Air Cooled Generators
A Generator For Your Home
A generator is the best way to ensure your home is powered, no matter what the weather conditions are like outside. In our area of the country, particularly Southwest Virginia and Northeastern Tennessee, we see some very rough weather at times. In 2024, we saw hurricanes that destroyed areas and left homes without power for weeks.
We have been serving Smyth County, Wytheville, and the surrounding neighborhoods since 2011. We have seen the rise in popularity of generators, and with good reason! These systems protect your home from power loss during any major storm, or any power grid problems. No more worrying about the lights going out or your food going rotten. An air-cooled generator will keep your home powered and comfortable.

Why Should You Install A Generator?
Over time, we’ve become increasingly dependent on electricity, and power outages affect us more than ever. Here are a few of the most important appliances that benefit from having power:
- TV, WIFI, Internet
- Lights & Security Cameras
- Air Conditioners & Heating Systems
- Refrigerators, Dishwashers, Laundry
- Charging Capabilities

What Is An Air Cooled Generator?
There are 2 types of generators, air-cooled and liquid-cooled. Generally, the air-cooled generators are a bit smaller, and are intended for use in residential homes, for shorter periods of time.
Air-cooled generators use fans throughout the system to keep it cool. If the system gets too hot, it can stop functioning and shut down. In a liquid-cooled system, it cycles refrigerant to keep the components inside your generator cool. The biggest difference is the price, the size of the system, and how long you can use the system for.
We install both types of generators, and depending on the size of your space and intended use, we can help you choose the right generator for your needs!
Generator Facts
Generators are something we’ve used for years, but have not always had in our homes. Here are a few facts about whole home generators, and how they can impact your home!
Backup Power Facts And Tips
- Generators Turn On Automatically - Whole home generators don't require you to turn on a switch or press a button. As soon as the power goes out, the generator kicks on within seconds.
- Generators Run On Propane Or Gas - Depending on the generator, it either runs on oil or gas. If you have a natural gas line, it can be hooked up to that, or a propane tank that sits on your property!
- Standby Generators Are Permanently Installed - Unlike a portable generator, these whole home generators are installed permanently. These are usually placed on the side of your home, just like an HVAC system.
