Benefits Of A Home Generator

A home generator provides backup electricity when utility power goes out. Depending on its size and configuration, benefits can include:

  • Automatic backup power. Standby generators can restore power automatically after detecting an outage.

  • Essential systems stay powered. Keep selected HVAC equipment, refrigeration, lighting, sump pumps, and other circuits running.

  • Fewer outage disruptions. Maintain access to important electrical systems during longer outages.

  • No portable generator setup. A permanently installed system eliminates the need to set up temporary backup power during an outage.

Steps To Installing A Home Generator

Installing a standby generator requires planning around the home’s electrical loads, generator capacity, equipment location, and electrical connections. Wenbrooke handles the process through several key steps.

Determine Your Backup Power Needs

We identify which circuits and systems you want available during an outage. This helps determine the generator capacity your home needs.

Select The Generator And Location

We select the generator based on the planned electrical load and installation requirements. We also determine an appropriate outdoor location for the equipment.

Prepare The Electrical System

Our electricians evaluate the panel and existing electrical setup before installation. If related work is needed, Wenbrooke’s electrical services can address it as part of the project.

Install The Generator And Transfer Equipment

We install and connect the generator and transfer equipment to the home’s electrical system. The transfer equipment allows the designated circuits to receive generator power when utility service is interrupted.

Test The Backup Power System

After installation, the generator and transfer operation are tested to confirm the system responds and supplies the intended electrical loads properly.

Signs Your Generator Needs Repair

A generator should be ready to supply power when an outage occurs, so changes in performance deserve attention before the system is needed. Schedule generator repair if the unit struggles to start, shuts down unexpectedly, produces unusual noises or odors, shows warning lights or fault codes, leaks fluid, or fails to transfer power correctly during testing. Wenbrooke can diagnose the generator and its electrical connections to determine what is preventing reliable operation.

Zach was our technician today and he was professional, polite, and was thorough with the inspection. Based off of our description of the electrical issue, he assessed what the problem was and the equipment necessary to fix it, so when he arrived, evaluated the electrical issue, he was prepared to replace the unit that day. Top notch customer service and warranty on work. We are a Wenbrooke customer for life. I forgot to mention that I called in the morning, and Wenbrooke scheduled the repair for the same day!

8/13: Kevin was polite and knew his job well when he came over to provide an estimate for multiple small electrical jobs. He gave cheaper options and the benefits and costs of higher options. I will request for him when I get the parts and schedule the follow up appointment

9/16: Zachary was very polite and brought along a helper, Eli, who he was training. They did the job quickly, though could not finish the lighting replacement because I had bought the wrong type of bulbs. Did everything else so I just have to put in the new bulbs and replace the cover. Great experience.
11/6: Jamie, the plumber was very good. Clearly diagnosed the issue and gave the estimate. Also explained where we would need a home contractor to finish the job as Wenbrooke does not do drywall work.

Yet again we have had a very good technician from Wenbrooke come to the house and take care of things for us.  We had water starting to drip from our kitchen ceiling. Chris P. did a great job of working out where the leak was taking place in an upstairs bathroom (we could not see it!!) and then explaining the options, helping us choose and then making the repair.
Thanks again Wenbrooke for great service

Jorge was awesome..! Polite, patient, respectful and very knowledgeably assessed and diagnosed our HVAC air distribution problems. His paperwork was quick and has set us up for addressing our issues. Additionally, he wore shoe covers without asking. If you get Christina at the front desk and Jorge you’re in great hands. They’re both a credit to Wenbrooke. Great first impression as a new customer…!!!
