Backup power you can count on
Winter freezes, summer storms and a strained grid can leave Central Texas homes without power for hours or days. A generator keeps the essentials running.
A whole-home standby generator starts automatically when the power goes out. A portable generator can also power your home safely when it's connected through a transfer switch or interlock, never by plugging into an outlet.

Frequently asked questions
What size generator do I need?
It depends on what you want to keep running, from a few essential circuits to your whole home. We review your needs and your panel and recommend the right size.
What's the difference between a standby and a portable generator?
A standby generator is permanently installed and starts automatically when the power goes out. A portable generator is less expensive but must be started and connected manually through a transfer switch or interlock.
Can I just plug my generator into an outlet?
No. Backfeeding power through an outlet is dangerous for you and for utility workers on the lines. A transfer switch or interlock keeps your home and the grid safely separated.
Who handles the gas line for a standby generator?
Standby generators usually run on natural gas or propane. We handle the electrical installation, and the gas connection is made by a licensed plumber or your propane provider.
