"Outstanding experience. On time, took the time to educate me on the required maintenance of my 3-year old generator. Also installed remote monitoring hardware and tested it for me. Will use again."

"Very polite and professional crew. They knew what they were doing. There was a slight snag during the final check of the generator due to the manufacturers wiring error. They corrected the manufacturers wiring problem and stayed until I was satisfied. It took them extra time but they didn't complain and said they would stay until the job was completed to my satisfaction!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.
