Generator Service in Conroe, TX

Montgomery County homeowners know how outages go: a storm comes through, a tree takes a line down, and the house is dark for far longer than expected. Wired Electrical & Generators is a Generac Prestige Dealer and a family-owned, licensed and insured electrical company. Our showroom and shop are at 13910 Alice Road in Tomball, about 40 minutes from Conroe (an estimate), and we have served Greater Houston since 2005.

We repair and maintain Generac and other brands, including Kohler, whether or not we installed the unit. If your generator will not start, shows a fault code, or has not been looked at in a year or more, call (713) 467-1125. We will tell you what to check safely and what needs a technician.

Lake houses that sit empty

Around Lake Conroe, a number of homes are used on weekends or for part of the year. A generator on a house nobody visits for weeks does not get exercised and nobody notices a fault light. The battery runs down, fuel ages, and a small problem grows. If this sounds like your property, ask us about remote monitoring through our Shield Protection plans, so a fault can show up before the next outage. A regular maintenance visit is just as useful. We run the unit under load, read the controller history and fix what the last outage left behind.

Humidity, wet air and the enclosure

Houses near a large lake and under tall trees live in damp air. That is hard on an outdoor generator cabinet: moisture can corrode terminals and the battery connections, and water can pool around the base after rain. When we service a unit in this setting, we pay extra attention to battery terminals, the enclosure seals and the ground around the pad. If water collects near the generator after storms, tell us. Sometimes a few shovels of grading or a relocated downspout solves a problem that would otherwise keep recurring.

Units in town and near Loop 336

Inside Conroe and in the neighborhoods around the loop, generators generally sit beside the house on a slab, close to fences and air conditioners. Here the usual trouble is clearance and clutter. Mulch, stored items and overgrown shrubs against the cabinet restrict airflow and hold moisture. A service visit includes oil and filters, spark plugs, the battery, a test run and a look at the transfer switch operation. We also read the controller history for faults that appeared during past outages and went unnoticed.

Before you call us

If the generator did not start in an outage, check the controller, which should read AUTO, check that the unit's breaker is on and that fuel is available. Take a photo of any fault code. Leave the transfer switch and the panel closed. When you call, give us the brand, model and serial number if you can find them on the data plate. Those details help us bring the right parts to a Conroe address on the first trip. If an older unit keeps failing, we will also tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
