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 Darien, CT.

Talk to a real person
How often should a home generator be serviced?
Follow the maintenance schedule in your generator's manual, because intervals vary by model. Most standby generators need service at least once a year, and portable generators benefit from fresh fuel, an oil check and a test run before storm season.
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.
Can I run a generator in a garage or near the house?
No. Generators produce carbon monoxide, which can kill. Never run one indoors, in a garage or in a partly enclosed space. Keep it outside and well away from windows, doors and vents, and install carbon monoxide alarms in your home.
How much does generator repair cost?
It depends on the generator, the fault and the parts. A battery replacement is a different job from a fuel system or transfer switch repair. Call and describe the problem, and ask for an estimate.
