GENERAC Offers Special Pricing to SRE Members
Southern Rivers Energy partners with Generac Power Systems, and GRESCO to offer members peace of mind with whole-house backup power solutions. Generac home generators, powered by natural gas or propane, provide automatic protection for your entire home or essential appliances during outages.
If you are interested in a whole-house generator, you can contact our authorized Generac installer, and they will conduct an in-home consultation free of charge. During your free in-home consultation, a representative will discuss your backup power needs so that they can recommend the best standby power system. They will explain the installation process and help you choose the best location for your generator. You will receive a written estimate with no obligation to buy.
If you have or are considering purchasing a portable generator for your home, please consider purchasing a GenerLink Switch to prevent backfeeding of the power line. Southern Rivers Energy will install a GenerLink Switch behind the meter. This prevents running multiple extension cords and helps ensure the safety of our linemen and field service technicians. Members are required to sign a GenerLink Installation Agreement before Southern Rivers Energy can install the switch.
If not done correctly, connecting a portable electric generator directly to your household wiring can be deadly to your neighbors and electric utility workers. A generator connected to a home’s wiring or plugged into a regular household outlet can cause backfeeding along power lines and electrocute anyone who comes in contact with them—even if the line seems dead. SRE employees are not the only ones in danger when a portable generator is misused. Generator owners may risk electrocution, fire injury, property damage, or carbon monoxide poisoning if they do not follow the necessary safety rules.
SRE members can take advantage of special premier pricing from Gresco Utility Supply and financing through Synchrony Bank or GoEnergy Financial Credit Union.
