How It Works

Our Generator Installation Process

Every home has different power needs, so we start with an assessment before any equipment goes in.

01Step 1

Home Assessment

We look at your electrical panel, circuits, and household power needs to determine the right generator size and placement for your property.

02Step 2

System Planning

We map out the transfer switch location, wiring path, and any panel upgrades needed to safely support the new generator system.

03Step 3

Installation

Our electricians install the generator, transfer switch, and wiring, coordinating with fuel or gas connections where a standby unit requires them.

04Step 4

Testing and Walkthrough

We test the automatic or manual switchover, confirm everything runs correctly, and walk you through operating and maintaining the system.

Frequently asked

Generator Installation Questions

Get clear answers about generator installation, preparation, timing, maintenance, and what to expect before requesting an estimate.

Q1

How do I know what size generator I need?

We calculate your home's electrical load, including essential circuits like your furnace, sump pump, and refrigerator, to recommend a generator sized to run what matters most during an outage.

Q2

Do you install both portable and standby generators?

Yes, we handle wiring and transfer switch installation for portable units as well as full standby systems that run on natural gas or propane and start automatically.

Q3

Will my electrical panel need upgrades first?

Some homes need panel work to safely accommodate a generator transfer switch. We check your panel's condition and capacity during the assessment and let you know if upgrades are needed.

Q4

How long does a typical installation take?

Most standby generator installations take one to two days depending on wiring complexity, panel condition, and whether gas line coordination is required with your fuel provider.

Q5

Do you handle the transfer switch wiring too?

Yes, transfer switch wiring is part of every installation. We connect it to your panel so the system can switch power sources automatically or manually, depending on your setup.

Q6

Can you install a generator for a whole house?

We install whole house standby systems designed to cover your entire electrical load, as well as smaller setups focused on essential circuits, depending on your budget and needs.

Q7

Do you service areas outside Gahanna?

We install generators throughout the Columbus metro, including Dublin, Westerville, New Albany, Reynoldsburg, Bexley, and Pickerington, along with Gahanna.
