Let’s see what are the necessary preparations to get a generator ready for hurricane season.
- First we need to perform a Preventive Maintenance
- Check the generator's filters and fuel injectors.
- Check the fuel and fuel tank for water or microbial growth such as bacteria or fungi.
- Make sure the battery is charged.
- Do some general cleanup such as vacuuming out any debris inside the generator as well as cleaning the exterior of the unit.
- Perform a test on load to make sure everything is running as it should, because the last thing you want is to find out there is a problem in the middle of a storm.
The amount of maintenance necessary would of course be dependent on the number of hours the generator has already been run.
