June 11, 2013: TAG Mechanical Sees Big Increase in Generator Inquiries
Contractor Says Customers Seek to Avoid Power Outages Due to Extreme Weather
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Mechanical contracting firm TAG Mechanical Systems Inc. reports that it has seen a 25 percent increase in the number of inquiries regarding generators for homes and businesses during the first week of the 2013 hurricane season.
“I’m not surprised given that more than two million people in the state of New York were affected by the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, and those affected had to deal with an average of 103 hours without power,” said Court Rutherford, TAG Mechanical’s energy manager.
