Weather the Storm with Confidence: Built for Lake Michigan Outages
Our proximity to Lake Michigan puts us at greater risk for the storms that take power down. Cold air moving across warmer lake water drives lake effect snow, high winds, enhanced thunderstorms, shoreline flooding, and ice storms that load up power lines.
Every one of those hazards has the same result: an outage. A standby generator from ENS Electric keeps your lights, heat, and appliances running until utility power is restored.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about residential standby generator installation and service in West Michigan.
What does a whole-home standby generator do?
A standby generator automatically provides your home with power when the grid goes out. It sits outside your home, connected to your natural gas or propane line and to your electrical panel through an automatic transfer switch. When the grid drops, the generator senses the outage, starts within seconds, and the transfer switch routes power from the generator to your home. When utility power returns, the system switches back and shuts the generator off on its own. You do not have to be home, and you do not have to do anything for immediate backup power.
What size generator should I choose for my home?
Sizing depends on what you want backed up. A partial system covers essentials like the refrigerator, sump pump, and some lighting, while a whole-home generator runs everything including HVAC, water heater, well pump, and appliances. We carry the 24kW Generac with PWRView Automatic Transfer Switch for larger homes with numerous appliances. Our technicians run a load calculation during the site visit, so the generator we recommend fits your home’s actual usage and needs.
How loud is a whole-home generator?
Generac recommends annual maintenance to keep your warranty valid and your system reliable. Annual service includes an oil and filter change, a spark plug check, a battery test, and a full operational test. We offer service plans that handle this automatically so you do not have to track it.
Is a whole-home generator loud?
Modern standby generators run at roughly the volume of a window air conditioner or a normal conversation when measured from a typical setback distance. They are noticeably quieter than portable units. There are quiet-running models available for dense residential homes, and we can recommend one based on your property and how close the unit sits to your house or your neighbors.
What’s the difference between a portable and a standby generator?
A portable generator is a wheeled gas unit you start by hand and connect to specific appliances with cords. It costs less upfront but powers less, needs refueling, and has to be set up every time. It also carries real risks of carbon monoxide poisoning, shock, and backfeed risks that the Department of Energy warns about. A standby generator is permanently installed outside, runs on natural gas or propane with no refueling, starts automatically, and powers your home through a hardwired transfer switch. For West Michigan storm coverage, we recommend standby.
What generator brand do you install?
We install and service Generac residential standby generators as a Generac-authorized dealer, which gives us factory product training and parts access. We recommend the right model based on your home, your priorities, and what is available.
