Cummins Residential Generators
Your power can go out at any time but finding peace of mind doesn’t have to be a headache, as it can often be with portable generators. Although they can be ideal for camping and other outdoor uses, portable generators can be very noisy and require cords, cables and usually gasoline to operate, and they must be started up manually. Standby generators, on the other hand, are safe, permanent backup solutions for your home. Professionally installed and always at the ready, they automatically turn on the moment an outage strikes. Then they run powerfully, quietly, and efficiently until the outage is over. They’re simply the best choice for backing up your home and keeping you Always On.
The QuietConnect Series puts 100 years of proven Cummins reliability into a range of powerful backup solutions. Featuring advanced technology and design for nearly any home, large or small, these quiet, compact generators allow your life to go on normally, even during an outage.
COMPACT DESIGN
The compact design allows installation close to your home, and sleek appearance blends into your landscape.
LOAD MANAGEMENT
Intelligent learning allows homeowners to do more with a smaller generator, providing optimal performance and convenience.
QUIET
Patented sound technology and an advanced housing design help make these generators some of the quietist in the industry.
EXCEPTIONAL MOTOR STARTING
With powerful motor starting ability, these generators can easily start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load.
NO START EXERCISING
The generator offers an eco-friendly way to run diagnostics without starting the engine, giving homeowners confidence while decreasing fuel consumption and noise.
COLD WEATHER CAPABILITY
Cummins standby generators are designed to operate at 0°F out of the box and well below freezing with a cold weather kit
WHAT SIZE OF GENERATOR DO YOU NEED?
The size of your generator depends on how much power you need. Do you want to back up your whole house or just select appliances? It usually comes down to your budget and how comfortable you want to be during an outage. A PRIMA Power Systems technical sales person can assist you with sizing your generator according to your power requirements of your home while meeting local electrical codes.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING AN INSTALLATON?
Installing a standby generator requires a qualified professional and compliance to various codes (local, provincial, national). Fortunately, PRIMA Power Systems can help!
The following is a guide for a typical installation:
- First, a transfer switch—an electrical device that connects your home to power from either your generator or your utility provider—is installed.
- Next, your generator is installed outside of your home. The location will depend on a variety of factors and code compliance requirements.
- Your generator is then wired to the transfer switch.
- The fuel lines (either propane or natural gas) are now connected to the generator.
That’s it! Your generator is ready to give you years of safe, dependable backup power. Regular servicing is recommended to keep everything in working order. Give PRIMA Power Systems a call and we can work through the details.
