Outage in King City? Your generator starts itself

Automatic power for your King City home

In King City, a standby generator means an outage is something you notice on the news, not in your house. An automatic transfer switch is the brain of the system. It senses the outage, isolates your house from the grid, and starts the generator for you.

These are permanent Generac standby units, not portables, matched to the loads you want covered.

What a whole-house generator can carry

• Kitchen and laundry: refrigerator, freezer, range, and washer.
• Lighting and devices: lights, screens, and the home office.
• Protection: medical equipment and sump pumps keep working.
• Comfort: heating and cooling through the whole outage.

At the free quote we add up the loads and pick a generator size that fits them.

Natural gas or propane

For a King City home, you have two fuel choices: natural gas or propane. A home already on natural gas can connect the generator directly to the line. Without natural gas, we install a propane tank for the generator.

A permanent hookup means no fuel cans, no extension cords, and no standing outside in the rain.

Permanent or portable power

Across King City, portable units need you to set them up in the dark and the rain. A standby generator is permanent and takes over automatically.

Whole-home coverage is what a standby generator is built for, and we size it so the circuits you care about in King City stay on together.

Before anything is ordered, we agree with you on where it goes, what it runs on, and how big it is.

From quote to standby power

Installing a standby generator in King City takes four steps, from a free consultation through permit and install to activation.

1. Consultation and design: a free visit to look at your loads, your panel, and where it will sit.
2. Permitting and paperwork: the permit and paperwork are ours.
3. Installation: our electricians set the unit, connect the fuel, and wire the transfer switch.
4. Activation and support: we test it, show you how it works, and support you afterward.

A backup generator needs a permit in Oregon, and we pull it for you.

Generator work is electrical work first. We tie the transfer switch into your panel, so our licensed electricians do the install and look at your panel during the free quote to see whether it needs attention.
