"In May of 2023 I had a system installed. When hurricane Milton ? came through the system failed. Called for emergency repair. Was told for an upfront payment, a technician would arrive within 48 hours. Technician did not come. After repeated calls. I was told because of an over abundance of calls I was pushed back a week. Duke Energy restored power to our home before Genrex came by. Mind you the Generx is supposed to perform during emergency. Now to get a service for a annual check up, to maintain warranty. Was told my last service person used superior parts. Why would they not supply quality products initially? I am very unhappy with Generx. I will not recommend Generx. In fact I will strongly advocate against this company to family and friends. "

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Ocala’s humid, storm-prone climate means generator installations require weatherproof enclosures and corrosion-resistant materials. Because hurricane season increases demand and can delay projects, scheduling installation in spring or winter is ideal. Elevated mounting helps prevent flood damage, while proper ventilation is essential for reliable operation during hot, muggy summers. Afternoon thunderstorms may also impact installation timelines, so flexibility is important.

Helpful?

In Ocala, start your seasonal generator inspection each spring by testing batteries, fuel lines, and air filters before hurricane season. During summer and fall, run weekly exercise cycles and inspect after severe storms. In winter, schedule a professional maintenance check, change the oil, and look for rust or corrosion. Keep monthly records of visual inspections and control panel tests to ensure reliable backup power year-round.

Helpful?

In Ocala, unexpected generator installation costs often stem from extending gas lines for standby generators, upgrading outdated electrical panels, or addressing sandy soil with deeper foundations. You may also face fees for required permits, property surveys, or neighborhood approvals. Additional expenses can arise from post-installation startup testing, surge protection upgrades, or investing in extended warranties to handle Ocala’s frequent storms and power outages.

Helpful?

After your generator installation in Ocala, confirm that all inspections are passed and permits are closed. Store warranty paperwork and a maintenance log in a safe spot. Schedule annual service with a local technician familiar with backup power systems in Ocala’s climate. Test your transfer switch monthly, check the fuel system for leaks, and notify your insurance provider about the new standby generator to ensure proper coverage.

Helpful?

In Ocala, homeowners often underestimate the generator size needed for multiple air conditioners or major appliances. Placing generators in flood-prone or poorly ventilated areas is a frequent error, as is skipping required setbacks from property lines. Failing to confirm gas supply, neglecting permit requirements, and not updating insurance or maintenance plans can lead to safety issues and unexpected problems with your standby generator system.
