Why Hire a Generator for your Event?


When organising an outdoor event, it’s important to consider your power requirements. You may be in an open field with zero on site facilities or you might be on an event site that has limited access to power. Either way, hiring a generator is a great option to power your event, which you will need if you have a stage, lighting or stall holders.


Here are five reasons why hiring a generator is the best option for your event.

Safe Installation and Use


Hiring rather than purchasing means that your generator comes with a specialist member of staff who knows and has been trained in installing and running the machinery safely. Using a generator comes with a lot of requirements that require training and knowledge. Although they are designed for the safest possible use, they still work with highly flammable liquids and generate electricity. It’s best to hire a generator (link) through a reputable company such as Koncept Productions, who has experience and knowledge in dealing with this equipment and can operate it safely.


Reliability



Hiring a generator ensures that your event site is powered day and night, for as long as you need. They are great for backup usage if outages happen on your event site. It’s not uncommon for permanent fixtures to be overloaded, so having a generator specifically tailored to your needs will ensure that power always reaches the places it needs to, so your event is seamless.


Cost-Effective


Especially if your event site is only temporary you don’t want to be spending out thousands on getting electricity to it. A generator is relatively low maintenance compared to permanent installations and hiring it for the time period you need, will work out cheaper, including with the refuelling. Purchasing one may also seem like a good idea but as mentioned above you will need to hire a member of staff to be trained to deal with it, including keeping it refuelled, let alone the cost of maintaining the machine in between events.


Expert Service


There is a lot to be said about trusting your equipment and your contractors. During a busy event the last thing you need is the power going down and having to find a solution under pressure. When you hire a contractor, the responsibility and the equipment is down to the experts. You can run the event in the knowledge that your contractor has it all under control and will ensure problems don’t arise or fix any problems that do.
