 Standby Generator Guide
Whole House vs. Select Circuits
Power Everything or Just Mission Critical Circuits
One of the biggest misconceptions about home standby generators is that they restore power to the entire house.
In reality, most smaller, air-cooled machines generate enough electricity to help you weather the storm. They might restore power to an entire townhouse or a small single-family home, but not the mansion on the hill.
The first step in picking a home standby generator is to determine if you want to power your entire home or just mission critical circuits.
Whole house generators are the ideal solution because they power … surprise … the whole house. Unfortunately, they aren’t cheap. For example, a 20 kilowatt liquid-cooled generator starts at $6,725. The automatic transfer switch and installation is sold separately.
If you have the financial resources to power your whole house, go for it. Simply follow these steps to get your entire home supplied with backup power.
If not, don’t sweat. With some creativity, we can help you maximize your investment by energizing as much of the house as possible.
