Regular Maintenance and Repair Helps You Stay Covered
To ensure that your generator is there for your business or organization during an outage, it is best to have your generator routinely checked and serviced. At AMEX Electric, we suggest you create a maintenance schedule that is tailored to your generator type and the service requirements the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) outlined.
It is best practice to perform certain smaller tasks on a weekly basis, larger check-ins from month to month, and in-depth service annually or whenever significant problems arise.
Generator Maintenance Guidelines
Every week you might consider:
- Inspecting your generator to make sure everything looks in place and to check for any fuel leaks
- Running your generator for a half hour, especially if you are not regularly using it
On a monthly basis, you could:
- Inspect aspects of the generator such as its exhaust, ventilation system, starter plugs, and its battery and wiring
- Run your generator for a period that exceeds your weekly half hour
- Thoroughly clean your generator and the areas around it
Annually, it is best to:
- Have the generator’s oil changed
- Perform load tests to make sure your generator can provide the power you would need in an emergency without issue
- Have a professional complete a total inspection of your generator’s electrical system
Performing regular maintenance tasks combined with seeking our Dallas professional generator services can give you peace of mind that during an outage or shortage your property will have the power it needs.

How long is the life expectancy of a commercial generator?
Life expectancy of a commercial generator is typically between 10,000 and 20,000 hours. This range is based on the type of fuel used and how often it's maintained. Diesel generators last longer than gas-powered ones, while natural gas generators have the longest life expectancy. Regular maintenance such as changing filters, topping off oil levels and cleaning air intake systems can ensure your generator runs for the longest possible life expectancy. Properly sizing the generator for the load size and ensuring ventilation is adequate are also important factors to consider when selecting and installing a commercial generator. With proper use and maintenance, it's possible to extend the life of your commercial generator beyond its expected lifespan.
How to Pick the Right Generator
Generators are as unique as the businesses that need them. Choosing a generator that is right for your facility is key for your property’s ability to maintain its operations when electricity from external suppliers is unavailable or in limited supply.
Generally, industrial and commercial buildings need 3-phase generators, which can provide the higher power capacity that larger buildings with multiple power needs require. Beyond the generator’s phase, there are two important considerations you will need to make.
These include:
- Your property’s amperage requirements. Specifically, you need to determine the voltage your building needs as a whole; the maximum amperage your equipment and appliances need to operate; in industrial settings, the startup amperage that any of your motors require; and the electrical frequency your utilities use. All these considerations can require specialized knowledge and experience, which is why it is best to consult a trusted electrician.
- Your property’s voltage requirements. Too much voltage can be dangerous for the buildings and equipment that generators power, while too little voltage will fail to keep a building going. As a result, using the help of a technician is best when determining the voltage you will need from your generator.
There are many other complex details that feature in the above considerations. There are also several generator brands and fuels generators rely on to work, which are additional pieces of information you will need to sort through. To allow you to feel confident that you will find the right generator for your property, seek our experienced counsel. Our team can help you choose a generator and install it properly so that you get exactly what you need.
