Whole-Home Generators: Your Guide to Choosing and Installing a Backup Power Solution

When the lights go out, your life shouldn’t have to pause. Whether it’s a summer storm or a grid failure, a whole-home generator offers peace of mind and uninterrupted comfort. As a certified Generac dealer, Buchanan Electric specializes in turnkey backup power solutions that protect your home and business from unexpected outages.

Why Choose a Whole-Home Generator?

Unlike portable units, whole-home generators are permanently installed and automatically activate when the power goes out. They’re wired directly into your electrical system and fueled by natural gas or propane—no manual setup, no refueling, no hassle.

Key Benefits:

• Automatic Activation: No need to be home during an outage.

• Full Coverage: Powers essential systems like HVAC, refrigerators, sump pumps, and medical devices.

• Long-Term Reliability: Designed for extended use and minimal maintenance.

What Makes Generac Stand Out?

Generac is the #1 selling brand of home backup generators. Their systems are known for:

• Smart Monitoring via Mobile Link™

• Quiet Operation with advanced sound-dampening technology

• Scalable Power options for homes of all sizes

Buchanan Electric’s team is trained in Generac installation, ensuring your system is properly sized, safely installed, and fully compliant with local codes.
