Determine a Location and Prep the Site
After you’ve purchased a generator for your home or business, one of our staff members will come out to determine the location where it will be installed. If you have a preference or place in mind, we definitely want to know! Generally speaking, we’ll be able to find a location for your generator that will remain out-of-sight, so your property stays pleasing to the eye.
When choosing a location our staff follows a few simple guidelines, including:
- Leaving room around the generator for maintenance when it’s needed
- Abiding by any homeowners association or community restrictions
- Choosing a stable, uncluttered surface
If you do have a location in mind, we will do our very best to make sure your generator goes in that location or as close to it as possible. Afterward, we will prep the site for installation, which entails laying down gravel or concrete so the generator is on a sturdy base!
Install and Test the Generator
Once the location has been selected and prepped, it’s time for us to install your generator for you! We will make sure everything is connected properly, so that if the power goes out, the generator will takeover and provide you with power! We make sure everything is properly installed by testing that everything is working and functioning as it should when the need comes.
