Free In-Home Consultation

Your ownership journey begins with a free in-home consultation with our sales team. We take time to explain the operation of a home standby system, discuss placement of key components, and review your home's power requirements. We work with you to build the perfect system for your needs, and review the different ways to own, including industry-leading financing and leasing options.

Pre-Installation Preparation

Local regulations are complex and vary widely by city and county, but our office staff will lead you through every step of the process to make the process smooth and straightforward. We handle all administrative details, including electrical and gas permits, coordination with utility providers, and final inspections. Our standard is a 100% safe and legal installation.

Electrical Connection

The home standby generator fully integrates into your home's electrical system. When our team arrives, they will review the scope of work, including the generator placement, estimated construction time, and routing of wires and conduit. Next, our installers will disconnect your existing equipment, install your new automatic transfer switch, and connect your new generator to the system. Once the system is installed, home power is restored and connections checked. We use only top-quality name-brand components from GE, Siemens, Eaton, and more.

Fuel Connection

Your generator requires a fuel source to create electricity. An expert gaseous plumber will extend and connect your home's fuel system to the generator, ensuring your generator has enough energy to power your home.

Final Inspection

All work is inspected and checked by local authorities to ensure safety and compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and codes. Defects, while rare, and fully addressed prior to activating the system.

Activation and Commission

Your new generator is activated and tested. Our professionals verify the proper functionality of the generator, including a simulated utility outage event. We review all system features, show you how to use your new generator, and hand over the keys!
