Home Backup Power
Our home backup power systems provide dependable electricity during outages caused by weather, utility shutoffs, or unexpected grid failures. These backup power systems ensure that your home or business stays powered, protected, and comfortable even if the power goes out.
A home backup power system activates when the grid goes down, delivering continuous energy to your most important systems and appliances until normal power is restored.
With over 20 years of experience in energy solutions, Pacific Sun takes a customized approach to every installation. Before we begin, our specialists carefully assess your electrical needs, critical loads, and property layout to design a backup system that performs exactly as you need it to when you need it most.
Installed with expert craftsmanship and backed by dedicated customer support, our home backup power systems provide peace of mind you can count on.
When the power goes out, Pacific Sun Technologies keeps you on.

Portable Generator
Paired with Critical Load Center
Simple, Flexible Backup Power for Essential Circuits.
One of the most affordable and reliable backup power solutions we offer is a portable generator connected directly to a dedicated critical-load center.
This system allows a portable generator to safely power essential circuits such as your refrigerator, lighting, internet, garage door, or medical equipment when utility power goes down.
You simply manually throw a switch transferring the source of power from the grid to your portable generator.
Plug one end of your power cord into the generator and the other to a dedicated wall socket. Start your generator and relax.
This is a completely stand alone system and does not tie into an existing solar and/or battery system.
Hybrid Power Backup
Solar, battery, and generator power integration
A smart, clean, efficient home energy backup system.
Enjoy seamless, automatic backup power with the FranklinWH aPower2, an intelligent system that integrates solar, battery, and generator power for complete home energy reliability.
Designed to switch over instantly during outages, it prioritizes solar and battery use before engaging the generator. This reduces fuel consumption and extends equipment life.
Quiet, clean, and efficient, the FranklinWH system provides true hybrid backup, not just a standalone battery or generator.
It intelligently manages your home’s energy flow, optimizes solar production, and ensures you have uninterrupted power and peace of mind whether you’re on or off the grid.
This system is often designed with solar, but can also operate alone as a battery back up with or without a generator.
Whole Home Generator
Automatic Standby Power
Whole home backup power that is fueled automatically by a standalone generator.
A Generac residential standby generator automatically restores power to your entire home within seconds of an outage.
This generator keeps your lights on, HVAC running, and essential appliances operating without any interruption.
Built for reliability and convenience, Generac generators provide automatic 24/7 protection from storms, blackouts, and planned power shutoffs.
The Generac generator doesn't rely on stored energy. Instead, it utilizes natural gas or propane as fuel, with no need for cords or manual startup.
Enjoy peace of mind knowing your home stays powered, safe, and connected year-round.

Home Energy Profile
The first task is to review your Energy Profile.
We start by understanding how the home actually uses electricity, we analyze 12 months of utility usage, peak summer vs winter demand, your current rate schedule, existing solar production (if installed), battery storage (if present) and future plans such as EVs or other modifications to your home that will increase or decrease your demand.
This is how we determine options that are based on your actual needs and desires.

Design, Quote & Permits
Now we can choose the right backup power solution based on cost vs reliability. After the load analysis and site evaluation, we match the homeowner to a solution, not a product.
A properly designed backup system is not about generator size alone, it's about matching power production, load demand, and homeowner priorities.
We provide you with a detailed quote of the options available, and take care of any permits that may be necessary for site installation.
