Providing Proactive Solutions To All Of Your Problems

How Do I know Which Type of Generator I Need?

In some senses, the type of generator you select will be based on personal preference, as is the case for homeowners who are opting for more sustainable, eco-friendly generators, or residents who are looking for the most affordable option around. However, you may also need a specific generator on account of the types of appliances you have at your home. Our helpful techs can advise you on the pros and cons of different models and makes. 

WHAT ARE THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH INSTALLING A GENERATOR?

We are proud to install superior Generac systems, known for their reliability and endurance. These systems typically start at about $2,050, but can increase in cost, depending on the type of model that is suitable for the size of your home and number of appliances. It is also important to think about associated labor costs, so speak to our contractors for more detailed information.

WHEN DOES MY GENERATOR NEED MAINTENANCE?

Usually, you can perform quick maintenance checkups on certain components of your generator on your own, such as checking the levels of coolant and engine oil on a monthly basis. However, more thorough maintenance examinations of the complex internal components should be conducted every six to 12 months by our professionals. 

HOW FAR AWAY DOES A GENERATOR NEED TO BE FROM YOUR HOUSE?

In order to protect your family members from breathing in hazardous fumes that could accompany generators, you will want your generator to be distanced at least five feet away from the edge of your property line. Our experts will discuss your installation in more detail to ensure that your generator is not positioned directly next to doors and windows.
