Our Approach

How We Handle Generator Installations

Every property has different power needs, so we start with an assessment before any wiring begins.

01Step 1

On-Site Assessment

We look at your panel, service size, and the circuits you want backed up so we can recommend a generator setup that fits your property.

02Step 2

System Planning

We map out transfer switch placement, wiring routes, and any panel work needed to support the new generator connection.

03Step 3

Installation

Our team runs the wiring, installs the transfer switch or interlock, and connects the generator following current electrical code.

04Step 4

Testing and Walkthrough

Once installed, we test the system under load and walk you through how to operate it during an outage.

Frequently asked

Generator Install Questions

Get clear answers about generator installs, preparation, timing, maintenance, and what to expect before requesting an estimate.

Q1

Do you install both standby and portable generators?

Yes. We wire standby systems with automatic transfer switches and also handle inlet boxes and interlock kits for portable generators, depending on what fits your property and budget.

Q2

Will my current electrical panel work with a generator?

It depends on your panel's age and capacity. During the assessment, we check whether your existing panel can handle the new connection or if an upgrade is needed first.

Q3

Do I need a permit for a generator installation?

Most generator installs in the Peyton and Colorado Springs area require an electrical permit and inspection. We handle that process as part of the install.

Q4

How do I know what size generator I need?

We calculate your home or business's electrical load based on the circuits and appliances you want backed up, then recommend a generator size that matches that demand.

Q5

What is a transfer switch and why do I need one?

A transfer switch safely isolates your home's wiring from the utility grid when the generator is running, preventing backfeed and protecting both your system and utility workers.

Q6

Can you install a generator for a home addition or remodel?

Yes. If you're adding square footage or updating your electrical system, we can plan the generator install alongside that work to make sure everything is properly sized together.

Q7

How long does a generator installation take?

Timelines vary based on panel condition, wiring distance, and permit scheduling. We'll give you a clearer estimate once we've assessed your property during the initial visit.

Q8

Do you service Falcon and other nearby areas?

Yes. Along with Peyton, we install generators for properties in Falcon, Cimarron Hills, Briargate, and other communities across the Front Range.
