Why Choose a Portable Generator?
Portable generators offer flexibility and mobility, making them a popular choice for homeowners, small business owners, and outdoor enthusiasts. Here’s why a portable generator might be the best solution for your power needs:
- Mobility: Unlike whole-house standby generators, portable generators are easy to transport. Whether you need power during a home emergency or want to power your tools at a remote job site, a portable generator offers the flexibility to move it where it’s needed most.
- Affordability: Portable generators are generally more affordable than standby units. They provide a cost-effective solution for individuals and businesses who need temporary power without the higher investment associated with permanent generator systems.
- Versatility: Portable generators can power a variety of devices, from household appliances to outdoor equipment. Many models are equipped with multiple outlets, allowing you to plug in different appliances simultaneously.
- Emergency Backup Power: In the event of a power outage, a portable generator can supply temporary power to your essential appliances and devices, such as refrigerators, HVAC systems, lights, and more. This helps you avoid the inconvenience and potential damage caused by prolonged power outages.

Professional Installation and Setup
While portable generators are designed for easy transport, proper setup and installation are still crucial to ensure safe operation. At Elite Air & Heat, our skilled technicians will help you choose the right generator for your needs and provide professional installation to ensure everything is working correctly.
- Proper Sizing: One of the most important aspects of installing a portable generator is choosing the correct size. Our team will assess your power needs and recommend a generator with the right wattage to keep your essential appliances and devices running during an outage.

- Transfer Switch Installation: If you plan to connect your portable generator to your home’s electrical system, we recommend installing a transfer switch. This ensures that power is safely transferred from the generator to your home without the risk of backfeeding, which can be dangerous to both your family and utility workers.

Portable Generator Safety
Operating a portable generator comes with safety considerations. At Elite Air & Heat, we prioritize the safety of our customers, ensuring that you’re well-informed about the proper use and care of your generator.
