About Us

Why stand by Generator

Generators use an automatic transfer switch to monitor your utility power. When it goes out, the automatic transfer switch turns on your generator, whether you are there or not, and then it automatically shuts it off when power is restored. Unlike portable generators, stand-by generators operate automatically with no human intervention. There is no generator to move. There are no power cords to connect. Sometimes there are no fuel tanks to fill.

Choosing the Right Standby Generator

Contrary to common misconceptions, standby generators offer customizable power options. Whether aiming to power an entire property or select critical circuits, homeowners and businesses can tailor their generator selections based on specific needs. Calculating wattage requirements for essential appliances ensures effective power distribution during outages, prioritizing high-demand devices like air conditioners, heat pumps, or well pumps.

In a world where unexpected outages are becoming increasingly common, standby power is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. Smart homeowners and business owners are turning to Harris Mechanical Limited, for peace of mind in the face of unpredictable events.
