Key Winter Tip: Service and Fuel Your Generator Before the Storm

One of the most important winter storm readiness tips is simple: ensure your generator is properly serviced and fueled before the storm arrives. Waiting until the weather is already deteriorating can make preparation difficult—or unsafe.

A pre-storm check helps improve reliability during outages and can reduce the chance of problems when you need backup power the most.

Why Generator Readiness Matters During Winter Weather

Winter storms can bring icing, heavy precipitation, strong wind, and falling limbs—any of which can disrupt power. If your home depends on backup power for heat, refrigeration, medical devices, or basic household safety, planning ahead is critical.

  • Confirm your generator is in working order before severe weather hits
  • Make sure fuel levels are adequate and safely stored
  • Plan for safe operation and proper ventilation (never operate indoors)
  • Know how to start, switch, and monitor your system in an outage
