Hurricane season officially began on June 1st. And according to the experts, it’s supposed to be a doozy!
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently projected a 60% chance of an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season for 2025, warning of heightened storm activity fueled by record-warm ocean temperatures and atmospheric conditions that favor the development of powerful cyclones.
The agency expects between 13 and 19 named storms, of which 6 to 10 are likely to reach hurricane strength, including 3 to 5 major hurricanes classified as Category 3 or higher with winds of at least 111 miles per hour.
Given the odds of a hurricane blowing through our neck of the woods, we encourage all our customers to consider purchasing a whole-home emergency backup generator from Harris Comfort.
Fueled by propane or natural gas, a whole-home back-up generator automatically starts itself within seconds of sensing a power failure and turns off automatically when the power is restored.
We offer generators in a variety of power capacities, and specialize in units from Generac, one of the best- known brands in the business. And you can leave it to our expert technicians to install your generator the right way.
Now, you may be wondering, “My neighbor uses a portable generator. What’s wrong with that?” A whole-home generator is all about safety; unlike portable generators, whole-home units don’t emit fumes that can lead to a carbon monoxide buildup problem.
A whole-home generator literally provides power to your whole home – meaning:
-
You can keep the lights on in as many rooms as you wish
-
There’ll be cold food in the fridge and freezer
-
Your air conditioner will continue to cool your rooms
-
The TV will stay on so you can keep tabs on the storm.
It’ll be like a hurricane never happened!
Plus, when the winter blizzards arrive to knock out your power, you’ll enjoy all the comforts of home, thanks to your new generator.
Don’t let a power outage ruin your summer! Contact Harris Comfort today so we can find the perfect generator for you!
