Auto Starts

Kicks on within 10 seconds of a power outage — before you even notice the lights went out. No manual intervention needed.

Whole-Home

Powers your entire home including HVAC, sump pump, refrigerator, and all lights — not just a few circuits.

Weekly Self-Test

Generac generators run a brief self-test each week to ensure they're ready when you need them most.

Increases Home Value

A standby generator adds measurable value to your home and is a top feature for buyers in Wisconsin.

❄️ Wisconsin Winters Demand Backup Power

A frozen sump pump during a winter storm can cause thousands of dollars in basement flooding. A failed furnace in sub-zero temps is a safety emergency. Don't leave it to chance — a standby generator protects everything that matters.

Common Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What size generator do I need for my home?
Most homes in Southeastern Wisconsin are well-served by a 14kW–22kW Generac. The right size depends on your home's square footage, HVAC system, and which loads you want protected. We'll assess this during your free estimate.
Do I need a permit for a generator in Wisconsin?
Yes — generator installations require electrical and sometimes building permits. We handle all permitting and inspections on your behalf.
How long does generator installation take?
A typical whole-home generator installation takes 1–2 days. This includes pad preparation, generator placement, transfer switch installation, and utility coordination.
Does a generator need natural gas, or can it run on propane?
Generac standby generators run on either natural gas or propane. We coordinate with your gas utility for the natural gas meter upgrade, or we can work with your propane supplier for tank sizing.
How often does a standby generator need maintenance?
Generac recommends annual maintenance including oil change, filter replacement, and spark plugs. As a certified Generac service dealer, we handle all maintenance in-house and offer ongoing maintenance packages to keep your generator running reliably for years to come.
Do you repair generators you didn't install?
Yes. We repair and service standby generators throughout Southeastern Wisconsin regardless of who installed them, including Generac and other major brands. Whether it's a no-start, an error code, or a failed transfer switch, our licensed team can diagnose and fix it.
My Generac won't start — can you fix it?
In most cases, yes. The most common no-start causes are a dead battery, a fuel supply issue, or a control-board fault. We'll come out, diagnose the exact problem, and get your generator back to a ready state — then confirm it passes its self-test before we leave.
How much does generator repair cost?
It depends on the issue — a battery or filter service is minor, while a transfer switch or control-board replacement costs more. We diagnose the problem first and give you a clear, written price before doing any repair work, so there are no surprises.
