Consumer Alert

Stopping Domestic Electrical Hazards in Fort Lauderdale

Electrical issues in Fort Lauderdale are often exacerbated by Broward County's high humidity and salt-air environment. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to property damage or safety hazards.

Hasn't Been Serviced Annually

Generators need annual maintenance—oil change, filter replacement, battery check. Skipping maintenance invites failure when you need power.

Battery Issues During Self-Test

If your generator struggles to start during weekly self-tests, the battery may be failing. Batteries typically need replacement every 3-4 years.

Unusual Sounds or Smoke

Strange noises, excessive smoke, or rough running indicate mechanical issues needing diagnosis before they become larger problems.

Fuel Problems

Fuel systems can develop issues—clogged filters, stale fuel (propane excepted), water contamination. Regular service prevents fuel-related failures.

Transfer Switch Not Tested

The transfer switch is critical—if it fails, your generator can't power your home. Annual testing verifies proper operation.

Been Years Since Last Service

Life gets busy, but generators don't maintain themselves. If it's been more than a year, schedule service before hurricane season.

How It Works

How Our Fort Lauderdale Generator Maintenance Service Process Works

1

Visual Inspection

We inspect the generator exterior, connections, and enclosure for damage, corrosion, pests, or anything affecting operation.

2

Oil and Filter Service

We change oil and filters according to manufacturer specifications—essential for long engine life and reliable operation.

3

Battery Testing

We load-test the starting battery and check connections. Weak batteries are the #1 cause of generator start failures.

4

Operational Testing

We run the generator under load, verify proper voltage and frequency, and check transfer switch operation.

5

Documentation

We provide a service report documenting work performed and any recommendations—important for warranty and maintenance records.

Why It Matters

Generator Maintenance Service Benefits for Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Reliable When Needed

Maintained generators start and run when power fails. Neglected generators often fail at the worst possible time.

Extended Lifespan

Regular maintenance extends generator life significantly. Well-maintained generators last 20-30 years; neglected ones fail much sooner.

Warranty Protection

Most generator warranties require documented maintenance. Skip service and you may void your warranty.

Peace of Mind

Know your generator is ready before hurricane season arrives. Maintenance now prevents panic later.

Common Questions

Common Generator Maintenance Service Questions from Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Annually at minimum. Most manufacturers recommend service every 100-200 hours of operation OR annually, whichever comes first. If your generator runs frequently (multiple outages), more frequent service may be appropriate.
Comprehensive service includes: oil and filter change, air filter inspection/replacement, spark plug inspection/replacement (gas units), battery testing, coolant check (liquid-cooled), fuel system inspection, operational testing, and transfer switch verification.
Common causes include: dead or weak battery (#1 cause), stale fuel (gas units left sitting), low oil (auto-shutoff protection), transfer switch issues, or mechanical problems from lack of maintenance. We diagnose and repair start failures.
Typically 3-4 years in Florida's heat. Weekly exercise runs help but don't prevent eventual failure. We recommend proactive battery replacement every 3 years rather than waiting for failure during an outage.
Yes—annual oil changes are recommended regardless of runtime. Oil degrades over time even when not running. Contaminants from combustion accumulate during exercise runs. Fresh oil protects the engine whether it runs 10 hours or 100.
Load bank testing runs the generator at full rated capacity using a load bank device. This verifies the generator can actually deliver rated power and that all systems function properly under load. Weekly exercise runs are typically light load only.

Generator Maintenance Service in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Your backup generator only works if it's maintained. Solomon Electric provides comprehensive generator maintenance throughout Broward and Broward counties—keeping your standby generator ready to protect your home when hurricanes and outages strike. Our licensed electricians perform a complete load calculation before any panel work, ensuring your new panel meets current NEC requirements and has room for future expansion. We use copper bus bars, properly torqued connections, and AFCI/GFCI breakers where required by Florida Building Code.

Annual Generator Service in Fort Lauderdale & Fort Lauderdale and Broward County SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Generators need annual maintenance including oil and filter changes, battery testing, fuel system service, and operational verification. Regular service prevents the failures that occur with neglected generators—don't wait until an outage to discover problems. Fort Lauderdale and Broward County's heat and humidity accelerate corrosion inside electrical panels. We inspect for oxidized bus bars, loose connections, and thermal damage that compromise safety. Every panel we install includes proper weather sealing rated for coastal environments.

Pre-Hurricane Season Generator Maintenance in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County SOLVING LOCAL ELECTRICAL CHALLENGES IN FORT LAUDERDALE

Schedule generator maintenance before hurricane season—not during. Spring service ensures your generator is ready when you need it. When storms threaten, everyone calls for service and availability becomes limited. Insurance companies increasingly require panel upgrades for policy renewals. Our electricians provide documented before-and-after reports that satisfy insurance requirements, and we coordinate directly with your insurer when needed.

Solomon Electric provides generator maintenance throughout Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Coral Gables, Pembroke Pines, and all surrounding communities. Keep your backup power ready—schedule your annual maintenance today.
