Reliable Electrical and Generator Services for Greenville and the Midlands Region
What Is an Electrical Emergency
Anything producing heat, smoke, or odor at electrical equipment is an emergency, full stop, and anything sparking beyond the small static snap of a plug deserves the same treatment. Whole-home or half-home power loss, a wet electrical panel, and a breaker that will not stay on all qualify. A single dead outlet or a tripped GFCI is urgent to the person it inconveniences but is a standard call, and the dispatcher will say so honestly rather than bill routine work at emergency footing.

Is Carolina Heating Service available for electrical emergencies around the clock?
You can reach the team any hour through phone, online scheduling, and 24/7 website chat, and emergency calls are prioritized with scheduling that extends across evenings, weekends, and holidays. The dispatcher confirms the response window for your specific situation when you call.
My standby generator did not start during an outage. What should I check before calling?
Check that the unit’s control is set to auto rather than off, and that its breaker and fuel supply are on. If those are correct and it still will not start or transfer, stop there and call; internal faults are not a homeowner repair, and running attempts can worsen some failures.
Half my house has power and half does not. Is that an emergency?
Treat it as one. Partial power loss often means a failed connection at the panel or the service entrance, and failed connections generate heat. It is worth an urgent call rather than waiting to see whether it resolves.
What should I do if an outlet or the panel smells like burning?
Shut off the breaker feeding the area, or the main if you cannot identify it, keep distance from the equipment, and call. If there is visible smoke or flame, leave and call 911 first. A burning smell at electrical equipment is the one symptom that should never be monitored overnight.
Do you repair generators you did not install?
Yes. Technicians service standby units regardless of who installed them, including diagnosing failed transfers and units that stopped self-testing. If the unit is beyond economic repair, you get that assessment straight, with replacement options priced.
