Common Questions
Who handles permits for generator installation?
Our team manages all required permits and inspections, ensuring your installation meets local codes.
Hw long will my generator power my home during an outage?
A professionally installed whole house generator can run indefinitely during an outage as long as it's connected to your natural gas line. If you're using propane, your generator will run as long as you have fuel in your tank.
What's the difference between a whole house generator and a portable one?
A whole house generator is permanently installed, automatically powers your entire home during outages, and runs on your home's natural gas or propane. Portable generators are temporary solutions that require manual setup, can only power a few appliances, and need constant refueling with gasoline. Plus, whole house generators run safely outside while portable units can pose carbon monoxide risks.
What happens during a power outage?
Your generator automatically detects the outage and restores power within seconds - whether you're home or away.
