"The quote process was fairly painless. All of my questions were answered and the price was agreeable. The check was written and the equipment was ordered. I asked the salesman Byron to coordinate his electrician with my electrical contractor on the installation of the genny and ATS. He said this was done and nothing to worry about. Several weeks later after all foundations were poured and ditches covered, Byron and his electrician came out to deliver the transfer switch. To my surprise, the electrician had never been to my property and quickly informed me that the transfer switch they brought was not the correct one. After some investigation, it was discovered the Powernow ordered and delivered the wrong ATS. They did agree to install the additional required equipment to make the ATS on hand work. The generator was delivered with 2hrs notice. This was Sept20. Install finally began two weeks later. During installation, the electrician couldn't figure out how to make the ATS and the generator talk to each other. A Cummins rep was called out. After a day of work, the ATS and generator were talking. The Cummins PowerCommand system was also ordered. This the system which relays the generator status and control over the home network to be accessed online. No one inside of PowerNow has a clue on how this system is supposed to be installed. Bi weekly emails and phone calls were made to inquire on the status of the install. To date, Dec27, nothing has happened with the install of the PowerCommand module. I finally cut PowerNow loose and told them I would find someone that knew what they were doing. PowerNow is very keen on collecting the check for the job. However, once money is in hand, all priority goes out the window. The sales team has no clue on how the components they are selling all fit together. I spent close to $30K on this system and due to PowerNow's incompetence I am left with a brand new system covered in bandaids. Steer clear of this company."

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

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.

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.
