Storm vs. Generator Myth-Busting ⛈️
There's a lot of misinformation out there when it comes to generators and storm preparedness. Let's clear up a few common myths:
Myth: "I only need a generator for hurricanes."
Fact: Power outages can happen from thunderstorms, winter weather, accidents, and equipment failures.
Myth: "If the power goes out, it will be back on in a few hours."
Fact: Some outages can last days depending on the severity of the damage.
Myth: "Generators are all loud."
Fact: Modern generators, especially water-cooled diesel systems like the HERO, are designed to operate much quieter than older models.
Myth: "Natural gas is my only backup power option."
Fact: Diesel generators offer long fuel life, excellent reliability, and continued operation even when gas pressure is impacted.
Myth: "I'll just buy a portable generator when a storm is coming."
Fact: By the time a major storm is approaching, generators, fuel, and supplies are often in short supply.
The best time to prepare for the next outage is before it's in the forecast.
