Like any other important system in your home, your whole-house generator requires regular maintenance and care to ensure it’s always ready. Just as you maintain your heating or cooling system to keep it running efficiently, your generator needs periodic checks and repairs to provide reliable power during an outage.

In Shelby Township, natural phenomena like heavy snowstorms, ice storms, and thunderstorms can lead to unexpected power outages. While these events may not happen every day, they can cause long-lasting disruptions when they do. Winter ice and snow can bring down trees and power lines, while strong winds from storms or tornadoes interrupt power supply.
That’s why your whole-house generator must be kept functioning correctly. It ensures that your home remains powered, keeping essential systems like heating, refrigeration, and lighting running when the electricity goes out. However, to rely on your generator during these critical times, it’s important to keep it in peak condition with regular repairs and maintenance.
At Elite Heating and Cooling, we understand the importance of a reliable backup power source. We offer expert repair services to ensure your generator is always ready. Don’t wait for an outage to discover a problem, keep your home safe, warm, and powered year-round.
Your whole-house generator plays a vital role in keeping your home prepared for emergencies. However, like any home system, generators can experience issues over time. Knowing the signs that your generator needs repair can help you address problems early and avoid losing power when you need it most.
If your generator struggles or fails to start, this could be a sign of a mechanical or electrical issue. Problems with the starter motor, battery, or fuel system are common causes. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues, but if starting becomes a challenge, it’s time to schedule a repair.
A generator should run smoothly and quietly. Strange noises such as knocking, sputtering, or grinding often indicate underlying problems, like worn-out components, loose connections, or debris in the system. Addressing these sounds quickly can prevent further damage.
If your generator isn’t providing sufficient power to run your home’s essential appliances or the lights flicker when it’s operating, there might be an issue with the generator’s alternator, fuel delivery, or control panel. Low power output reduces your system’s reliability and efficiency.
Modern generators have control panels that display warning lights or error codes when something isn’t working properly. These indicators are designed to alert you to issues that require immediate attention. Consult your generator’s manual or call a professional to diagnose the problem.
Check your generator periodically for signs of physical damage, such as frayed wires, corroded connections, or leaking fluids. Any visible issues could lead to performance problems and should be addressed by a technician as soon as possible.
These simple steps can help restore the operation of your heater while waiting for a technician:
Ensure the generator has enough fuel. Low or empty fuel is a common cause of a generator stopping, and it's easy to check and top off.
Check for tripped circuit breakers in the generator's control panel. Resetting the breakers can resolve a minor issue
Check the generator's battery to ensure it's charged. If the battery is low or dead, you can jump-start or replace it temporarily.

It’s not recommended to attempt generator repairs on your own. Generators are complex systems that require specialized knowledge. Hiring a licensed professional ensures the repair is done safely and correctly.
Generators may fail due to issues like fuel supply problems, battery failure, clogged air filters, or worn-out components. Regular maintenance can help prevent these common issues.
Most manufacturers recommend servicing your generator at least once a year, or after every 100-200 hours of use. Regular maintenance helps catch small problems before they turn into major repairs.
Delaying repairs can lead to more extensive damage, higher repair costs, and an unreliable generator when you need it most. Prompt repairs ensure your backup power system remains dependable.
