A professionally installed standby generator provides dependable backup power the moment an outage occurs, helping protect your home, comfort, and peace of mind.
The Drying Company installs Generac air-cooled standby generators, providing homeowners with reliable, automatic backup power designed for long-term performance.

Not all backup power options offer the same level of protection. While portable generators can provide limited, short-term power, permanent standby generators are designed to deliver automatic, long-term home backup.
Portable generators require manual setup, extension cords, and on-site fuel storage. They typically power only a few devices and must be started after an outage begins. Permanent standby generators are professionally installed outside the home and connected directly to the electrical system, allowing them to respond automatically when power is lost.
Because they are permanently installed and properly sized, standby generators can support essential home systems or provide whole-home backup. They are built for extended outages, outdoor exposure, and dependable long-term performance — making them a more complete solution for homeowners who want reliable protection instead of a temporary fix.
Generac generators are designed for permanent outdoor installation with weather-resistant aluminum enclosures that protect internal components and support long-term exterior use.
