Choosing a New Generator for Your London, KY Home
During the initial consultation, we will assess your specific needs and discuss generator sizing, fuel sources, and transfer switch installations.
Selecting the Right Generator Size
One of the most important factors to consider before installing your generator is making sure you select a system that meets your household’s electrical demands. You will need to choose a generator that can handle your HVAC equipment, water heater, stove, refrigerator, and other large appliances.
For the average home, generators that are 25kW or less are enough to provide your electrical appliances with the right amount of protection. Our team will take the time to evaluate your needs and ensure that you receive a properly sized system.
What are the Benefits of a Home Backup Generator?
Installing a backup generator is one of the smartest choices you can make for your home. Not only will it provide you with uninterrupted power during a sudden outage, but it will also help you enjoy additional benefits as well.
- Increased property value: A professionally installed backup generator can be an asset to your home in the future should you plan to sell it, allowing you to negotiate a higher price for your property.
- Safer and more convenient operation: Do you currently use a portable generator? You probably know how inconvenient it is to have to deal with the extension cords. There’s also the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning if your unit runs in a poorly ventilated area. You can avoid these problems with a new home backup generator that will automatically protect your electrical appliances (even when you’re not home); and since the equipment will be installed outside, the risk of CO poisoning is significantly reduced.

Fuel Sources
Home backup generators run on natural gas, liquid propane, or diesel. Most homeowners install natural gas or liquid propane generators, since these types of fuel are typically used with systems 25kW or less.
We can also help you upgrade your existing gas line or fuel tank (if necessary) to more efficiently accommodate your new generator. Our experts will go over the necessary changes with you in advance and make sure you know what to expect before the upgrade begins.
Transfer Switch Installation
Transfer switches are required to ensure the safe operation of your generator. The transfer switch is designed to keep your electrical system from experiencing sudden imbalances or backfeeding. Our team of experts will make sure that the transfer switch is safely installed with your new generator.
