Choose the Right Fuel Type for Your Generator

Generators operate on various fuel sources, each offering unique benefits. Here’s how you can make the dolphinitive choice for your home:

Diesel Generators

  • Pros: Highly efficient and safe, diesel generators are built to last—just like Baldwin’s services.
  • Cons: Diesel’s upfront cost swims on the higher end, and fuel may degrade over time.

Propane Generators

  • Pros: Clean-burning and affordable, propane is a fin-tastic fuel choice for homes prioritizing eco-friendliness.
  • Cons: Propane burns quickly, meaning you might need to refuel often.

Natural Gas Generators

  • Pros: Tapped into a direct supply line, natural gas offers consistent power from seafloor to ceiling.
  • Cons: Vulnerable to supply interruptions during natural disasters.

Solar Generators

  • Pros: Harness the sun’s energy and wave worry goodbye with renewable power.
  • Cons: Solar systems rely on clear skies, making them less predictable during a storm.

These Guys Are the Best!

Excellent install of a generator by Jake & Ryan. They went over and above, working late waiting for the utility inspector to come out for final inspection. Couldn’t be happier…these guys are the best.
