Generator Maintenance and Monitoring
Annual Kohler maintenance and monitoring by Manatee County's Titanium Dealer.
Kohler Generator Maintenance in Manatee County
Florida doesn't give advance notice before the power goes out. Your generator needs to be ready before the storm — not after. Air & Energy is Manatee County's Kohler Titanium Dealer, and we keep your standby generator running at peak performance year-round through comprehensive maintenance, service, and remote monitoring.
Kohler recommends annual maintenance for all standby generators — and every 200 hours of run time for units used frequently. In Florida, where hurricane season runs June through November, we recommend scheduling your Kohler generator maintenance each spring, before peak storm season.
What's Included in a Maintenance Visit
Our certified technicians perform a comprehensive Kohler generator service that covers everything the factory recommends:
- Oil & filter change — fresh oil keeps the engine protected during extended run times
- Air filter inspection & replacement — clean airflow means efficient combustion
- Spark plug inspection — ensures reliable ignition when you need it most
- Battery load test — a dead battery is the #1 reason generators fail to start
- Coolant level check — critical for liquid-cooled systems
- Transfer switch test — confirms automatic switchover is working correctly
- Automatic start test — simulates an outage to verify full operation
- Fuel system inspection — checks for leaks, blockages, and proper fuel delivery
- Control board diagnostics — reads fault codes and clears resolved issues
- Full operational run test — puts the generator under load to confirm peak performance
Every maintenance visit ends with a written report so you know exactly what was checked, what was found, and what — if anything — needs attention.
Schedule Your Generator Maintenance
Kohler Diagnotics Plus Remote Monitoring - Powered by Cellular Connectivity

- Real-time status monitoring — see whether your generator is ready, running, or needs attention
- Automatic outage alerts — get notified the moment utility power fails and your generator activates
- Exercise cycle management — schedule and track your generator's weekly self-test remotely
- Fault code alerts — receive instant notifications if your generator detects a problem
- Run history and logs — review performance data and runtime history anytime
- Remote access from any device — smartphone, tablet, or desktop
