  • Power outages can occur at any time due to severe weather, utility maintenance, or unforeseen technical issues. Whether you work from home or have essential medical equipment that requires a steady power supply, installing a home generator is crucial for ensuring your household continues to function smoothly during outages. Beyond convenience, having a generator in place can safeguard your appliances, electronics, and food storage from damage or spoilage.

    A residential generator provides an automatic backup power source, keeping your home safe and functional. It can protect against the loss of heat during cold weather, prevent pipes from freezing, and ensure vital systems like sump pumps and refrigerators continue working. With a home generator, you can prevent unnecessary stress and protect your property.

  • At Mr. Electric of Fairfax, we are committed to offering top-notch generator installation services for homeowners in Fairfax, Reston, Great Falls, and McLean. Our skilled electricians have years of experience in residential generator installation, ensuring that your new system is installed safely, efficiently, and according to local codes and standards.

    Whether you're installing a generator for the first time or upgrading an existing one, our team will guide you through every step of the process—from selecting the right model for your home's power needs to performing routine maintenance and checks.

  • Selecting the right generator for your home is a crucial part of the installation process. The size and type of generator your home needs will depend on the specific power requirements of your household. At Mr. Electric of Fairfax, we provide expert recommendations based on the size of your home, the number of essential devices and appliances you want to keep powered, and how long you anticipate needing backup electricity.

    There are several types of residential generators available, and we specialize in installing both portable and whole-home standby generators. A whole-home generator offers a seamless power solution, automatically kicking in when the power goes out, so you never have to lift a finger. This option is permanently installed outside your home, much like an air conditioning unit, and it can be powered by natural gas or propane. If you're unsure which type of generator is right for you, our experienced team will help you determine the best option to fit your budget and power needs.
