Always place your generator Outside of the home for safety.
When the lights start to flicker one's first instinct is to grab the flashlights to be ready if the power goes out.
There is a large number of homeowners and businesses that own generators that can keep the vital systems in a building running.
The generators exhaust fumes very similar to your automobile. Making sure these fumes don't come back into your home is extremely important!
Generators should be placed Outside in order to exhaust the fumes out into the open. Even putting the generator in the garage is not a safe practice, the generator should be outside of the home and venting away from any fresh air inlet.
When the power goes off and your property sustains property damage, call SERVPRO to do your repairs and mitigate the damage.
