Sales and installation
Sales and installation of standby power systems is our main focus at Benchmark Electric.
A home backup generator is a major investment. However, there are quite a few steps involved for a successful and safe installation. Our staff of factory trained technicians streamline the process with a complete turnkey installation. We handle everything from proper generator sizing, electrical connections, to connection of natural gas or LP.
Multiple code enforcement permits are often required and a post-installation inspection by code enforcement verifies the integrity of the installation.
Benchmark Electric turnkey sales and installation of standby power systems means we handle everything from A-Z without homeowners having to deal with multiple contractors.
Choosing the right generator
Most generator manufacturers offer an online sizing calculator like this one at Cummins Power Generation. Online calculators help homeowners determine the right home backup generator for your unique needs. However, you will need to understand your home's electrical demand for heavy consumers such as heating and cooling systems, the clothes dryer, water well and pool pumps, if any, and major power consumers in the kitchen.
The best way to get the right generator is to work with one of our expert sales staff. Additionally, we understand sizing natural gas lines. With our knowledge and expertise, we help homeowners select the perfect generator based upon stated standby power needs and requirements. Generators can be sized to cover "just the essentials" or the whole house.
How Much is Everything Going to cost?
Equipment sales and installation costs will vary by system size, installation considerations, and local building codes. Whether homeowners desire whole house coverage or a few essential circuits, we will offer cost options to fit your needs and budget.
Benchmark Electric offers a free, onsite assessment to help homeowners evaluate costs and available options. We also offer financing solutions too!
The Installation Process
Benchmark Electric will prepare the installation site outside your home, place the generator on a concrete pad, run the natural gas or LP fuel line, install the transfer switch, and make all necessary electrical connections.
Code Enforcement inspections will be coordinated to ensure the integrity of the installation. Our team will place the generator in service so it's ready for any power outage. As a matter of fact, power outages will become a thing of the past. Future power outages will deliver peace of mind to loved ones.
