Many homeowners often ask what the benefit is for having your generator on a stand as opposed to lying on the ground:
Keeping your generator lifted is critical especially for areas of Southeastern Louisiana as natural factors such as unstable ground, flooding, and dirt weeds and other forms of debris can all impact the function of your whole home standby generator. Many generators installed in Southern Louisiana without a stand often begin to sink into the ground with prolonged time given the weight of the generator and the natural marshy terrain of Louisiana soil. In specific locations close to water as well flooding and saltwater contamination can become an issue as certain water exposure will cause rust and corrosion to critical generator parts.
