Generator Installation In Dallas, TX

Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

What Happens When You Don’t Have A Whole Home Automatic Backup Generator in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas?

The saying “If you don’t like the weather in Texas, just wait five minutes” was created with Dallas-Fort Worth in mind. The climate is characterized as “hot summers and mild winters.” But if you live here, you know that this covers a wide range of temperatures and types of weather, from sublime to downright scary.

Do we have blisteringly hot weather? YES! Single-digit winter temperatures? YES. Thunderstorms, rain, and hail? THOSE TOO.

If you live here you know that summer temperatures in North Texas are frequently over 100 degrees, with dangerous heat waves that strain the power grid and exacerbate health problems. In spring temperatures are mild, but weather can get volatile fast when cool northern fronts tangle with warm air from the Gulf of Mexico.

If you live anywhere in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, you’ve learned to expect — and prepare for — severe thunderstorms in spring that come with lightning, rain, hail, and power outages.

Prepare Your Family for the Next Power Crisis

In winter, single-digit temperatures and periods of freezing rain or a dusting of snow aren’t unusual in Dallas-Fort Worth — but neither are daytime highs in the 60s. Winter storms rarely last more than a few days and widespread and extended winter power outages are usually a once-in-a-decade problem.

But that changed in February 2021 when back-to-back winter storms brought single-digit temperatures, snow, sleet, and ice to Texas, leaving almost 5 million Texans in the dark and knocking out 50% of the state’s power generation capacity. Before it was over, you or someone you know was probably among the 1.1 million who lost power and water in Dallas-Fort Worth.

Over the course of ten days, two waves of sleet and ice were interrupted only by a snow storm that dumped 4” of snow. Starting with a 133-vehicle pileup on Interstate 35W and minus 2-degree temperatures (breaking a 72-year-record), you knew we were in for rough sledding.

The situation became much more difficult when ERCOT ordered the power company to dramatically reduce usage with rolling blackouts to prevent the Texas power grid from total failure. Under these conditions, If your power was out in Dallas-Fort Worth, it stayed out for days — or even a week.

That meant no heat, no lights, no indoor cooking, no refrigeration, no TV, and for many, no drinkable or even running water. Your food, supplies, and hope were probably running low by the end of the week. Cell and internet service was disrupted, so you had few ways to reach out to kind-hearted friends or a family member with power who could take you in.

From Power Crisis to Water and Heat Crisis

The power crisis quickly became a serious water crisis. Pipes froze and burst in Dallas-Fort Worth homes and businesses. Power outages within the water system contributed to plummeting water pressure.

Millions across Texas were advised to boil water before consuming it, including many in Fort Worth and the nearby towns it supplies. Without power, boiling water wasn’t easy. Unless you had stockpiled bottled water, you were out of luck.

As you emerged from the Texas Power Crisis, you asked yourself “How could this disaster happen in Texas?” But, just a few months later during a mid-June heat wave, 12,000 megawatts of power generation went offline unexpectedly — enough to power 2.4 million homes on a hot summer day.

When officials told you to turn your thermostat up to 78 degrees or once again risk blackouts, you and many of your fellow Texans decided it was time to become truly energy independent — with uninterrupted power from a Canter Power Systems automatic, whole home backup generator.
