Why Elk River Counts on Midwest Electric for Reliable Backup Power


Power for All Weather Events in Elk River

In Elk River, it’s not uncommon for a windstorm to bring down electrical networks. There’s also a possibility that during a major rainstorm, the Elk and Mississippi Rivers may flood, resulting in widespread damage and days without power. And considering where we are in Minnesota, snow and ice can halt all activity in our community.

All of these scenarios potentially leave you isolated, with limited resources: no way to store your food, no temperature control for your home and no way to keep your business operating.

Rather than count your losses, take action by requesting a backup power solution from Midwest Electric and Generator. For over two decades, we have been Elk River’s go-to automatic generator installer, coupling a brand-name selection with knowledgeable service, round-the-clock maintenance and performance monitoring.

24/7 Generator Service in Elk River

While automatic generators turn on when the power goes out, regular exposure to extreme weather can impact performance. Where we are, hail can dent the generator’s exterior, while flash floods increase the risk of water damage. This more pervasive and invasive concern can rust parts, cause moisture and mold to accumulate or alter how electricity flows. 

Routine generator maintenance catches these issues before you catch yourself without power during a major weather event. With your call, our local team of certified experts will promptly drive over, no matter if you need us to look into an overheating generator or inspect it ahead of storm season. Once there, we run diagnostics, are ready to perform repairs and test our work.

We stand by our thorough approach with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Taking that up a level, we recommend monitoring to identify issues when they appear, and offer some of the industry’s best warranties.

Wait it out or hope you’re not affected doesn’t make for a secure storm preparation plan. You could be left without food, heat or lifesaving medical equipment for days. And for your business, no electricity means no service and no income.

But as you hear hail hitting the roof or watch a second foot of snow accumulate, you know your generator from Midwest Electric provides your plan B when your region is left without power.

We present an array of residential and commercial solutions from Briggs & Stratton, Kohler, Generac and Winco in our showroom, with models selected for their ability to withstand Minnesota’s extreme weather. Our factory-trained sales staff will guide you toward the best fit and features, and when it’s time to install your generator, our certified in-house professionals already have a custom plan drawn up. No guesswork often means that we break ground, wire and test your system in just one day.
