Servicing & Maintenance

As with any vehicle or item which has an engine, maintenance plays a crucial part in making sure that your generator is always ready and waiting to take over the load when your electricity supply is interrupted.

We offer once off /annual services where all filters are changed, all fluids are drained from the machine and replenished, connections checked and tightened, a load test performed and the machine is cleaned. We take pride in our work and there’s nothing more satisfying to our team than to see a machine we’ve supplied in top shape.

There is also a contract option when it comes to maintenance. We know that life gets busy, so let us take care of your generator. Our contracts run on a yearly basis with either quarterly visits or monthly visits, client dependent. Quarterly visits consist of 3 preventative maintenance visits during the year where all fluid levels are checked, all connections tightened and a general check up of the machine. The 4th visit consists of a major service to the unit. Monthly visits work on the same principle and one of the visits will consist of a major service to the unit.
