Frequently Asked Questions

Your appliances and electrical needs, such as your furnace, air conditioner, refrigerator, lights, and other systems that utilize electricity, greatly impact the size of the generator needed to effectively power your home.

We recommend installing a generator with a capacity that’s 15% to 25% greater than your home’s wattage to ensure it can safely and comfortably handle all of your home’s electrical needs.

The price for a whole-home generator can be impacted by several factors, including:

  • Automatic switch transfer installation
  • Generator accessories
  • Permits and building codes
  • Installation labor
  • Fuel source installation, if needed

While the age of your system can indicate that it’s time for replacement, running time is much more indicative of your standby generator’s longevity.

The life expectancy of a standby generator is between 10,000 and 30,000 hours. It’s probably time for a new system if your system has reached this age and has frequent problems.
