A standby generator is wired into your home and fuel supply and starts by itself when the power fails. That convenience also means more parts that can fail: the engine, the battery, the controller, the fuel connection and the transfer switch.

Common standby generator problems include:

  • A battery that has lost charge, which is one of the most common reasons a standby unit will not start
  • Fault codes or warning lights on the controller
  • A transfer switch that does not move the load to the generator
  • Fuel supply problems, including closed valves or low pressure
  • A generator that starts and then shuts down
  • A unit that has not been exercised or serviced for a long time

Repairs start with reading the codes and checking the basics, then testing the engine and the transfer switch. Call and describe what your generator shows, and we will connect you with a local provider who works on standby systems.

Standby Generator Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Standby Generator Repair

Questions we hear most often about Standby Generator Repair in Oakpark, VA.

Talk to a real person
What is the difference between a standby generator and a portable generator?
A standby generator is permanently installed, runs on natural gas or propane and starts automatically when the power fails. A portable generator is moved by hand, runs on gasoline or propane, and you start it and connect it yourself.
What does an automatic transfer switch do?
It moves your home from utility power to the generator when the power goes out, and back again when it returns. It also prevents the generator from feeding power back into the grid, which protects utility workers.
Why does my generator run but the house has no power?
The usual causes are a failed transfer switch, a tripped breaker, a damaged outlet or a failed voltage regulator. Because it involves your electrical system, it should be checked by a qualified person.
Why does my generator surge or stall?
Surging is often caused by dirty fuel, a clogged carburetor or filter, or a fuel supply problem. Stalling can also come from low oil, an overload or a failing sensor.
Is it safe to repair a generator myself?
Basic checks like the oil level, battery and fuel are reasonable. Fuel systems, the transfer switch and anything connected to your home's wiring involve fire, shock and carbon monoxide risks, so they are best left to a qualified provider.
