Preparedness is Better Together
When we talk about “surviving” a storm here in New Hampshire, we often think in isolation. We think about our pantry, our flashlights, and our generator.
But if you look back at the major weather events of the last few years, like those heavy wet snows that dragged down pines across the Seacoast or the ice storms that left us waiting on Eversource and Unitil trucks for days, you’ll remember that the defining moments weren’t solitary. They were communal. It was checking on the elderly neighbor across the street when the temperatures dropped. It was sharing a hot pot of coffee with the family whose power was out. It was moving a fallen branch off a shared fence.
At Generator Supercenter of New Hampshire, we believe that The Standby Power People aren’t just people who own generators. They are the people who keep the community calm when the lights go out.
Introducing the Community Survival Guide
To support this mission, we are proud to launch the 2026 Community Survival Guide.
This isn’t just a brochure about engine specs. It is a practical, field-tested workbook designed to keep your household—and your block—safe and organized. Inside, you will find:
- The “Calm Corner” Plan: Strategies for keeping kids and pets safe (and distracted) during scary weather.
- The Neighbor Check-In Sheet: A template for organizing contact info for elderly or vulnerable neighbors who may need help.
- The Power Priority Chart: A guide to managing your home’s energy load so you can share resources (like charging phones) with others.
Be the “Standby House” on Your Block
If you have a Generac installed, your home is different. When the grid fails, your home becomes a beacon. We call this being “The Standby House.”
It means your doors stay open. It means you are the place where a neighbor can come to nebulize their asthma medication or simply warm up. The Community Survival Guide helps you organize that role, providing safety tips for hosting and sharing your power responsibly.
