With hurricane Irene coming in quickly, it is critical to take all necessary precautions. A portable generator can quickly and effectively keep your family safe and secure during this unpredictable storm. 

The Miami based hurricane centre said “Irene is forecast to become a larger than average hurricane”. Irene is currently moving at a category 2 and anticipated to hit an alarming category 4.  Everybody living on the eastern coast of the U.S. should monitor Irene closely and take immediate steps to keep as safe and comfortable as possible. Authorities along the U.S. Atlantic seaboard whom are watching Irene’s path, say Irene may even sweep up near New York City early next week.

With comfort and confirmation, forecasts show Irene is no threat to the U.S. oil and gas instillations in the gulf of Mexico, and therefore anticipate gas to be a safe emergency power fuel. Norwall Power Systems has a lineup of emergency power generators that run on gasoline ready for purchasers to take prompt advantage of. There are literally 1000’s in stock. A portable generator is small, economical and will keep home necessities running such as, lights, refrigerator and other vital appliances.

Although a portable generator is perfect for many situations, like the current hurricane, for future home or business safety and reliability, a standby generator will provide automatic power to a number of erratic situations.  Black-outs, brown-outs, inclement weather, tornados, electrical storms, accidents, power plant issues are just a few of the increasing conditions we need to prepare for, and be ready for.  Of course these generators are more costly than a portable, but they have an infinite number of hours on them in comparison, and also start automatically once they sense a power disruption.

The Generac Guardian 8kW generator is a trustworthy unit that lasts three to four times longer than most, and needs less maintenance check-ups than equivalent standby brands. For further power and performance, the Generac Guardian 20kW is a popular and effective choice.

This past Monday, Irene, still a tropical storm, scattered across the northeast Caribbean islands creating a lightning strike fire, destroying a mansion on Necker Island, owned by the British billionaire Richard Branson.

With that said, don’t leave your family and belongings to chance. Get your power generator delivered in as little as a few days.
