The most important step in any generator project, done properly: what you want to run, how much it really needs and how big the generator should be.
Most generator problems trace back to sizing. A unit that is too small trips under load; one that is far too big costs more to buy, install and fuel than it needs to. The right answer comes from your real electrical loads, including the starting surge of motors like air conditioners and well pumps.
We review your panel, list the circuits that matter, calculate running and starting watts and compare whole-house, partial-house and essentials-only approaches. You get a clear recommendation and a range of options, whether or not you decide to buy from us.
