FAQs
How long does it take to install a standby generator?
Most residential installations take one to two days to complete. This timeline includes placing the unit, wiring the transfer switch, and running final safety tests. Larger commercial projects may take longer based on the size of the electrical system.
Will the generator power my whole house?
It depends on the size of the generator you select. Some units power only essential loads like lights and fridges, while others run central air and heavy appliances. We provide a load calculation during your free estimate to help you choose the right size.
Do you repair generators installed by other contractors?
Yes. Our team provides electrical repairs and maintenance for many generator brands. We use our technical knowledge to find issues and restore the unit to working order, even if we did not perform the original installation.
Why is an automatic transfer switch important?
An automatic switch restores power within seconds of an outage without human help. It also prevents backfeeding, which is when power travels back into the utility lines. This protects utility workers fixing the grid.
How often does a generator need service?
We recommend a professional maintenance visit once or twice a year. Scheduling a checkup before winter is a smart way to ensure the battery and oil are ready for freezing temperatures.
