Lee's Summit Generator Installation

A whole home generator, also known as a standby generator, is a system that automatically supplies power to your home during power outages. They are typically fueled by propane, natural gas, or diesel and can power your entire home or specific circuits, depending on their size.

The cost of a whole home generator can vary significantly based on its capacity, brand, and other features. Most of the Generac models we install cost between $3,000 and $12,000, plus installation—the costs of which can vary depending on the installation location and need for additional infrastructure like wiring. When you contact us about installing a generator for your home, we’ll provide you with an accurate estimate based on your needs.

The primary benefit of a whole home generator is that it provides uninterrupted power during outages, ensuring the continued operation of critical systems like heating, cooling, and refrigeration. Whole home generators also automatically turn on when they detect a power outage and off when power is restored, providing convenience and peace of mind.

With regular maintenance, a Generac whole home generator can last between 20-30 years. However, the lifespan can be influenced by factors such as usage and environmental conditions, so taking good care of your generator is important.

Whole home generators require regular maintenance to ensure they're ready when you need them. This usually involves changing the oil and filter, checking the coolant level, inspecting the battery, and testing the unit periodically. We recommend professional service for your generator at least once a year.
