Home Generator Installation Process

Every home's standby power needs are different. And we're the experts at delivering a truly custom solution. Here's how we make the installation process seamless and stress-free for you.

In-Home Consultation

Your local dealer will visit your home to determine specific installation and local permit needs for your standby generator. This includes checking the electrical meter, gas lines and circuit breaker panel location to scout the best placement for your generator unit, confirming your home's wiring specifications and discussing whether natural gas or liquid propane will work best for your Briggs & Stratton home generator system.

Installation Price Estimate

Your dealer will recommend the best home generator and placement for your needs. Then you will receive a price estimate that includes the generator unit; required transfer switch and modules; installation, labor and permit costs; and any accessories you may want to add on to your purchase. The dealer will also discuss available financing options.

Preparation & Installation

Prior to the installation of your backup generator, your dealer will obtain necessary legal permits, finalize installation requirements, order necessary materials and schedule your installation date.
