The cost of not having a generator for your home adds up and the risk outweighs the cost of installing one.
When considering what size home generator you need, the most important factor to consider is how much power your home will require in an emergency situation. This is because the generator must be able to provide enough power to keep your home up and running during a blackout. To help you determine what size home generator you need, consider the wattage requirements of your major home appliances and electronics.
Your backup generator will be installed with a transfer switch that allows your home to switch from power supplied by the grid to power produced by the generator.
The installation process of a home generator varies depending on the type and size of the unit. Smaller standby generators can be installed in as little as a day, whereas larger units may take several days depending on site conditions and AHJ requirements.
Usually installing a home generator is not a project a homeowner should undertake on their own. It may be possible to do a DIY project with a portable generator, but installing a standby home generator requires the skills of a professional electrician to ensure your home’s safety.
For optimal performance, it is recommended that your home generator should be serviced by a professional technician at least once a year. Ideally, service should take place at the beginning of the season in which you anticipate using your generator most often.
There are many different cost factors that can dictate the price of a home generator system for your home. When a professional from Astacio Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical assesses your home generator needs, here are the main cost factors they consider in a home generator installation:
The ultimate cost to install a whole house home generator depends on the features of the generator, its power source, and the size of your home. Call Westchester Generator today to schedule an appointment to have a professional electrician survey your home and provide a quote!
