Automatic Whole House Backup Power Generators Means Energy Independence in Charlotte
If you want to know what it’s like to be without power in Charlotte, you don’t have to go all the way back to 1989 when Hurricane Hugo brought 80-100 mph winds, took down 80,000 trees, and exploded power transformers, leaving hundreds of thousands in the dark for up to three weeks.
Every year severe weather, along with utility equipment failures, and run-of-the-mill accidents, knocks out power across Charlotte and Mecklenburg County — sometimes for days at a time. While there’s rarely heavy snow, winter brings the same mix of ice and freezing rain that drops power lines throughout central North Carolina, and in spring and summer high-wind thunderstorms, hail and tornadoes are pretty common.
Charlotte also catches the remnants of almost every major hurricane and tropical storm that hits North Carolina, and usually without much warning. You probably remember when the National Weather Service issued a rare Tropical Storm Warning for Mecklenburg County on October 29, 2020, when Zeta’s remnants raced through the area with 55 mph winds and heavy rains, dropping trees onto homes, powerlines, and roads across the region, and leaving thousands without any power.

With roads blocked by trees and powerlines, no power to your home and neighborhood, it doesn’t take long for your food, supplies, and good humor to run low. Without the protection of a backup home generator, you have three options. You can wait for power to come back on— no cooking, no refrigeration, no heating or air conditioning, no TV, no phone chargers, and possibly no water. You can try to hunt down a hotel room with what’s left of your dwindling phone charge, and get to the whole family there. Or, you can find a kind-hearted friend or family member with power to take you in.
But, before the next season brings new weather and power outage challenges, you can explore an altogether better option— uninterrupted power with an automatic, whole house backup generator from Canter Power Systems.
When you’ve got a backup Generator in Charlotte
Think about how your life would change if you never had to worry about being without power in Charlotte – ever again. If the power goes out – for any reason – you can relax in the comfort and protection of your own home as your life goes on as normal, even if power is out for days or weeks.
Whether it’s a major storm or a sunny day blip, your backup generator for the home turns itself on automatically, just 15 seconds after your home’s power goes off — and it stays on until utility service is restored. Even if the power goes out while you’re still inching your way home along I-85 or I-77 you don’t have to worry. Your generator will start up automatically and run everything you count on in your house, just as if you were there.
Imagine this scenario next time the power goes off in Charlotte
Whether you live in Providence, Lake Norman, or further out in Mecklenburg County, or one of the surrounding counties, your lights and power are ON, even if all your neighbors’ homes are dark. You can heat and cool your home, cook, wash dishes and clothes, bathe, charge your phones and computers and keep your refrigerated and frozen food safe. And, if you count on power to keep medicines cool or operate assistive equipment, you’re covered.
Your whole family can watch television, listen to music, read books, play games, and use computers and phones to stay in contact with your larger world. Instead of rationing candles and flashlights, you can stay up after dark doing what you want and need to do. With a Generac whole home backup generator, you can even select to run only certain appliances during a power outage if you prefer. The choice is 100% up to you.
