90-year-old Homeowner relying on continuous oxygen support
Location Served
Memphis, TN
Shelby County | Bartlett | Cordova
Service Provided
• Standby generator inspection
• Emergency generator service and system restart
• Ongoing reliability support and maintenance
The Problem:
Critical medical reliance on a poorly maintained generator.
The homeowner depended on a standby generator to power essential medical equipment, as she is on oxygen full time and lives alone with no nearby family support. Her neighborhood experiences frequent power outages, making the generator a critical component of her daily safety. Unfortunately, the generator had been installed by a previous provider who did not explain maintenance requirements or provide ongoing service guidance.
Years later, the client learned through a friend that generators require routine maintenance. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the unit had been operating with no oil - placing the generator at risk of failure and leaving the homeowner vulnerable during an outage. Additionally, without a trusted service provider, even small disruptions posed serious risks, as demonstrated when the generator was accidentally shut off by lawn equipment.
The Solution
Immediate maintenance, emergency response, and ongoing support.
Our team responded quickly to assess the generator’s condition and perform immediate maintenance. We restored proper oil levels, inspected critical components, and verified the system was operating safely and reliably. Beyond standard service, we took time to explain maintenance needs to the homeowner in clear, simple terms, ensuring she understood how to keep the system protected moving forward.
When the generator was later shut off late at night due to an accidental impact, our team returned promptly to restart the unit, confirm proper operation, and ensure the homeowner’s power - and medical support - was fully restored without delay.
The Result
Restored reliability, safety, and peace of mind.
The generator was brought back into safe, dependable working condition and is now properly maintained to perform during outages. More importantly, the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing she had a reliable, local service provider who understood the urgency of her situation and was willing to respond at any hour. The situation shifted from uncertainty and risk to confidence and security, ensuring uninterrupted power when it matters most.
