An idle generator still needs attention. Guardian provides generator maintenance, inspections and diagnostic work, with the visit planned around the model, condition and service history.
On this page: Project details · Common questions
Choose the loads you need to support
Review the generator or transfer equipment and identify which circuits need backup power. Existing-system visits start with the reported fault or maintenance scope.
Plan transfer and isolation
Check compatibility between the generator, service equipment and transfer arrangement. Define utility coordination, fuel work and other trade responsibilities before scheduling.
Confirm scope, permits and scheduling
We identify permit and inspection requirements for the property jurisdiction. Utility coordination is included when the work affects its equipment or supply. You receive the proposed scope before approving the work.
Complete the work and check operation
We complete the agreed electrical work, test the relevant installation and explain operation, findings and any follow-up. Required official inspections are a separate part of completion.
Send the generator’s make and model, approximate running hours and last service record. Maintenance intervals and parts vary by equipment and use; the manufacturer’s instructions should guide the work. For a Generac unit, the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule guidance explains why model-specific information matters.
Depending on the equipment and agreed scope, work may include inspections, battery testing or replacement, oil and filter service, spark plugs, electrical connections and operational checks. We identify due maintenance separately from repairs discovered during the visit. Tell us about prolonged outage use, missed maintenance or an approaching project deadline when requesting service.
A unit that will not start, starts and stops, displays an alarm or runs without transferring power needs a description of the symptoms. Note the alarm text and what happened before the issue began, without opening electrical compartments or bypassing protection. Generator diagnostics and transfer-switch troubleshooting may involve different parts of the system; the model information helps us plan the visit.
Keep equipment accessible and share gate, property-manager or occupied-business requirements in advance. If equipment supports a business function, explain the consequence of a shutdown and any acceptable test window. We discuss inspection and testing arrangements with you. Routine maintenance improves readiness but does not promise uninterrupted operation or eliminate the possibility of a fault.
Yes. Time-based service items still matter, including checks of the starting battery and equipment condition. The correct intervals come from the model’s manual and operating history. Heavy outage use can also bring hour-based service due sooner.
It confirms only what that exercise cycle actually tests. Some exercise arrangements do not transfer the building load. Transfer operation and performance with the planned loads must be evaluated separately for the specific system.
Guardian’s service scope includes Generac systems. We confirm the exact model, parts and required work first. Manufacturer warranty repairs or work requiring a particular authorization must be confirmed separately; routine service does not imply factory-authorized warranty status.
Only when the proposal specifically includes it. Maintenance items, diagnostic work and corrective repairs are separated so you know what is authorized. A newly discovered fault is explained before additional work proceeds.
Guardian offers free quotes for planned projects. A fault-finding visit or service call can involve a diagnostic charge, explained before booking. Access, equipment requirements and the work identified determine the proposed repair or installation scope.
Share the property address, the problem or project you have in mind, and equipment details when available. Photos of accessible equipment and the work area can help us plan the next step. Do not remove electrical covers or expose wiring to take photographs.
