Your home’s electrical panel operates as the heart of your home, providing for all your electrical needs. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting, Inc. stands ready to make sure that your home is equipped with the power needed to accommodate the new and more energy-demanding electrical appliances. Upgrades to an electrical panel can be made for both functional and financial rea- sons. As technology continues to enter every aspect of life, power requirements will continue to increase. Prospective home- owners may look at old panels as a sign of an obsolete electrical system in disrepair, so upgrading a panel can make a big differ- ence during the sale of a property. Also, by upgrading services to meet these modern demands, homeowners can install new devices and appliances without the fear of being limited by their existing system. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting is dedicated to providing customers with all their electrical needs, including licensed installation of Kohler brand generators. While it’s true that hurricanes, ice storms and the like can often cause long term power outages, even something as simple as a blown transformer can result in a sig- nificant power loss. Standby generators are rapidly becoming the must have home improvement of the 21st century. Adding a backup power supply with a standby gen- erator is also one of the best home remod- eling projects a homeowner can undertake in terms of recouping the cost during the resale of your home. A permanent standby generator is a com- plete hands-free solution that requires no technical know-how or ability at all. It starts automatically during a power outage and powers the home’s vital components. It can be purchased for an affordable price and is a sensible investment for any home, but particularly for elderly homeowners who might find an interruption in power to be as much a safety and health concern as an inconvenience. Homeowners away on vacation can access their generator online to run a diagnostics and check that the generator is prepared for an impending storm or outage. Kohler’s OnCue Home Generator Management System software, can send an email or text message to the homeowner and Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting when the generator comes on. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting can assist you in matching a generator to the home’s needs, by totaling up the wattage needs of the appliances that will be powered during an outage. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting will make sure you get a professional installation that meets all local and national building codes to ensure the safety and reliability of your system. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Con- tracting can also guide you through the selection and installation of a UPS (uninter- ruptible power supply) system to prevent damage that can occur to computers and other electronics when the power supply is abruptly cut off. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting prides ourselves on our professional, highly skilled technicians. A power outage that lasts a few hours is often nothing more than an inconvenience, requiring some flashlights and a little patience. But when a major storm knocks out electricity for days, a backup power solution can literally be a lifesaver. As you’re planning and dreaming your next home improvement project, don’t overlook what a KOHLER® generator or an upgraded service can do for your house’s resale value. Rhodes & Sons Electrical Contracting is located in Middlesex. For all your generator or electrical needs, go to their website www.rhodeselectric.com o r call them at 732-424-0600.PAGE 20
