"Drew and the entire crew made this experience seamless. The installers were polite, friendly, competent and and tidy. The pre and post support was fantastic, the expectations around logistics, installation timing and ongoing service support was spot on. These guys are pros and the solution cost was clearly the best in my search for authorized service providers of Generac generators. Hire them you won't go wrong. Vin M Dover NH"

"Generators of Maine just completed the installation of a 14kw generator with parallel transfer switches, to protect 2 separate metered panels at a rental property that I own. I didn't even know that this was possible, until Doug Sawyer suggested it. The incremental cost of protecting the additional panel with the parallel transfer switch arrangement was a fraction the cost of an additional generator and transfer switch. Throughout the job, Doug and his crew were awesome. I am a terrible snoop who enjoys technology, so I hung around just watching and learning. They didn't seem to mind my presence and were friendly and informative through out the install. Every aspect of the job was 100% top-notch. Doug also managed to under bid his nearest competitor on every component and aspect of the job, including the annual maintenance contract, which I deemed to be worth the $$$. I highly recommend Generators of Maine."

Customers say: True professional

"I needed a level 2 charger installed for my new EV, so this was very short notice. Jeff came up right away to examine the property (and this was a Sunday). The very next day he came up with his helper and got started on the project. Very thorough, professional, very friendly, on time, etc. I absolutely recommend him, and any further electrical projects I need done he will be the first person I call."

"Noah was quick and efficient. The job was well done and the area was left clean. He was very patient and let me write down directions (to add to the manual) as he took time to show me how to start up and run the new generator."

"Not only did the electricians promise to come to install the stovetop as soon as it came in, they came a few days after we first made contact to see what the work would entail and agreed to dispose of the cracked stovetop for us. They kept their promise by coming the day after the stovetop came in, worked efficiently and made sure it worked properly before leaving. My husband and I were extremely impressed with their work."

William was present for the entire installation. We chose the copper system. We are glad for the peace of mind a lightning rod system will provide."

"Josh is fair and very responsive with his crew of interchangeable professionals who are prompt and professional. My project was a huge undertaking across four apartments involving exterior panel installations and a complete rewiring of the entire building. I worked with about 6 of his crew members spanning months without any meaningful complaint and would depend on them for all my future electrical endeavors. His pricing is very fair for the quality of work you get."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

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.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.
