FAQ - What You Need to Know About Generator Installation
When considering a generator installation, it’s natural to have questions. Here’s what you should know:
- Essential Circuits: Identify which appliances and systems you want to keep running during an outage.
- Wattage: Calculate the total wattage required for those systems.
- Professional Assessment: We can help you determine the right size to ensure your generator meets your needs without overspending.
Both devices ensure safe operation of your generator, but here’s how they differ:
- Transfer Switch: Automatically disconnects your home from the utility grid when the generator is running, eliminating the risk of backfeed.
- Interlock Kit: A manual option that allows you to safely switch between grid power and generator power.
- Versatility: Transfer switches are typically more convenient for whole-home generators, while interlock kits are a budget-friendly alternative.
- Initial Consultation: We’ll assess your home’s needs and provide a timeline estimate.
- Installation Process: Most installations can be completed in one day, but more complex systems may take longer.
- Testing: After installation, we thoroughly test the system to ensure everything is working correctly.
