FAQs
What types of generators do you install and service in Pelham?
We specialize in residential and light-commercial standby generators that run on natural gas, propane, or diesel. Brands we commonly work with include Generac, Kohler, and Cummins, but our technicians are trained to install and maintain most major makes and models.
How do I determine the right generator size for my home or business?
A load calculation is the safest way to size a generator. Our team will visit your Pelham property, list the essential circuits or whole-building loads you want covered, measure starting (surge) and running wattages, and account for future expansion. From there, we recommend a generator—typically ranging from 14 kW to 48 kW for homes and up to 150 kW for small businesses—that meets local electrical codes and your budget.
Are permits required to install a standby generator in Pelham?
Yes. Pelham’s building department requires electrical and sometimes plumbing permits (for gas ties). We handle all permitting and coordinate inspections with the town to ensure your installation complies with NEC, local zoning setbacks, and noise ordinances.
How often should my generator be serviced?
Manufacturers recommend preventive maintenance every six months or after 100–150 run hours, whichever comes first. Service includes oil and filter changes, spark-plug replacement, battery testing, valve adjustments, and a full system diagnostic. Enrolling in our maintenance plan guarantees on-schedule visits and priority emergency support.
Will a standby generator start automatically during a power outage?
Yes. Once it senses a utility power loss—usually within 10–15 seconds—the automatic transfer switch safely disconnects you from the grid and starts the generator. When utility power returns and stabilizes, the switch reverts to grid power and shuts the generator down, all without manual intervention.
What is the average cost of a turnkey generator installation in Pelham?
Turnkey pricing—including the generator unit, automatic transfer switch, pad, gas tie-in, permits, and full installation—typically ranges from $8,000 to $18,000 for most homes. Costs vary with generator capacity, fuel type, site prep, and local code requirements. We offer free on-site evaluations, transparent quotes, financing options, and manufacturer promotions to fit a variety of budgets.
