Generator Installation

What This Service Involves

Winter windstorms regularly knock out power across Western Washington, and a properly installed generator keeps your heat, refrigeration, and essentials running. We install standby generators with automatic transfer switches that start on their own during an outage, or set up safe manual transfer connections for portable units. Every installation includes a transfer switch that safely isolates your home from the grid, protecting utility crews and your equipment. We handle the gas or fuel connection, permitting, and inspection so your backup power is ready before the next storm.
