Why a Whole-Home Standby Generator
- Automatic backup power — switches on within seconds of an outage, whether you're home or away.
- Keeps the essentials running — heat, refrigeration, sump pump, medical equipment, lights, and Wi-Fi.
- Protects your home — prevents frozen pipes in winter and a flooded basement when the sump pump loses power.
- Permanently installed — sits outside like an AC unit; no extension cords or refueling during the storm.
- Runs on your existing fuel — natural gas or propane, so you're not hauling gasoline.
- Adds home value & peace of mind — a feature buyers notice and a comfort you'll appreciate every outage.
We Install Kohler Standby Generators
Caron installs Kohler whole-home standby generators — a trusted name built for reliable, automatic backup power. We match the generator to your home’s actual power needs so it runs what you count on without overspending on capacity you don’t need. Every installation includes the automatic transfer switch, electrical connections, and fuel hookup, completed to code by licensed professionals.
Our Generator Installation Process
1. Free In-Home Assessment
We review your home’s electrical needs, the circuits you want backed up, and the best location for the unit.
2. Correct Sizing
We size your generator to your priorities — whole-home coverage or the essential circuits — so it performs when you need it.
3. Clear, Upfront Quote
You get a detailed quote with your options and financing through Synchrony if you’d like to spread out the investment — ask about current options.
4. Professional Installation
Our licensed team sets the generator, wires the automatic transfer switch, connects your natural gas or propane, and handles the permitting.
5. Testing & Walkthrough
We test the automatic startup, confirm everything runs, and show you how your new generator works.
Standby vs. Portable Generators
A portable generator can run a few things in a pinch, but it needs to be hauled out, refueled with gasoline, and run outside on cords — and it won’t turn on while you’re away. A whole-home standby generator is permanently installed, runs on your natural gas or propane, and starts automatically the moment the power drops. For reliable, hands-off backup power, standby is the clear choice for most homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions — Whole-Home Generators
How much does a whole-home generator cost?
It depends on the size of the generator and your home’s electrical and fuel setup. We provide a free, detailed quote up front — with financing options if you’d like to spread out the cost.
What size generator do I need?
It depends on whether you want to power your whole home or just essential circuits (heat, refrigerator, sump pump, lights). We assess your needs during a free in-home visit and size the generator correctly — never a guess.
Does a standby generator turn on automatically?
Yes. A whole-home standby generator monitors your power and starts automatically within seconds of an outage, then shuts off when utility power returns — even if you’re not home.
What fuel does a whole-home generator use?
Most run on natural gas or propane, connected to your existing fuel supply — so there’s no gasoline to store or refill.
How long does installation take?
Most residential generator installations are completed in a day or two, depending on the electrical and fuel work involved. We’ll give you a clear timeline with your quote.
