Nutech Fire Protection Co. Ltd. Frequently Asked Questions
What is an automatic standby generator?
An automatic standby generator is a back-up electrical system that operates whether you are at
your property or away. It automatically supplies power to essential circuits of your building
within seconds of a utility outage. After utility power returns, the generator shuts itself
off and awaits the next outage. It operates on natural gas or liquid propane and usually is
installed outside at ground level or on the roof.
What will it power?
Generators supply electricity to the electrical panel circuits of your property through an automatic
transfer switch. You can elect to back up selected emergency circuits or your entire facility.
Nutech Fire Protection Co. Ltd. can calculate the amperage of items you want to protect
and match it to the appropriate generator system.
Why should I buy an automatic standby generator instead of a portable generator?
While portable generators do supply power, an automatic standby generator produces a higher quality
of electricity. It operates automatically and runs a weekly self-test to ensure proper response
to an outage. There are no extension cords to plug in and no gas tanks to fill. It operates automatically
so it protects our property even when you're away. When utility power returns, the standby generator
shuts itself off.
What's the difference between air-cooled and liquid-cooled?
Air-cooled units use engines we design and manufacture specifically for our smaller generators.
Volume production helps us to keep cost down, making our air-cooled generators the most affordable
for our customers. They cover essential circuits and back-up power needs in most residential
applications. Liquid-cooled units use automotive engines for increased horsepower. This makes
them ideal for larger requirements such as whole-house power coverage, larger homes and commercial
applications.
Do they have to be maintained?
Just like your car's engine, generators need periodic oil and filter changes. Nutech Fire
Protection Co. Ltd. Works on all generators but installs Guardian Natural Gas units with our
new construction and required upgrades due to warranty, product satisfaction and whisper quiet
technology for service call 1-800-969-5149
