Your generator needs more than just fuel to run.

Most homeowners don't realize a home standby generator requires annual maintenance. the same way your car does. Skip it long enough, and it won't start when you actually need it.

Here's what a proper annual service covers:

OIL & FILTER. Changed every year, regardless of run time.
AIR FILTER. Dirty filters choke performance and strain the engine.
SPARK PLUGS. Worn plugs mean hard starts and rough running.
BATTERY. The most common reason a generator fails to start.
LOAD TEST. Confirms the unit will actually carry your home's power demand.

One service call. One hour. One less thing to worry about when the lights go out.

Scheduling is simple. Find our link in the comments.

Your generator runs. That doesn't mean it's ready.

Most homeowners assume a generator that starts is a generator that works. It's not.

Here's what actually matters for home standby maintenance:

OIL + FILTER. Changed annually, or every 200 hours. Old oil breaks down and wears the engine silently.

BATTERY TEST. A weak battery is the number one reason a generator fails to start when the power goes out.

AIR FILTER. Dirty air means a rich fuel mix, hard starts, and shortened engine life.

EXERCISE UNDER LOAD. Weekly auto-exercise is good. Running under actual load is better. It reveals problems the idle cycle won't.

ERROR CODES. Your generator logs faults. Most owners never check them. We do, every visit.

We've been servicing generators in Oregon City since 1976. We've seen what skipped maintenance costs. It's always more than the service call.
