Restaurant & Food-Service Backup Generator Fishers, IN

A single outage can spoil a walk-in of inventory and close your doors for the day. Standby power keeps a restaurant cooking, selling, and open. We install brand-agnostic natural-gas standby that keeps refrigeration, the cook line, lighting, and POS running.

In a restaurant, the power going out isn't an inconvenience, it's a walk-in of spoiled inventory and a closed sign on the door.

Refrigeration, the cook line, hood, lighting, and point-of-sale all stop the moment the grid does, and Central Indiana's multi-day storm outages can turn one bad night into thousands in lost product and sales. We install brand-agnostic natural-gas standby power, typically in the 30-60 kW band, sized by a commercial load calculation to keep the systems that keep you open running automatically, within seconds of an outage.

01
Engineering
& why

Sized to keep you open, then kept compliant

For food service the biggest exposure is refrigeration, a walk-in of spoiled product plus a health-code problem, so we size standby power to hold refrigeration, the cook line, hood, lighting, and point-of-sale, no more and no less than what has to stay on. We run a commercial load calc and size the unit to that, brand-agnostic in the 30-60 kW natural-gas band.

Commercial standby is only compliant if it is tested, so we keep it that way with NFPA 110 maintenance and, where required, load-bank testing with documentation, so your system stays inspection-ready.

02
Local notes

Wired to code, sized for Central Indiana storms

The system is wired as an optional standby system under the National Electrical Code, with transfer equipment sized to your service. In Fishers and Noblesville that's Duke Energy and AES Indiana territory; in Anderson it's Anderson Municipal Light & Power, and the multi-day outages here are exactly what turns a storm into a spoiled walk-in.

FAQ
Will it keep my cooler and POS running?

Yes, that's the point. We size standby power to keep refrigeration, lighting, and point-of-sale up so a single outage doesn't spoil inventory or stop sales.

What size does a restaurant need?

It depends what must stay on: walk-ins, cook line, HVAC, POS. Most fit a natural-gas unit in the 30-60 kW band; we confirm with a commercial load calc.

How fast does it restore power?

Within seconds. The transfer switch senses the outage and moves the building to generator power fast enough that refrigeration never warms and service barely pauses.

Can you keep it NFPA 110 compliant?

Yes. We provide NFPA 110 maintenance and, where required, load-bank testing with documentation, so your system stays inspection-ready.

External

Every standby system is installed under the National Electrical Code as an optional standby system, with transfer equipment and overcurrent protection sized to spec and to permit.

The trust claim that counts

Factory-authorized, so your warranty stays intact.

We are a factory-authorized Generac dealer, and that matters for one concrete reason: only an authorized service dealer can perform warranty repairs on a Generac. Work by an uncertified technician can put your coverage at risk. So whether we install your unit or take over one someone else did, our service keeps you warranty-compliant.

  • Authorized for sales, installation, and warranty-compliant service
  • Take-over service for orphaned Generac units, coverage intact
  • We answer the phone, and we service what we install

Where we work

We're based in Fishers and cover the surrounding Hamilton and Madison County area. When storms take the power out it is usually a Duke Energy or AES Indiana outage; over in Anderson it is Anderson Municipal Light & Power. Pick your city for the local permitting and utility details.
