing a commercial generator has several benefits over renting. Ownership gives you full control over your power supply and eliminates recurring rental costs. It also allows you to tailor the system to your business’s specific needs, providing a reliable power solution that’s always ready when you need it.

Emergency backup commercial generators work by detecting a power outage and automatically starting up to provide power. They run on fuel (either propane or natural gas) and can supply power to your business until the main power supply is restored.

Your business needs a commercial backup generator to ensure continuity of operations during a power outage. A power outage can result in lost revenue, damaged equipment, and loss of critical data. With a backup generator, you can keep your business running smoothly and protect your investment.

East-West Electric provides commercial backup generators to a wide range of businesses. These include those in critical industries that always need power, such as medical and healthcare facilities, telecommunications companies, financial institutions, data centers, emergency services, retail establishments, educational institutions, hospitality businesses, manufacturing plants, and industrial facilities. We’ve worked with them all, and we can work with you too.

The cost of installing a generator can vary depending on the size and type of generator, as well as any necessary electrical work. Contact us for a free project estimate tailored to your specific needs.

We highly recommend against attempting to install a commercial generator.
