Generator Installation Ottawa
1. What types of generator installation services in Ottawa does Ottawa Electric offer?
We provide comprehensive generator services including home backup generator installations, GenerLink device setup, and maintenance services. Our certified electricians specialize in both portable and standby generator installations, working with top generator brands like Generac and Kohler to ensure reliable power for Ottawa homeowners. We handle everything from site assessment to professional installation and ongoing generator servicing.
2. Why do I need a backup generator for my home or business in Ottawa?
Power outages are common in Ottawa throughout all seasons due to storms and weather conditions. A home backup generator provides uninterrupted power during emergencies, protecting your electronics, keeping essential medical equipment running, preserving frozen foods, maintaining internet connectivity, and operating sump pumps during flooding. Generator installation in Ottawa gives you peace of mind knowing your home stays powered even during outages.
3. What is GenerLink and how does it benefit my generator installation?
GenerLink is an interconnection device that safely connects your portable generator to your home’s electrical system, eliminating the need for expensive transfer switches and hazardous extension cords. This device makes your generator a reliable source of emergency backup power while ensuring safe operation. Our expert generator installation services include proper GenerLink setup for seamless power transfer.
4. What is the cost of whole house generator installation services in Ottawa?
The cost varies based on your power needs and the right generator for your home. Basic generator installations start around $4,000 plus taxes, with typical Ottawa homeowners paying approximately $2,500 for installation. Complete generator services, including Generac installations, range from $3,000 to $20,000 depending on capacity, the installation site complexity, and whether you need additional power systems like automatic transfer switches.
5. Do you provide generator maintenance service?
Yes, we offer comprehensive maintenance service to keep your system running smoothly. Regular generator servicing ensures reliable generator performance when you need it most.
6. What's the difference between portable and standby generators?
Portable generators offer flexible generator solutions that can be moved and connected via GenerLink or transfer switches. Standby generators are permanently installed outside your home and automatically activate when power goes out. Both options provide reliable power, but standby generators offer seamless automatic start features and connect directly to your home’s natural gas or propane system, making them an ideal solution for your home.
7. How do I choose the right generator for my power needs?
Selecting the right generator depends on your home’s size, essential appliances, and specific power requirements. Our expert generator installation services include a thorough assessment to determine your power needs and recommend appropriate generator solutions. Whether you need basic backup for essentials or whole-house coverage, we’ll help you find the perfect new generator that’s right for your home. Book a Free Estimate to discuss your generator needs!
