Next Sherwood outage, your whole house stays on

A generator that starts itself in Sherwood

A standby generator in Sherwood is the set-it-and-forget-it answer to long outages. It senses the failure and starts without you. Every install includes an automatic transfer switch, which monitors the grid, switches your home over during an outage, and switches back when power returns.

We install Generac standby generators, sized to your home and wired in permanently.

What a whole-house generator can carry

• Appliances: fridge, freezer, stove, and laundry.
• Everyday power: lights, TVs, computers, and work gear.
• Medical devices and sump pumps: the equipment that cannot go down.
• Heating and cooling: furnace, heat pump, or air conditioning.

Generator size and panel capacity decide what can run together. We sort that out with you at the free quote.

Natural gas or propane

Around Sherwood, 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.

Either fuel gives you a permanent system with no manual starting.

Permanent or portable power

If you live in Sherwood, a portable generator has to be hauled out, fueled, and connected by hand, usually in bad weather. A standby generator is already installed and starts on its own.

For a Sherwood home that wants the whole house covered, a standby unit is the cleaner answer: no cords through windows, no refueling at night, and the right size for your loads.

Placement, fuel, and size are decided with you at the free consultation, before any work starts.

From quote to standby power

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

1. Consultation and design: we size the generator and choose the location.
2. Permitting and paperwork: we file the permit.
3. Installation: gas or propane connection, transfer switch, and wiring.
4. Activation and support: we start it up, walk you through it, and stay reachable.

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

The wiring and the transfer switch are electrical work, which is exactly what our licensed electricians do. We check your panel at the free quote.
