Keep your heat, sump pump, fridge and lights running through Ontario storms with an automatic standby generator — or a safe, code-compliant portable hookup.
Standby generator · Cambridge & Brantford
When the grid goes down, the right setup keeps the essentials running automatically — no cords, no risk.
A standby unit senses the outage and starts within seconds — your furnace, fridge and sump pump stay on whether you are home or not.
Keep heat, a running sump pump, food in the freezer, a well pump and medical equipment going through multi-day outages.
A proper automatic transfer switch or interlock means no dangerous back-feeding that can endanger utility crews.
On a budget? We install an inlet and interlock kit so you can safely power your home from a portable generator.
From sizing to the final test, here is what a generator install covers.
We figure out what you want backed up — essentials only or the whole home — and size the unit.
Fixed quote, then permit and ESA inspection scheduled.
Generator set, transfer switch wired, fuel and pad coordinated.
We run it under load, confirm the auto-start, and show you how it works.
Every job is quoted up front and free. A few things move the price — here are the main ones.
A standby generator is automatic and best if you want hands-off, multi-day backup. A portable hookup with an interlock kit is a lower-cost option if you do not mind starting and connecting a portable unit yourself.
It depends on whether you want to back up a few essential circuits or the whole house. We total your critical loads and size the unit so it runs them comfortably.
Both work. Natural gas means no refuelling if you have a gas line; propane is common where gas is not available. We coordinate either as part of the install.
No — back-feeding through an outlet is dangerous to you and to utility crews. We install a proper interlock or transfer switch so a portable can be connected safely.
