Generator Installation
Whole-home and portable generators, transfer switches, and load management.
Maine weather takes the power out — a generator keeps your heat, water, and fridge running when it does. We size, install, and wire standby and portable generators with proper transfer switches so the changeover is safe and automatic.
We handle homes and businesses that can't afford to go dark.
What we handle
- Standby (whole-home) generators — Sized to your real load and installed to code.
- Automatic transfer switches — Seamless, safe utility-to-generator switching.
- Portable generator hookups — Interlocks and inlets done safely.
- Load management — Power what matters without oversizing.
- Fuel coordination — Working with your plumber or propane supplier.
- Service & testing — Keep the unit ready for the next outage.
A generator backfeeding through an improper hookup can kill a lineworker and your equipment. A proper transfer switch or interlock is non-negotiable — and it's what we install.
We size to what you actually need to run, so you're not paying for a unit twice as big as the job.
Frequently asked
What size generator do I need?
It depends on what you want to keep running. We calculate your essential loads and size both the unit and the transfer switch to match.
Is a transfer switch required?
Yes. Connecting a generator without a proper transfer switch or interlock is dangerous and against code. We always install one.
Can you install a generator I already bought?
Often, yes — as long as it's a suitable unit. We'll confirm it fits your needs before installing.
