Generator Sales, Installation, Maintenance & Repair

A typical home standby air-cooled generator installation will take about one day to complete. Liquid-cooled models would take longer to complete. If a concrete pad is necessary it would add a day or two for the concrete to dry. The length of time is based on a typical application. It does not apply to applications that require extended runs of wiring or gas piping.

The good news is that the operating cost of a home standby generator is surprisingly low. On average, depending on the size and fuel source of the generator, the monthly cost can range from $25 to $100. This cost includes fuel, maintenance, and occasional service checks. But, when compared to the cost of an unpredictable power outage, the monthly expense of a generator is a small price to pay for the peace of mind that comes with knowing you always have electricity when you need it. Plus, with advancements in technology, many modern generators are designed to run efficiently, giving you more power for your fuel dollar. Overall, the initial investment of a home standby generator is worth the long-term benefits and minimal monthly costs it affords.

Ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your generator by giving it the necessary attention it deserves. Similar to your car, this power-generating engine requires regular upkeep to ensure it's ready to go when you need it most. Don't neglect it like you wouldn't neglect your car - regular oil changes, tire rotations, and windshield wiper replacements are essential. Likewise, your generator demands preventative maintenance. Here are a few key things to keep in mind regarding the upkeep of your new generator, taking into account its make, model, and size.

Get your home standby generator installed in no time! A typical air-cooled installation only takes about one day to complete.

Larry F.

I found Robert Wolfe, owner of A-Lectric, to be highly skilled, fair, and honest. Robert decided to make adjustments during installation that were better for me but more costly to him. True to his word that the agreed upon price would not change, I was not charged the added expense.
