Is Your Business Prepared for a Power Outage?

It’s incredible how reliant we’ve become on having a power source to tap into. While a power outage can be an inconvenience when it happens at home, it can effectively force a business to close its doors, albeit for the remainder of the day. If only there was a solution to keep the extreme weather at bay or predict it, right? Luckily, you may not need to become a psychic, as there is a much simpler alternative…

Have you considered installing a backup generator?

Industry experts like Hugh O’Kane Electric always stress the importance of installing a backup generator. That way, you won’t need to be at the mercy of unpredictable weather or other factors that are impossible to predict in advance. So if your business relies on keeping the lights on or powering the air conditioning to keep the clients comfortable, there will always be a way to resume the day no matter what.

Living in an area with unstable and unpredictable weather calls for adjustments

If your business is located in an area where storms and hurricanes are the norm, Hugh O’Kane advises to install a backup generator as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll never be able to stand on solid ground in regard to keeping your business operational. Just think of losing a customer to your competition who is able to keep the lights on day in and day out due to having a backup generator installed. Even if you only need it to power the air conditioning for example, the productivity of your staff depends on their ability to retain their focus. If you can’t keep the AC running, it’s only a matter of time before they’ll struggle to keep their thoughts together for five minutes straight.

Things to consider before installing a backup generator on your own

Like many other things, installing your own backup generator is always an option. However, this will take much more effort on your part than changing a light bulb. In other words, some plumbing and electrical wiring knowledge will be necessary. There are also the regulatory concerns – is the one you’ll be attempting to install quiet and safe enough? And even if you get it right, can you calculate the right load handling capacity before purchasing one?

Don’t fret if you can’t do it – let an expert assist you

As you can see, installing a backup generation is no walk in the park. But the great news is that there’s no reason to do it all on your own. Industry experts like Hugh Okane will take care of this for you, so you’ll have more time to focus on running your business. All it takes is getting in touch with your local electrical contractor, answering a couple of questions regarding your premises, your business, and your needs. Soon after, the work can begin.

Conclusion

In this day and age, every customer is an important part of your business and keeping it afloat (and so is the productivity of your staff). Installing a backup generator will ensure that it will remain operational no matter what happens on any given day.
