When Pacific Northwest storms knock out the grid, your home stays powered. Whole-home standby generators and transfer switches installed by licensed electricians.
From whole-home standby units that activate automatically to portable hookups with manual transfer switches, we match the right generator solution to your needs.
A permanently installed unit that sits outside your home and starts automatically within seconds of a power outage. Your lights, HVAC, refrigerator, and sump pump keep running without you lifting a finger.
Already own a portable generator? We install a code-compliant inlet box and manual transfer switch so you can safely connect it to your home's electrical panel. No more running extension cords through windows.
The brain of your backup power system. An automatic transfer switch detects outages and switches your home to generator power instantly. Load management ensures your generator runs the most important circuits first without overloading.
The Pacific Northwest averages multiple major windstorms each winter. When trees take down power lines, outages can last hours or even days.
Winter windstorms and ice events regularly knock out power across King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. A standby generator means your heat stays on, your pipes don't freeze, and your family stays comfortable while you wait for the utility crew.
CPAP machines, oxygen concentrators, powered wheelchairs, and refrigerated medication all depend on steady electricity. A generator provides the reliability that your health requires, day or night.
A power outage during a workday means missed meetings, lost deadlines, and interrupted connectivity. With a standby generator, your internet router, computer, and monitors stay powered so you keep working without disruption.
Extended outages can mean spoiled food, flooded basements (when sump pumps lose power), and frozen pipes in winter. A generator protects your home from the costly damage that comes with prolonged power loss.
From consultation to commissioning, we handle every detail of your generator installation.
We evaluate your electrical panel, fuel source options, and power needs. You'll get a clear recommendation for the right generator size and placement.
Our licensed electricians install the generator, transfer switch, and all wiring. We handle permits and coordinate with your gas utility if needed.
We simulate an outage to verify everything works perfectly. Then we walk you through operation, maintenance, and your warranty coverage.
Generator installation is serious electrical work. It requires proper load calculations, code-compliant wiring, safe fuel connections, and a transfer switch that works flawlessly every time. That's what we deliver.
Every installation is performed by WA-licensed electricians with generator-specific training.
You'll see the full project cost before we start. No surprise charges, no hidden fees.
We pull the permits and schedule inspections so your installation is fully code-compliant.
Our labor warranty covers your installation, and manufacturer warranties protect your equipment.
It depends on which systems you want to power during an outage. A typical Seattle home needs 16-22kW for whole-home coverage, but you may only need 10-14kW if you prioritize specific circuits like your furnace, fridge, and a few outlets. We'll do a load calculation during your assessment to recommend the right size.
Most standby generator installations take 1-2 days once the equipment arrives. This includes setting the concrete pad, installing the generator, wiring the transfer switch, and connecting the fuel line. Portable hookups with a manual transfer switch are usually completed in half a day.
Yes, standby generators require an electrical permit and often a mechanical permit for the gas connection. We handle all permitting and schedule the required inspections as part of your installation. Everything is done to current Washington State electrical code.
Most standby generators run on natural gas, which is ideal if your home already has a gas line. For homes without natural gas, propane is the standard alternative. We'll evaluate your fuel options during the assessment and recommend the best fit.
Modern standby generators operate at around 60-70 decibels, similar to a normal conversation. They're significantly quieter than portable generators. We also position the unit to minimize noise impact on your living spaces and neighbors.
