Planning an installation

From your priorities to a tested system

Parks provides a project-specific proposal after evaluating your home.

  • 01 Evaluate your home Review the loads you want to support, electrical demand, fuel supply and proposed placement.
  • 02 Plan the approved work Understand the scope, transfer equipment, price and project timeline before proceeding.
  • 03 Test and hand over Parks tests starting and transfer operation, then explains the controller and care schedule.

Before choosing capacity

What do you want to keep running?

Whole-home coverage depends on the generator, the electrical loads and the design.

  • Choose your priorities

    Selected-circuit coverage can support focused outage priorities. Broader coverage starts with a different load evaluation.

  • Consider starting demand

    HVAC systems and other motors may need extra power when starting. Load-management controls can help stage demand where the design calls for them.

  • Compare the complete scope

    Transfer equipment, placement, fuel connection and site preparation all affect the project. Generator size alone does not describe the installed system.

Good to know

Standby generator questions

Will a whole-home generator run everything at once?

Not necessarily. Coverage depends on the generator’s capacity, the home’s electrical demand and any load-management controls. Parks evaluates the loads you want to support before recommending a design.

Is this for portable generators?

This page covers permanently installed residential standby generators. It does not advertise portable or RV generator service.

Should I repair, replace or upgrade?

Compare repair, replacement and installation information.

Can Parks service a generator another company installed?

Have the manufacturer and model number ready when you call. Parks will confirm whether the equipment and requested work are supported before the appointment.

What should I know about costs?

Review prices, financing, membership details and any conditions.

What affects the cost of installation?

Equipment capacity, transfer-switch design, placement, fuel connection, site preparation and permitting can change the scope. Parks provides a project-specific proposal after evaluating your home.
