With the exception of the times when the power goes out, and the times when we pay our electric bill, we tend to take it for granted that we can always flick a light switch and turn our lights on and off. Arkansas is no stranger to seasonal weather extremes, and frequent outages are a reality that we have to deal with a few times a year. But for some people, a power outage is a lot more than an inconvenience: imagine what would happen if a hospital lost its ability to keep life-saving medical equipment turned on, or if a police station lost its power during the middle of a major emergency!

The good news is that when Mother Nature does her worst, you never have to stumble around in the dark again! When it comes to electricians in Little Rock, our team at Gary Houston Electric has consistently been selected as central Arkansas’ top residential and commercial electrical contractor, and we also carry the full line of Kohler emergency generators! Kohler has been in continuous operation since 1920, and continues to be the leading choice for homes and businesses who can’t afford to be without power.

Kohler carries many sizes of generators, and we will work with you to select the product that is right for your home or business. The generator will be connected to your electrical systems, and will automatically start in a matter of seconds when it detects an outage. You might have to reset the clock on your microwave oven and coffee maker, but will otherwise be able to ride out severe weather in comfort and safely.

Kohler emergency generators are not the same noisy gasoline powered generators that you’ve had to deal with at the RV park or tailgate party. They operate silently and safely on natural gas. They’re also very easy to maintain. All that you have to do is run them for a few minutes once a month to make sure that they’ll be ready when you need them, and if you ever encounter a service issue, we’re always a mouse click or phone call away!
