Experience

Experience

Our diesel engineers and technicians are among the most skilled in the industry with over 70 years of combined professional experience.

Credibility

Credibility

Many companies in the industry like to represent themselves as experts in diesel engines and generators, only for customers to discover later that they are in fact dealing with a broker who represents inventory they don’t own. At Generator Source, we are confident in the quality of our equipment because we personally inspect and test every generator we sell.

Genuine Parts

Genuine Parts

The old adage, “You get what you pay for.” still rings true. At Generator Source we have always believed in using genuine parts; no knockoffs. Generic parts are often unreliable as there is less knowledge about where they were manufactured and the quality behind them. We only stand behind products we personally believe in, and quality OEM parts.

Fully Customizable

Fully Customizable

One size does not fit all in the generator industry. Getting the right fit with your generator installation is crucial for the long-term performance and reliability of the unit. We believe in doing the job right the first time so we have developed a fully-capable fabrication department to customize any generator to meet your facility’s needs.
