Reliable Backup Power When the Grid Goes Down
A standby generator can detect an outage and turn on automatically with an automatic transfer switch (ATS). Unlike with portable generators, you don’t have to start the generator manually or keep refilling it with gasoline. It runs on a fixed fuel source, like natural gas or propane, to provide power for lighting, HVAC equipment, refrigerators, freezers, modems, and more.
There are many potential benefits to installing a standby generator.
- Keep the lights on
- Enjoy hot meals
- Prevent food spoilage
- Increase your property value
- Power heating and cooling systems
- Run life-saving medical equipment
- Charge mobile devices
Whole-Home Generator Installation
Our experts can help you choose the ideal generator capacity for your needs. We’ll perform custom load calculations and guide you based on your preferences, energy use, home size, and budget. The smallest generators provide essential circuit coverage. That includes refrigerators, freezers, some lighting, and essential medical equipment. Larger generators provide managed whole-home coverage. That allows you to selectively power lighting, kitchen appliances, internet devices, televisions, and other systems to keep your usual life and routines going without any interruption.
Automatic Transfer Switch Installation
Standby generators require an ATS to detect power outages and facilitate the switchover. If your current system has the necessary capacity and features, we can add an ATS right away. Our team can also handle any related upgrades, from adding circuits and surge protection to full electrical panel replacements.
Choosing the Right Generator for Your Home
Generators that burn natural gas are the most popular in our region, as they have a virtually unlimited power supply. For properties without access to natural gas, we offer liquid propane systems. The downside to propane is that you need to schedule deliveries to refill the tank when it gets low.
The ideal generator capacity for you depends on your household’s power demand. We perform a custom load calculation and help you choose the ideal model based on those numbers and your budget. Our team can help you choose an installation location that’s legally and, if applicable, HOA-compliant. We can also help you choose features, such as the ability to monitor and control your generator through your smartphone.
