ULTIMATE PEACE OF MIND
Uninterrupted Power for Total Home Security
A whole-home generator from Gary & Sons is your family’s best defense against power disruptions. It’s more than just keeping the lights on; it’s about maintaining normalcy and security when the unexpected happens. Your home’s essential systems continue to run without a second thought. The sump pump keeps the basement dry, the refrigerator preserves your food, and the heating and cooling systems maintain a comfortable living environment, no matter the weather outside.
This continuous power is especially critical for households with vulnerable family members. If you rely on powered medical equipment, such as oxygen concentrators or mobility aids, a standby generator provides a literal lifeline. It ensures these devices operate without interruption, offering invaluable security and removing the stress and uncertainty that comes with every storm warning.
CONVENIENCE & RELIABILITY
Power Your Home Automatically and Effortlessly
The core of a modern backup power system is the automatic transfer switch (ATS). This intelligent device constantly monitors the electrical feed from the utility. The moment it detects an interruption, it safely disconnects your home from the grid and signals the generator to start, typically restoring full power to your designated circuits in a matter of seconds. You don’t have to do a thing.
This seamless transition means you no longer have to worry about being home to start a generator or the danger of venturing out into a storm to refuel a noisy, portable unit. The process is completely hands-free, providing ultimate convenience whether you are at home, at work, or on vacation. When utility power is restored, the ATS automatically switches you back to the grid and shuts the generator down, placing it back in standby mode for the next event.
Beyond the automatic operation, whole-home generators are professionally connected to your property’s natural gas or propane supply, eliminating the need for constant refueling. They perform weekly self-tests to ensure they are always ready to run when needed, offering a level of reliability and convenience that portable generators simply cannot match. It is the most robust and effortless solution for keeping your home and family safe.

GENERATOR QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right generator can feel complex, but we’re here to help. Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive from homeowners in our community about installing and maintaining a whole-home generator.
What size generator do I need for my house?
The right size depends on what you want to power. A smaller unit might cover essentials like your furnace, well pump, and refrigerator, while a larger one can power your entire home. Our experts perform a detailed load calculation during your consultation to recommend the perfect size for your needs.
How does an automatic transfer switch (ATS) work?
The ATS is the brain of your system. It continuously monitors utility power. When it detects an outage, it automatically disconnects your home from the grid and signals the generator to start, restoring power in seconds. When utility power returns, it reverses the process automatically.
How much does a whole-home generator cost?
The cost varies based on the size of the generator, the complexity of the installation, and fuel source requirements. We provide a detailed, all-inclusive quote after our free on-site consultation, so you know the full cost upfront.
What kind of fuel do standby generators use?
Most whole-home generators run on natural gas or liquid propane (LP). We connect the unit directly to your home’s existing fuel supply, so you never have to worry about refueling during an outage.
How often does my generator need maintenance?
To ensure reliability, generators require regular maintenance, much like a car. We recommend annual service performed by a certified technician. This includes an oil change, filter replacements, and a thorough inspection to ensure it’s ready for the next outage. We offer comprehensive service plans to make this easy.
