Mechanical Heating, Cooling & Electrical understands the importance of keeping your home safe, comfortable, and fully operational, even when the weather has other plans. That’s why we offer whole-home generator solutions designed to provide reliable backup power during unexpected outages.

Whole-Home Generator Overview

What is a whole-home generator?

A whole-home generator is a permanently installed backup power system that automatically supplies electricity to your home during an outage. It connects to your home’s electrical panel and runs on natural gas or propane, ensuring essential systems like heating, cooling, and appliances continue operating without interruption.

This type of generator activates within seconds of a power loss, maintaining comfort and safety during storms or unexpected outages.

How does a whole-home generator work?

A whole-home generator works by detecting a power outage and automatically turning on to restore electricity within seconds. It sends power directly to your home’s electrical panel and continues running until utility power is fully restored, then shuts off safely.

 

For example, during a storm-related outage, the system activates automatically without requiring manual setup or intervention.

Power Your Home With a Generac Home Generator

A permanently installed Generac home backup generator protects your home automatically. It runs on natural gas or liquid propane (LP) fuel and sits outside like a central air conditioning unit.

A home backup generator supplies power directly to your electrical system, supporting your entire home or just essential systems, depending on your setup.

With Mobile Link™, you can monitor your generator’s status from your phone, tablet, or computer—anytime, anywhere.

Generator FAQs

Are whole-home generators worth it?

Whole-home generators are worth it for homeowners who want reliable, automatic backup power during outages. They protect essential systems, reduce disruption, maintain comfort during severe weather or grid failures, and ensure safety by keeping critical devices operational at all times.

For instance, a generator can keep your HVAC system, refrigerator, and lighting running during extended outages, preventing inconvenience and potential damage.

Do whole-home generators need maintenance?

Yes, whole-home generators need maintenance to operate reliably when needed. Regular service includes system inspections, testing, and checking fuel connections to ensure proper startup and performance during outages. Routine maintenance prevents unexpected failures and extends the lifespan of your generator system.

It is recommended to schedule maintenance annually, ideally before the winter and summer seasons, to ensure reliable operation during outages.

How long does a whole-home generator last?

A whole-home generator typically lasts 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. Lifespan depends on usage, service frequency, and environmental conditions, including exposure to weather and load demands. Following recommended maintenance schedules helps prevent failures and maximize performance over time.

For example, a generator that is serviced annually and used only during occasional outages can last closer to 20 years, while heavy, frequent use may shorten its lifespan.

What size generator do you need for a home?

The right generator size depends on your home’s square footage and the electrical load you want to cover. Most homes require a system that powers essential appliances, HVAC systems, and lighting simultaneously. It is recommended to calculate your total wattage needs before purchasing a generator.

A 3,500–7,500-watt generator can usually run essential loads in a medium-sized home, while larger homes often need about 10,000–20,000 watts for broader or whole-home coverage.
