Seniors: Be Prepared for Power Outages
For Seniors, losing power can be more than a minor inconvenience. Serious power outages can last for days. It’s especially critical for those who are older to be prepared for emergencies, when electricity is required to power the devices that keep them safe. In these scenarios, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” By using an X Generator, households can prevent an uncomfortable situation from becoming dangerous.
The X Generator has an emergency power supply lasting up to 7 days. It’s the reliable source of energy you can count on when disaster strikes by keeping vital home appliances and devices running without interruption. It also powers critical medical devices, power tools, and communication devices.
These appliances and devices are essential for Seniors, for the following reasons:
- Climate Control
As we get older, our bodies aren’t as easily able to adjust to extreme temperatures. Keeping fans and heaters running can regulate the climate and minimize health risks associated with heat and cold.
- Food Preparation
Without refrigeration, food spoils. Access to food that requires refrigeration ensures that there’s no disruption in meeting nutritional needs.
Many medications are also stored in cool, dry locations, such as refrigerators. Keeping these medications stable is important.
- Medical Equipment
Without power, medical devices and equipment cease to work. This can create a life-threatening situation within minutes. Equipment can include ventilators, respirators, rechargeable power wheelchairs/scooters, lift chairs, oxygen machines, and IV pumps for medication.
It’s critical for these devices to provide uninterrupted service.
- Companionship
When communication devices stay charged, seniors can stay connected with friends and loved ones. It’s important to be able to assure others of your safety and avoid isolation in stressful situations.
- Community
Emergencies can be opportunities to bring a community together. With your electrical needs met with an X Generator, you’re in a position to offer assistance to others in need.
An X Generator is ideal for Boomers that are choosing to age in place and live independently:
- It’s affordable.
X offers a solution that’s one-tenth of the cost of its industry competitors. An investment in X products has no subsequent usage cost, meaning no additional gas or fuel is required.
- It can accommodate all types of homes.
This includes living arrangements that are more popular with seniors, such as apartments, condominiums, townhouses, and multi-family.
- Installation is straight-forward.
No permit or installation is needed.
- It’s safe and easy to use.
Unlike gas generators, X does not emit gas or harmful substances. They are 100% safe for indoor use. They’re quiet, running without noise. And they’re easy to use! X doesn’t require installation or learning- simply take it out, turn it on, plug in your device, and you have power!
Independent living involves planning for the situations that will compromise your capacity to keep your head and stay on your feet. With an X Generator, you’ll be able to provide for the health and wellbeing of yourself, and your loved ones.
