FAQs
What types of generators do you install for homes and businesses in Signal Mountain?
We install a full range of generators, including standby natural-gas and propane units for whole-home protection, diesel-powered systems for commercial and industrial facilities, and portable inverter models for smaller loads. All units we recommend meet the latest EPA emissions standards and are selected based on your specific power requirements, available fuel source, and budget.
How does the installation process work and how long does it take?
After an on-site assessment to determine load size, placement, and permitting needs, we handle the entire turnkey installation: concrete pad, electrical integration with an automatic transfer switch, gas or diesel fuel connection, and final commissioning. Residential projects typically take 1–2 days once permits and pads are ready; commercial installations may span 3–5 days depending on size and complexity.
Will a standby generator power my whole house during an outage?
Yes, if sized correctly. We calculate your home’s starting and running wattage (HVAC, refrigeration, well pumps, etc.) and add a safety margin to select a generator that can handle the full load. In cases where budget or fuel limitations exist, we can install a load-shedding smart switch that prioritizes essential circuits, ensuring critical systems stay powered without overloading the generator.
How often does a generator need maintenance, and what services do you provide?
For residential standby units, we recommend semi-annual maintenance that includes oil and filter changes, battery checks, coolant and fuel system inspections, and a full operational test under load. Commercial diesel generators often require quarterly service due to longer run times. We offer customizable maintenance plans, remote monitoring, and 24/7 emergency repairs to keep your system ready at all times.
What noise levels can I expect, and are there local regulations in Signal Mountain?
Modern generators feature sound-attenuated enclosures that keep noise in the 60–70 dB(A) range at 23 feet—similar to a central air conditioner. Signal Mountain’s municipal code limits residential equipment noise to 75 dB(A) during daytime and 65 dB(A) at night. We position units strategically, install acoustic barriers if needed, and secure proper permits to ensure full compliance.
Do you help with financing and rebates for generator installations?
Absolutely. We partner with leading lenders to offer low-interest financing options with terms up to 120 months and no prepayment penalties. In some cases, TVA energy-resilience rebates and certain insurance discounts may apply. Our team will guide you through all available incentives, prepare the paperwork, and optimize your project cost.
