The right size generator depends on what you want to keep powered during an outage and how much electricity those systems and appliances require. Some homeowners want to power essentials like their refrigerator and freezer, sump or well pump, and heating or cooling systems. Others want backup power for more of their home. We’ll discuss your priorities, evaluate your home’s electrical needs, and recommend a generator that’s properly sized to provide the backup power you need.

Both portable and standby generators need a fuel source, but they work very differently. Portable generators commonly run on gasoline and typically require someone to set them up, start them, and keep them fueled during an outage. A whole-home standby generator is permanently installed outside your home and is connected to a natural gas or propane supply. When utility power goes out, it can start automatically and provide backup power to the systems it’s designed to support—even when no one is home. For homeowners who want automatic backup power without having to set up, start, and refuel a portable generator during an outage, a standby generator offers the convenience of automatic operation.

The time needed to install a whole-home generator varies depending on the project, including where the generator will be located and the electrical work required.

Our electricians arrive in fully stocked trucks to help keep the work moving efficiently.
