Q: The Risks of using Non-Genuine Parts (Link on Parts Page)
A:
- Non-genuine parts are designed using reverse engineering (copying an original component). Manufacturers of non-genuine parts do not have access to original technical data and drawings so these parts are designed and manufactured in isolation from the rest of the engine.
- In most cases, the material specification is compromised , so there is a real risk that these parts will not fit correctly. This can result in rapid wear, inferior performance, poor reliability, higher oil and fuel consumption and even component damage or engine failure.
- Suppliers of non-genuine parts will only provide a small range of the high-volume part numbers. They will not support your complete engine range.
- Non-genuine parts will not be covered by the manufacturers’ extensive warranty.
Q: Why should a homeowner install an automatic emergency generator system? (Link on Generator Residential Page)
A: First and foremost, for peace of mind. Power failures can occur from severe weather, utility blackouts or downed power lines. Many things can go wrong before that power is restored, including food spoiling.

Q: What can the emergency generator power? (Link on Generator Residential Page)
A: Essential devices within the home, i.e. the furnace, refrigerator, sump pump, freezer, security system, well pump, medical support items, etc.
Q: What are some features of an automatic emergency power system? (Link on main Generator Page)
A: It comes on automatically with an electrical failure, powering essential devices within the home. Natural gas can be piped directly to the generator, eliminating the need for periodic refueling during the outage. Other fuel options are propane gas or diesel fuel. The generator is permanently installed outside the home in a lockable, heavy-duty, sound deadened enclosure. The transfer switch automatically exercises the system for each week to keep the generator operating at peak efficiency.

Q: How important is Emergency Power to your Home? (Link on Generator Residential Page)
A: Electricity is the lifeblood of your home. A power outage that lasts for even a few hours can be a terrible inconvenience. An extended weather related power failure accompanied by storms or severe temperatures could cause flooded basements, frozen pipes, structural damage and financial hardship. Pumps, furnaces, air conditioners, security systems, lights, stoves, water heaters and refrigerators all depend on electricity to keep your home safe, secure and running smoothly.
The average American home may depend on electricity for more than one hundred electrical devices. Even a short power interruption can cause discomfort and inconvenience.
The Electric Power Research Institute reports that lightning and faults (short circuits) cause approximately 90 percent of all power interruptions on power distribution lines. These faults can be caused by severe weather, natural disasters, small animals or vehicles accidentally downing power poles and lines. Destructive high winds, ice and snow compound the severity of any power interruption and can lead to property loss or, worse yet, personal injury.
However, if you own an Emergency Power System supplied and planned by Kraft Power Corporation, you can relax; it protects life and property by supplying vital electricity when you need it most!

Q: Why is an Emergency Generator system so important for my business? (Link on Generator Small Business and On-Site Power Systems Page)
A: Your business and its operations depend heavily on a steady supply of electricity. Thus every power outage puts your company and equipment at risk!
An Emergency Power System from Kraft Power provides you with a reliable power solution that will help you endure power outages or utility breakdowns, regardless of the duration.
- Utility reliability: As the strain on the power grid increases and power quality and reliability suffer, utilities are increasingly turning to engine generators in order to satisfy their customers’ essential power needs.
- Severe weather outages: Lightning, hurricanes and ice storms cause outages lasting many hours longer than the typical battery standby system will support.
- Environmental concerns: In environments requiring air conditioning, generators eliminate the concern of thermal shutdown during a loss of utility power.
- Extended protection: Eight hour backup requirements demand sizable, expensive battery plants with life spans in the outside plant (OSP) as short as 2 – 4 years.
