Frequently Asked Questions About Whole-House Generators
Is a whole-house generator or portable generator better?
Both whole-house generators and portable backup generators provide valuable protection during a power outage, but they're designed for different needs. A whole-house generator is permanently installed outside your home and automatically restores power within seconds of an outage, making it an excellent choice for homeowners who want seamless protection for essential systems or their entire home. Portable generators offer a flexible and cost-effective solution for powering select appliances or equipment during shorter outages.
Kuhlman Electric® installs both whole-house and portable Generac generators and can help you compare the benefits of each to ensure you choose the option that's right for your family.
How long will a whole-house generator run?
A Generac whole-house generator is designed to operate for as long as utility power is unavailable, provided it has a continuous fuel supply. Generators connected to a natural gas line can run for extended periods without the need for manual refueling. Propane-powered generators can also provide reliable backup power, with runtime depending on the size of the propane tank and your home’s electrical demand.
Can a standby generator power my entire home?
Yes, many standby generators are capable of powering an entire home, but it depends on the size of the generator and your home's electrical load. Some homeowners choose to back up every circuit, while others prefer to power only essential systems such as heating and cooling equipment, refrigeration, lighting, internet, and security systems. During your consultation, Kuhlman Electric® will evaluate your electrical system and help determine the right Generac generator to match your backup power needs.
Are whole-house generators noisy?
Modern Generac whole-house generators are designed to operate quietly compared to older generator models. While they do produce engine noise when running, they're engineered for residential use and are significantly quieter than most portable generator options.
What impacts the price of a standby generator?
There isn't a one-size-fits-all price for a whole-house standby generator because every home has different backup power needs. Factors such as your home's size, the number of circuits you want to power, the generator's capacity, and whether your home uses natural gas or propane all play a role. Existing electrical infrastructure, site conditions, and any additional installation requirements can also influence the final cost. The best way to determine the right generator and receive an accurate price is by scheduling a professional evaluation with Kuhlman Electric®.
