  • Why Your Generator Needs Exercise

    If you have a whole-home standby generator , you’ve already made a smart move to protect your home during a power outage. But did you know your generator needs regular exercise  to stay in good shape? To ensure your standby generator operates properly and can pick up the load during a power outage, it will periodically exercise. During the exercise, the generator automatically starts up for a short time on a preset schedule. This is a self-diagnostic process that ensures the generator can start up and run properly when needed. Why Exercise Matters Regular exercise helps your generator: 🔋 Keep internal parts lubricated 🌫️ Burn off built-up moisture 🔧 Identify minor issues before they become big ones 🤫 Run quieter and more efficiently at low speed Regardless of the generator brand, we can inspect, program, and maintain your system to ensure you have the backup power you need. For additional security and Peace Of Mind, install a remote monitor system and receive automatic updates of your generator status.

  • Consider a Home Battery Backup System

    If you live in Florida, you know the weather can be unpredictable — and so can your power supply. Between hurricanes, lightning storms, and rising energy costs, having a reliable backup power source isn’t just a luxury, it’s Peace of Mind. That’s where a home battery backup system  comes in.

  • Hurricane Season Starts June 1st — Is Backup Power Part of Your Storm Plan?

    Hurricane Season Starts Soon — Don’t Let Power Loss Catch You Off Guard When the lights go out, your safety, comfort, and peace of mind depend on one thing: reliable backup power . Here in Central Florida , hurricane season officially begins June 1st . Now is the time to ask: Does your storm plan include a home standby generator? ⚡ Why Backup Power Matters in Florida Hurricanes and severe storms  regularly knock out power for days — sometimes weeks. Food spoils. AC stops. Medical equipment fails. Communications go dark. Without a whole-home generator , you risk being without power when you need it most. A properly installed Whole House Standby Generator  automatically detects outages and restores electricity within seconds — powering your refrigerator, lights, HVAC, security systems, and more. 🛠️ What You Can Do Now Inspect your existing generator : Clean around it, check battery charge, oil level, air filter, and for any signs of wear. If you already have a generator, have it professionally serviced before your power goes out and you need the generator to operate. Don’t have a generator yet?  Now is the time to install one — before demand spikes during a storm. Add remote monitoring  so you can track your generator’s status, even if you evacuate. 📞 Let’s Get You Storm-Ready At Lakeland Generator Service , we offer: Expert standby generator installation in Lakeland FL and the surrounding communities and counties Turnkey solutions for whole-house power backup Professional generator maintenance and remote monitoring Service throughout Polk and surrounding counties in Central Florida 👉 Call today: (863) 712-4867 👉 Visit our website at:   www.LakelandGenerator.com Be ready before the first storm.

  • Is Your Standby Generator Storm-Ready?

    Do This Before the Power Goes Out When a storm is on the horizon, your generator shouldn’t be an afterthought — it should be the first thing you check. Power outages are inevitable during hurricane season, but with proper preparation, your home standby generator  can keep your family safe and comfortable. Here are essential tips from Lakeland Generator Service  to ensure your generator is ready before the storm hits: ✅ Generator Storm Prep Checklist: Clear Debris Around the Unit:  Remove leaves, sticks, toys, or anything blocking airflow. Maintain at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides — including fences, shrubs, and decorations. Clean the Inside of the Enclosure:  Open the lid and clear out any buildup of debris inside — grass clippings, insects, leaves, etc. These can cause overheating or electrical issues. Check the Battery:  Ensure it’s holding a proper charge. Clean any corrosion from the terminals. Inspect the Air Filter:  If it looks dirty, dusty, or damaged, replace it immediately to avoid airflow restrictions. Fuel & Oil Inspection:  Look over all fuel and oil lines for leaks or loose connections. Check the sediment trap and empty it if needed. Check Spark Plugs:  If worn or gapped incorrectly, clean or replace them as needed. Monitor Oil Daily (During Outages):  If your generator is running continuously, check the oil each day and keep extra oil on hand for top-ups. 🛠️ Bonus Tip: Install Remote Monitoring If you haven’t already, install an InfoHub wireless monitor . It lets you track the status of your generator in real time — even if you're away from home. 💡 Schedule Your Generator Service Now Don’t wait for the forecast to force your hand. Prevent downtime and stress by having your generator professionally inspected and serviced  before hurricane season peaks. 📞 Call Lakeland Generator Service at (863) 712-4867 🌐 LakelandGenerator.com
