That takes a smaller generator and burns less fuel. You choose what stays on, and we size the unit to match.

How a Partial Backup System Works
You Pick the Circuits
We go through the electrical panel with you and mark what has to stay on.
The Generator Is Sized to That List
The total of those circuits sets the generator size.
It Starts on Its Own
A standby generator senses the outage and starts without anyone touching it.
The Rest Stays Off
Circuits that are not on the list wait until utility power returns.
Standby Generator or Portable Generator?
A portable generator has to be rolled out, fueled and plugged in during the storm. A standby generator is installed in place and connected to your gas supply.
The standby unit is the one that works when you are asleep or out of town. That is the kind we install.
