Why Rochester Trusts Midwest Electric to Provide Reliable Automatic Backup Power


Power Solutions for Year-Round Weather Concerns

Rochester, MN, is right where warm Gulf of Mexico winds converge with cooler Canadian air. This combination affects our region’s weather over the summer months, inviting heavy rain, flooding, above-average winds, tornadoes and some humidity. And based upon where we are in Minnesota, below-freezing winters see a couple feet of snow and ice-covered power lines after a major storm.

No matter the season, no matter the forecast, these incidents can disable the electrical grid or damage a transformer, leaving your home or business without power for days, if not a week or more. Without a backup plan, you won’t have a way to stay warm, your food supply starts to dwindle, and you’re unable to operate vital business equipment.

To face Rochester’s extreme weather with a degree of predictability, turn to Midwest Electric and Generator. We’ve spent the past 20-plus years installing and servicing automatic generators throughout the Upper Midwest, providing residents and business owners with weather-resistant backup power systems plus on-call service, technical experience and 24/7 monitoring.

24/7 Generator Service in Rochester

Fluctuating weather affects your property at all levels, and your backup generator is no exception. Based on the season, your system risks rusted and corroded parts from water exposure, or cracked belts or a dead battery from months of below-freezing temperatures.

These factors contribute to less-optimal performance: overheating, shutting down or even a short circuit. Midwest Electric recognizes this and couples our selection of generators with round-the-clock service, some of the industry’s best warranties and monitoring through your phone.

Supporting our work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, our local in-house team of experts will come to you: We’re there when you request an annual tune-up and to address performance issues of all kinds. Monitoring takes your security to the next level: Know when your generator requires attention to promptly schedule a service appointment.

Your neighbors or fellow business owners might boast of their portable generators, but you see them refilling fuel and rationing power across appliances. What if you could have standby power without that hassle?

Midwest Electric makes that possible. Step into our showroom to visualize that and compare features through the expertise of our factory-trained sales technicians: They’ll introduce you to our hand-selected array of automatic generators from Briggs & Stratton, Kohler, Generac and Winco, including whole-home and commercial solutions built to withstand harsh Minnesota winters and more extreme weather.

We take a custom approach with each client. That entails taking measurements of your property, so that our installation team knows exactly what to do when they arrive. In many cases, this level of detail allows us to complete your job in just one day.
