Generators

Generators, Residential, Commercial, Portable

Generators are a versatile tool that many people sadly overlook. The vast majority of generator purchases are made in advance of severe storms — your average customer only plans to use it for this specific, one-time purpose, often returning it afterwards if able. While this is an all-around good idea if you have the technical expertise to set it up, it is only a temporary salve to the issue of losing power unpredictably. To truly have the peace of mind that comes from being confident in your comfort at home or at work, you need to invest in a quality generator that will keep your lights on, rain or shine, for years to come.

There are many reasons to buy a generator, which greatly vary depending on your home or business size, the energy you use, and other preferences. These reasons range from simple to complex — someone who loves to cook might invest in a generator to ensure that their wide variety of refrigerated and frozen foods are kept safe during an outage, while parents might make use of one to ensure that their children can be kept calm and entertained during powerful storms. Others, such as business owners, will use generators to keep all the important aspects of their company up and running. Whatever the case, Lavoie stocks generators for every conceivable residential or commercial need.

The type of generator you ultimately choose depends on the purpose it is used for. Typical generators run on propane, natural gas, or gasoline, while some run instead on energy stored in batteries. Generators running on fossil fuels are versatile and relatively cheap for their power output, but can be noisy and polluting. Electric generators and power banks are cleaner and more portable, but aren’t as heavy-duty as the fuel-burning types.

Home standby generators are permanent installations that run on fossil fuels and automatically activate upon a power outage, ensuring your home or business continues to receive electricity for as long as your fuel supplies last. These require little to no manual operation and are placed outside, similar to HVAC systems. Portable generators are scaled down versions of home-standby generators, and are able to be stored, moved, and set up based on your needs. Inverter generators can be moved around as well, and adjust their output levels to keep noise levels reasonable and non-intrusive.

Finally, electric generators or power banks are the only power solution that can be safely used indoors — they store power in batteries for use when needed, and use no fuel. These are perfect for apartment dwellers, or those who only need a small amount of power during an outage. Whatever your need or preference, Lavoie stocks a wide variety of Generac generators that can accommodate your residential or commercial property!
