  • Home generators provide a dependable power source by converting fuel—such as natural gas, propane, or gasoline—into electricity. These units automatically activate when a power failure occurs, ensuring that critical appliances like refrigerators, HVAC systems, and lighting continue to function. Installing a generator at home means you won’t have to worry about spoiled food, extreme temperatures, or disruptions to your daily routine. There are many reasons why investing in home backup generator installation can be a smart decision, including:

  • Sudden power grid failures can leave entire neighborhoods in the dark. A generator keeps your home running smoothly.

  • Strong storms, high winds, and tornadoes can damage power lines, leading to prolonged outages. A generator ensures you stay comfortable.

  • Unexpected infrastructure issues can lead to electricity disruptions. A backup generator provides a safeguard against these situations.

  • Accidents, wildlife interference, and maintenance work can all lead to sudden power loss. With a generator in place, you’ll always be prepared.

Choosing the Right Generator for Your Home

The home generator installation cost depends on the type and size of the unit you select. At Mr. Electric of Wichita, we offer expert guidance in choosing the best option for your needs. Here are two primary types of home generators:

Portable Generators

If you need a cost-effective option to power select appliances during an outage, a portable generator may be the right choice. These generators require manual operation and direct connection to the appliances you want to run. While they have a lower upfront cost—typically around $1,500—they require careful handling to prevent carbon monoxide exposure and ensure safe usage.

Standby Generators

A standby generator is the best power solution for homeowners seeking automatic and comprehensive backup energy. These units run on propane or natural gas and activate as soon as an outage occurs, ensuring a seamless transition to backup power. While the cost to install a home generator of this type can range up to $15,000, the reliability and convenience they offer make them a worthwhile investment for long-term peace of mind.

  • Routine home generator maintenance is essential for ensuring your system remains in top condition. Our electricians provide expert maintenance services, checking for fuel efficiency, battery strength, and overall system health. Proper maintenance extends the lifespan of your generator and ensures it operates efficiently when needed most.
