Generator Installation in Brooklyn

Brooklyn is mostly full of apartment buildings and other multi-unit properties, with a small number of single-family homes in some areas. While property owners of multi-unit buildings or single-family homes may look for whole-home standby generators or larger portable options, renters need compact and quiet backup power that doesn’t require permanent installation or violate the terms of their lease.

Here is a quick rundown of the different generator types and what they offer residents:
