Generators

An Alternative Solution to Power Outages

Install A Generator Transfer Switch By Chesapeake Electric

At Chesapeake Electric, we understand that a standby generator isn’t a fit for everyone. For many Maryland residents, you just don’t lose power enough to warrant the cost of a standby generator, but you still want a solution that allows you power during the unfortunate circumstance of a power outage.

Does that sound like you? If it does, a generator manual transfer switch may be the way to go.

With a manual transfer switch, you can designate 8-10 circuits on your electric panel that you would want to be able to power with a smaller portable generator! For a fraction of the price, you can ensure your sump pump has power, your food doesn’t spoil in the fridge, and your family is able to live comfortably while you wait for the power to return.

The Benefits Of A Generator Manual Transfer Switch

When you lose power at home, having one of our home standby generators can save you money, hassle, and priceless peace of mind. The essentials of heat and air conditioning that we all take for granted leave us uncomfortable and irritated when they shut down without warning. Other amenities, like our computers, televisions, phones, and the ability to charge them all, can disrupt our lives when they suddenly no longer work. In the event of a power outage, having a home standby generator installed at your residential property can not only return your investment in purchasing and installation but also save you thousands of dollars.

No Relocating Costs - Gone are the days of having to relocate your entire family during a power outage. Having to pay for a hotel for even one night can cost several hundred dollars, and sometimes power outages last weeks or even months at a time! Having a manual transfer switch will allow you to wait in your own home for the power to come back on rather than wasting time and money on a hotel stay.

No Flooding - When utility power fails, and your basement sump pump stops running, flooding becomes more likely. Clean-up and remodels afterward can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. With a manual transfer switch, you can ensure that your sump pump will be able to function optimally, preventing damages done to your basement because of flooding.

No Spoiled Food - If the power goes out, it’s only a matter of time before the food in your refrigerator goes bad. Having to throw out all your food during a power outage is not only wasteful, but it is also costly. When you have a portable generator transfer switch, you can ensure your food stays fresh, and your bellies stay full!

Peace of Mind - Peace of mind is priceless. You can finally feel at ease knowing regardless of the power-outage situation, you have back-up power in your home when you need it the most. With just a simple plug in and a switch, your home and be back up and running while you wait for the power to return.

What Our Happy Customers Are Saying

Testimonials

Chesapeake did an amazing job. Communication was great from the original appointment through the actual job. Work was done very well and the left everything looking perfect. Would absolutely use their services again.

A loose connection in the wall socket for our oven caused the socket to smoke and start to melt. Brian from Chesapeake Electric came out and was thorough with his diagnosis. He laid out the options AND had the work done the same day. The new cable/socket are installed much cleaner and up to modern standards/code.

Casey came out to my home and after a few questions we both walked in each room to try and determine my partial outage. After testing the breaker box and outside unit he discovered it was a power strip that was causing my partial outage. I would like to add that Casey was very knowledgeable, friendly and very courteous. He then proceeded to provide many options for things he saw that will need attention at a later date. I would definitely consider calling on them in the near future and would highly recommend this company
