Generator FAQs
Have a question about home generators? We’re here to help!
How long does a generator installation usually take?
A typical home generator installation takes about 2 to 3 days from start to finish. The exact timing can vary based on the site preparation required, the layout of the property, and how easily the electrical and fuel connections can be accessed. Weather can also influence the schedule, especially when outdoor work is involved.
How often should a home generator be maintained?
Most home generators should be maintained annually to keep them running reliably. Systems that experience heavy usage or frequent power outages may require additional checkups to ensure all components stay in good working condition.
What fuel options are available for home generators?
Home generators commonly run on natural gas, propane, or diesel. The best choice often depends on what fuel sources are available at the property, as well as the desired balance between convenience, efficiency, and long-term operating costs.
Where can a generator be installed on my property?
Generators are generally installed outdoors in a well-ventilated area to ensure safe operation. They should be placed away from doors, windows, and vents so exhaust can disperse properly. A professional installer typically determines the best location based on clearance requirements, airflow, and accessibility.
