Will my generator work during natural gas outages?

Natural gas outages are extremely rare in Westover Hills because gas lines are underground and not affected by storms that knock down electrical lines. The gas distribution system operates independently from the electrical grid, so your generator will have fuel even during extended power outages.Natural gas pressure is maintained by the utility company using backup systems, making it the most reliable fuel source for generators. Unlike propane tanks that can run empty or gasoline that degrades over time, natural gas provides unlimited runtime during outages.In the unlikely event of a gas service interruption, most generators can be converted to use propane as a backup fuel source. We can discuss dual-fuel options during your consultation if you want maximum redundancy for critical applications like medical equipment.

We coordinate this inspection and address any items the inspector identifies. The permit and inspection process protects your investment and ensures your homeowner’s insurance remains valid.
