• Power Outages Happen: Whether it’s a storm, grid failure, or scheduled maintenance, outages can last hours—or days. A backup generator gives you peace of mind.
• Protect Your Comfort and Safety: With a generator, you can maintain heating, cooling, lights, and medical equipment, even during extended blackouts.
• Safeguard Appliances and Electronics: Surges when power returns can damage sensitive electronics. Generators help regulate the return of power and prevent harm.
• Maintain Convenience: Keep essential appliances running—refrigerators, freezers, sump pumps, and security systems—without disruption.
• Increase Home Value: A professionally installed generator adds long-term value to your property and is a strong selling point for potential buyers.

At ION Electrical Services, we offer a wide range of generator options and services tailored to your home’s size, needs, and long-term goals:

• Standby Generators
  Permanently installed outside your home. These connect directly to your electrical system and can run on natural gas or propane.
• Portable Generators
  Movable units that you can plug into selected circuits or use with a transfer switch. Ideal for short-term or temporary backup.
• Automatic Transfer Switches
  We install transfer switches that automatically switch power from the grid to your generator when an outage occurs, ensuring seamless operation.
• Load Management Services
  We can set up a system that prioritizes essential loads (like medical devices or refrigerators), optimizing what your generator powers.
• Generator Maintenance & Testing
  Regular inspections, fuel checks, and exercises to ensure your generator runs reliably when you need it most.
• Generator Removal & Replacement
  If you already have a generator, we can evaluate its condition and recommend whether repair, replacement, or full upgrade is the best option.

Here’s how we deliver a seamless, efficient, and safe generator installation:

1. Site Evaluation & Power Assessment
   We begin with an on-site consultation to assess your home’s electrical load, determine which circuits need backup, and choose the right generator size.
2. Load Calculation & Design
   We calculate your essential and non-essential circuits and design a plan that ensures critical loads are always powered.
3. Permitting & Code Compliance
   We take care of all required permits, inspections, and paperwork, making sure the installation is compliant with local codes and regulations.
4. Transfer Switch Installation
   We install a properly rated automatic transfer switch, which safely disconnects your home from the grid when the generator kicks in.
5. Generator Placement & Setup
   We professionally place and mount the generator outdoors, following all ventilation, noise, and clearance requirements.
6. Wiring & Electrical Hook-up
   Our team connects the generator to your home’s electrical panel via the transfer switch, with secure, weather-resistant wiring.
7. Testing & Commissioning
   After installation, we run the generator through startup, load testing, and automatic transfer switch cycling to verify everything works correctly.
8. Training & Final Walk-Through
   We walk you through how to operate your system, show you maintenance basics, and provide documentation and safety guidance.
