How A Power Outage Can Disrupt Businesses
Emergency generator hire in London
A power outage can disrupt the normal running of a business in so many ways – but our emergency generator hire is there to get things back up and running.
Heating
If there is a loss of power to your property, you may not be able to heat it as effectively. Things like patio heaters will stop working if you suffer a power cut, and electric fireplaces will also be affected. You don’t need us to tell you that, right now, there’s never been more of a need to keep your business premises warm. After all, customers aren’t going to hang around for long if your commercial premises is freezing cold!
Refrigeration
If you lose power, then any perishable products that you have on-site could be in danger of deteriorating. This could be anything from food and drink to medicines. Providing that the fridge or freezer is kept closed, you will have some time to secure an emergency power supply before those products are unfit for use or consumption.
Lighting
Lighting will also be affected in the event of a power outage. Adequate lighting is a matter of public safety, especially during the winter months when we have much less daylight to work with. If you have any kind of festive lighting to draw in customers, that will be affected too. So, it’s important to secure a reliable power supply.
Security
If you have electric gates and a security system in place, then a power cut will affect that. This could affect your business in two ways. The first is preventing legitimate access by staff and customers. The second is making your business premises more vulnerable to criminals. With no way of monitoring who is coming in and out, those with malicious intent will do all that they can to break in.
Internet connection
Finally, your internet connection will be affected. This will prevent you from being able to field customer inquiries, contact business partners, and being able to update your social media. In today’s online age, having no internet connection is tantamount to being invisible – even if it is just for a few days. With the busiest time of year for many businesses upon us, there’s never been a worse time to be cut off.
