I conducted a comprehensive annual service on a 22KW Generac guardian standby generator. This involved a thorough inspection of all components, including the engine, fuel system, and electrical connections. I cleaned and replaced air and fuel filters, checked and adjusted the oil level, and ensured all moving parts were lubricated. The battery was tested and, if necessary, replaced to ensure optimal performance. I also performed a full system diagnostic to identify any potential issues. Additionally, I completed a firmware update to ensure the generator operates with the latest software enhancements, improving efficiency and reliability. The generator was then tested to confirm it functions correctly and is ready for use in emergency situations.

Residential Generac Generator was inherited with the purchase of my house but pulled offline due to significant renovations.

Ron was so helpful, explained everything that they were doing and why. He also gave me some very helpful recommendations to keep the unit in perfect condition. Extremely happy I waited to find the best group for service.
