Home Generator Installation Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

First, we come out to assess your property and electrical panel. We’ll determine the right size generator for your needs and the best location for installation. This isn’t guesswork – we calculate your actual power requirements.

Next, we handle all the permits and utility notifications. We install the concrete pad, run the electrical connections, and set up the natural gas or propane fuel line. Everything gets wired to your main electrical panel with a proper transfer switch.

After installation, we test the entire system and program the automatic controls. We’ll walk you through the basic operation and maintenance schedule. Your generator will run a weekly self-test to make sure it’s always ready when you need it.

How long does generator installation take in Nimrod?

Most residential generator installations take one to two days to complete. The first day involves setting the concrete pad, running electrical and gas lines, and mounting the generator. The second day covers final electrical connections, testing, and startup. Weather can affect the timeline, especially for concrete curing. We’ll give you a specific schedule when we assess your property and explain any factors that might extend the installation time.
Generator sizing depends on what you want to power during an outage. A 20kW generator typically handles essential circuits like lights, refrigerator, well pump, and a few outlets. A 24kW unit can run most of your home including one AC unit. For whole house coverage including multiple AC units, you’ll likely need 26kW or larger. We calculate your actual electrical load during our site visit to recommend the right size for your specific needs and budget.
Yes, generator installation requires electrical permits and often gas permits depending on your fuel source. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation service. The local authority having jurisdiction will inspect the electrical connections and gas lines to ensure code compliance. We also coordinate with your utility company for any required disconnections during installation. This paperwork is included in our service so you don’t have to navigate the permit process yourself.
Absolutely. Many Nimrod area homes use propane for their standby generators, especially properties without natural gas service. We can connect to your existing propane tank or help you size a new tank for generator use. Propane generators are reliable and the fuel stores indefinitely without degrading. We’ll assess your current propane setup and fuel usage to ensure adequate supply for extended outages while maintaining your other propane appliances.
Standby generators need professional maintenance twice a year – typically spring and fall. This includes oil and filter changes, spark plug replacement, battery testing, and system diagnostics. The generator runs a weekly self-test automatically, but annual maintenance keeps it ready for extended outages. We offer maintenance packages that include scheduled service visits, parts, and priority emergency service. Regular maintenance is essential for warranty coverage and reliable operation when you need backup power most.
Your standby generator monitors utility power 24/7 through the automatic transfer switch. When it detects an outage, the generator starts automatically within 10-15 seconds and begins supplying power to your home. When utility power returns, the system automatically switches back to grid power and shuts down the generator after a brief cool-down period. You don’t need to do anything – the entire process is automatic. The generator will also send alerts to your phone if you have the monitoring system enabled.
