Vermilion is a charming lakefront community straddling the Erie-Lorain county border, known for its historic harbor district and scenic Lake Erie shoreline. The city's direct Lake Erie exposure makes it particularly vulnerable to lake-effect snow events and high winds, and extended outages during major winter weather events are a recurring challenge for Vermilion residents. Backup Power Solutions installs Generac, Kohler, and Cummins standby generators throughout Vermilion and surrounding Erie and Lorain County communities.
We serve Vermilion, Vermilion Township, Huron, and surrounding Erie-Lorain County border communities. Our technicians handle all Erie County and Lorain County Building Department permits and FirstEnergy (CEI) interconnection paperwork from start to finish.
Vermilion's lakefront properties are particularly vulnerable to sump pump failure during storm surge and heavy rain events. A standby generator ensures your sump pump never stops running during an outage. We factor sump pump load into every generator sizing calculation at no extra charge.
Backup Power Solutions serves all of Northeast Ohio. Our licensed technicians travel throughout Summit, Stark, Portage, Medina, Lorain, Cuyahoga, Lake, Geauga, Mahoning, and Trumbull counties.
