Send the model and photos so the specific unit can be reviewed.

04 EQUIPMENTDoes MPR only work with generator-service companies?

05 INTAKEWhat information should I send with a service request?

Start with the manufacturer, model, available identification, reported symptoms, equipment location, and what has already been checked. Include clear photos of the complete unit, nameplate, controls, and any area connected to the problem. Documents or previous service information can also help when available.

06 INTAKEShould I ship or deliver equipment before contacting MPR?

Contact MPR first. Advance coordination helps confirm that shop intake is the appropriate path and establishes the practical details for delivery, unloading, timing, pickup, or return shipment.

07 AUTHORIZATIONWill repair work begin as soon as the unit arrives?

The process begins with intake, inspection, and diagnosis. MPR communicates the findings and proposed repair scope, then completes repair work after customer authorization. Work is not presented as approved simply because the equipment has been received.

Review the seven-step process
08 AUTHORIZATIONWhat happens if the required repair scope changes?

If inspection or repair work reveals a material change beyond the agreed scope, MPR communicates the new information so authorization can be addressed before unapproved work moves forward.

09 TESTINGHow does MPR verify a repair?

MPR functionally tests repaired equipment within the test conditions available for that unit and documents what those conditions support. The exact verification depends on the equipment, the repair, and the test setup that can be produced.

10 TESTINGDoes functional testing mean the unit is certified fully operational?

Not automatically. MPR does not claim that a unit is fully operational unless the available testing supports that conclusion. Documentation distinguishes what was verified from conditions or functions that could not be fully reproduced.

11 DOCUMENTATIONWhat documentation does MPR provide?

The service process is structured around documented inspection and diagnostic findings, the authorized repair scope, work performed, and functional testing within available conditions. The specific record will reflect the unit and service performed.

12 GEOGRAPHYDoes MPR serve customers outside Texas?

MPR is based in Kaufman, Texas and considers suitable Texas field-service opportunities. Customers in other regions can coordinate shipped-in shop repair, subject to the equipment, handling requirements, and an agreed intake plan.

Still Deciding?

You do not need to choose the service path alone.

Send the unit location, dimensions or model, reported problem, and photos. MPR can help determine whether an on-site visit or coordinated shop intake is the more practical starting point.
