Protect Your Home, Family, and Peace of Mind

A whole-home standby generator typically costs between $12,000 and $25,000 installed, depending on your home's electrical load, the generator size (usually 22kW to 48kW for residential), fuel source, and site conditions. Partial-home systems covering essential circuits start around $7,000 installed. We provide a detailed quote after a free home consultation — no surprises.

Most residential installations are completed in one to two days once the equipment arrives and permits are approved. The full process — from consultation through final inspection — typically takes four to six weeks, depending on permit timelines and equipment availability.

Modern home standby generators from Generac and Kohler are designed to be neighborhood-friendly. Most operate at 60 to 67 decibels measured at 23 feet — about the volume of a normal conversation. Sound-attenuated enclosures keep noise levels well within residential ordinance limits.

If your home has a natural gas connection, that's usually the simplest choice — unlimited fuel supply with no tank to refill. If you're on propane, we size a tank large enough to run your generator for several days. Both fuel types are reliable; the right choice depends on what's available at your property.

Home standby generators should be serviced at least once a year — oil and filter changes, spark plug inspection, battery check, coolant level (for liquid-cooled units), and a full operational test. Most units run a brief automatic self-test weekly. Our maintenance plans handle everything on a scheduled basis so you don't have to think about it.
