As the weather warms up, construction and outdoor project season gets into full swing. That means generator rentals are in high demand to power tools and equipment on jobsites without electric access.
Getting your rental generator properly delivered, setup, and running smoothly is key to keeping your project on schedule. Here are 10 tips:
Research generator sizes - Calculate your power needs to rent the right capacity. Too small and it'll overload, too big just wastes rental $.
Rent ASAP - April is peak season. Reserve your rental generator early to ensure availability.
Confirm delivery date/time - Make sure someone will be onsite to receive the unit.
Clear space - Generator needs a flat, firm surface with access to fuel storage & plugs.
Have fuel on hand - Diesel or gas must be readily available to refuel.
Bring heavy duty extension cords - Ensure cords are properly rated and in good condition.
Attach equipment correctly - Consult manual if unsure. Overloading voids warranty.
Run monthly test - Ensure everything starts and runs properly.
Schedule maintenance - Rentals take abuse, so have a technician inspect it.
Know emergency protocols - Get contacts and info in case any issues arise.
