Standby Generator
Installation in Spokane
Windstorms and winter outages happen in the Inland Northwest. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps the lights, heat and well pump running.
When the power goes out, the lights stay on
We install whole-home standby generators and automatic transfer switches, sized to the loads you actually need to keep running, from essential circuits to the whole house.
From single units to twin-generator installs on large custom homes, we handle the transfer switches, wiring and coordination with the gas side, and we can add portable generator inlets and interlocks for a simpler setup.

Common Questions
What size generator do I need?
It depends on what you want to keep running. We do a load calculation and size the generator and transfer switch to match, whether that is a few essential circuits or the whole home.
Which generator brands do you install?
We have installed Generac and Honeywell systems, among others. We can install the unit you choose or recommend one that fits your home.
Do you handle permits?
Yes. We pull the electrical permit with the right agency for your address (the City of Spokane or Washington L&I, depending on where you live) and schedule the inspection, so the work is documented and inspected.
Can I use a portable generator instead?
Yes. A properly installed inlet and interlock or transfer switch lets you power selected circuits safely from a portable generator.
How much does a standby generator cost?
Cost depends on generator size, distance to the panel and gas line, and the transfer switch. We give free, written estimates. Call 509-507-8057.
