At Generator Supercenter, we are committed to securing your home and peace of mind with back up power solutions. When bad weather hits or an electrical circuit malfunctions, a power outage is likely. When that happens, you can recover quickly if you own a reliable home backup generator. Once your generator is installed, you’ll need reliable technicians available 24/7 and capable of providing quick services. Generator Supercenter of New Hampshire provides experienced technicians for generator installation, repair, and maintenance. Benefits of working with our team: Full-service – Whether you need a new generator, or your current one is malfunctioning, we won’t leave until your generator is up and running as it should be. Convenience – If something goes wrong with your generator, you don’t have to worry about going out to buy a new one or to replace parts. We will come to your home or business and take care of it for you. Free on-site estimate – When you call us, you’re not committed to a service—our estimates are free, so you can meet with a member of our team to learn about your options with no strings attached! Unfortunately we do not do anything with portable generators or any brands not manufactured by Generac. We are also not a parts distributor.

"Matt Sanford and the team at Generator Supercenter were professional, knowledgeable and efficient when surveying my property. They spent quality time educating me on their generator product line and monitoring services. If you're looking for a superior product, company, and team to support you throughout our long New England winters, look no further!"

"These guys came out and worked in the dead of cold in the winter in an old barn and got the job done. It was a good value for the price point. They aren't the cheapest but you wouldn't want that with a professional electrician. John has a good crew of people working with him and they'll get the job done. This was a 100 amp to 200 amp upgrade with a sub panel and electric car charger install."

"We replaced the original roof on our house. I expressed my concerns about re-installation of the lightening rods to my roofer. We have had at least three direct hits since they were originally installed in 2013. My roofer called William who was very helpful. William offered to come out an make sure everything was 100% after re-installation. He came the day after I called and I'm glad he did. While the reinstall was the best he had seen (his words) there were issues after 5 year and 3 strikes that needed addressed. He fixed those and now I have a new roof and I am certain the lightening rods will work as intended. Highly recommend this company."

"IGM replaced 10 of our outside lights and installed a new motion sensor light. Chris and his partner arrived on time for the initial quote/assessment and again on the day of the project. They were very professional, polite and thorough. Some of the initial lights (inserted by the builder) involved â shortcutsâ unbeknownst to us, however, Chris correctly fixed them. All of our questions were answered and we are extremely happy with the results. We would highly recommend them."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
