We’ve got another Arkansas Winter bearing down on us, and power outages are inevitable when temperatures drop, especially when we get a significant snow or ice event.
Emergency Preparedness
When you invest in a Kohler generator, you’ll never be in the dark again!
There are many places in the world that are well known for their extreme weather during certain times of year. Whether you’re dealing with Nor’ easters in New England, Monsoons in Mumbai, or Tsunamis in Tokyo, there are always certain times of year when the locals watch the weather forecast with nervousness, and wonder if they’re going to be lucky enough to once again escape Mother Nature’s wrath.
When Mother Nature does her worst, you can count on Kohler!
Summer is winding down, and it won’t be long before we’re in the middle of another brutal winter. As any Arkansan will tell you, we live in a place that is certainly no stranger to extreme weather, and with it comes the inevitable power outages. They’re certainly inconvenient for everyone, but for the elderly and for people who need power for medical equipment, they can sometimes be a matter of life and death!
When Nature Does Her Worst, Call Gary Houston First!
In Arkansas, Mother Nature can be unforgiving at times. The Natural State is no stranger to tornadoes, tropical storms, blizzards, heatwaves, and droughts. If there’s a weather extreme to be had, we get it sooner or later.
Where Will You Be When the Lights go Out?
Electricity has only been widely available for a little over a century, but it’s truly amazing how much that we’ve come to depend on it for our safety, comfort, and recreation. It’s equally amazing how inconvenient that most of us find it when the power goes out, even if only for a couple of hours. And for some people, a power outage is a great deal more serious, particularly if they need to operate life-saving medical equipment.
Don’t Let Storm Season Leave You in the Dark
All Arkansans know that during the spring, a beautiful sunny day can suddenly turn into a raging flash flood, and in some cases, much worse. Fortunately, most of us have enough experience with severe weather to take the appropriate safety precautions to protect our families when disaster strikes. But are you sure that you’re doing enough?
For True Peace of Mind, Think Kohler!
There are few things more inconvenient than power outages, but in some cases, the stakes are even higher. Imagine what would happen if a hospital or police department lost power, or if your favorite grandparent couldn’t run his or her life-saving medical equipment. That’s why Kohler has been keeping its customers out of the dark since 1920.
Don’t Let Old Man Winter Leave You out in the Cold!
During 2016, Arkansas has experienced one of the warmest fall seasons in history, but don’t let that fool you! Winter is just a few short weeks away, and over the past several years we’ve been no stranger to extreme winter weather. We’ve received multiple federal emergency declarations during the past decade, and almost every year, tens of thousands of homes and businesses experience lengthy power outages due to winter weather. You know that winter is coming: are you prepared?
How a Kohler Generator Can Save Your Business
No matter what time of year that it is, you can count on Arkansas weather to quickly switch from one extreme to another, frequently resulting in widespread power outages. Power outages are inconvenient for everyone, but for some businesses, they can create serious problems. Imagine what would happen if a healthcare facility couldn’t run life-saving medical equipment, or if a police department’s switchboard went down!
Kohler Generators: When only the best will do!
At the end of World War I, the demand for electricity on farms led a group of innovative cast iron workers with no background in generators or engines to develop the revolutionary Kohler Automatic Power & Light “power plant” in 1920. The company has been remained in continuous operation ever since, and has developed a reputation for manufacturing the most reliable and durable generators on the market.
