Backup Generator Installations in Fairfax County, Virginia

Fairfax County Generac Backup Generator Installation

Always having power in your home is important to us, so that’s why we install Generac Generators. Generac is the #1 selling generator brand in the area, and has an incredible reputation for being durable and reliable. Generac provides generators in all sizes, so whether you need to power a few lights or an entire business, we’ve got you covered.

There are two different types of generators you can choose from in case of a power outage: manual transfer switch generators and standby generators. They both can power your whole home or business, but are a bit different in how they operate.

Manual Transfer Switch Generator

In the case of a power outage, a manual transfer switch generator will allow you to transfer power safely from the generator to your electric panel. You can power your entire home or choose to power the more important circuits until the power utility company restores electricity to your home or business.

Standby Generators

With a standby generator, you will not have to leave your seat in case of a power outage! Within seconds of losing power, your standby generator will engage automatically and bring power back to your home or business like it was never gone.

Which Generator Is Right for Me?

There are numerous factors you should consider when deciding what type of generator to have installed. You home’s location, the amount of power you need, and your personal preferences make a lot of difference in the size you need. It also makes a difference if you want to supply the whole house with power, or just a few major appliances.
