Power outages are a part of life in Ohio — whether during a severe winter storm or a summer thunderstorm. Planning ahead with backup power options will keep your home comfortable and functional, and give you much-needed peace of mind, no matter how bad things get outside.
Natural Gas Generators — The Most Common Choice
Many Capstone homeowners choose natural gas backup power generators thanks to their reliability and efficiency. That being said, the right system size and configuration for you will vary based on how much of the home you want powered during an outage. Carefully consider your power preferences so you can get a generator that can handle the job.
Planning Ahead For Future Generator Installations
Not everyone wants to install a generator right away — and that’s okay! It’s still a good idea to plan ahead for when you will install a generator. Choosing a rough-in during construction will make it easier to add a generator later without causing major disruptions (or requiring major renovations) for your home.
Backup Power Planning Supports Everyday Comfort
From simply keeping the lights on to keeping your heating systems and refrigerator running, having a source of backup power does more than keep you comfortable. For serious outages during times with extreme temperatures, it also ensures your home’s livability and can even keep you safe.
Thoughtfully planned backup power options give you flexibility and peace of mind. Whether you install it now or leave room for a future installation, a backup power source will help your home be ready for real-world situations.
