FAQs
What types of generators do you install and service in Luttrell?
We install, maintain, and repair a full range of generators including portable gasoline models, standby residential units (7-26 kW), and light-commercial diesel or natural-gas generators up to 150 kW. All equipment is sourced from leading brands such as Generac, Cummins, and Kohler to ensure reliable performance in Luttrell’s mixed rural and suburban settings.
How do I determine the right generator size for my home or business?
Our technicians perform an on-site load assessment that reviews your amperage requirements, essential circuits, starting currents for HVAC or well pumps, and any future expansion plans. Using this data, we perform a wattage calculation and recommend a generator that delivers at least 20 % overhead capacity, ensuring it can handle start-up surges and Luttrell’s seasonal peak loads without overworking.
Do I need a permit to install a standby generator in Luttrell, TN?
Yes. Union County (where Luttrell is located) requires an electrical permit and, in most cases, a fuel-line permit for natural-gas or propane hookups. Our team handles all paperwork, scheduling of inspections, and coordination with Powell-Clinch Utility District or your local propane supplier to keep the project fully compliant with NEC 2023 and local zoning setbacks.
How often should my generator be serviced?
For residential standby units, manufacturers recommend a maintenance visit every 12 months or after 200 runtime hours—whichever comes first. Commercial generators typically need semi-annual service. Each visit includes an oil and filter change, load-bank test, fuel-system inspection, battery check, firmware updates, and a full electrical safety review tailored to Luttrell’s temperature swings and humidity levels.
Can a generator power my whole house during a Luttrell-wide outage?
Absolutely, but it depends on capacity. A properly sized whole-house generator paired with an automatic transfer switch (ATS) can energize every circuit. Many homeowners choose a managed-load system that prioritizes essentials—HVAC, refrigerators, lights, and medical equipment—while shedding non-critical loads to keep fuel consumption and upfront costs in check.
What financing or rebate options are available for generator installations?
We partner with local credit unions to offer 0 % interest financing for 12 months and low-APR plans up to 60 months. TVA’s EnergyRight program occasionally provides rebates for high-efficiency natural-gas generators that include Demand-Response capability. We also extend manufacturer promotions—such as Generac’s 10-year extended warranty bundle—when available. All options are reviewed during your free on-site consultation.
