Whole House Generator

Are You Tired Of Losing Power Every Time A Storm Hits?

Are you tired of throwing out hundreds of dollars in spoiled groceries every time the power grid fails? Does your family lose air conditioning, heat, and basic lighting the moment a severe storm rolls through? Relying on an aging, unstable power grid leaves your home vulnerable and your family deeply uncomfortable.

Hauling a loud, heavy portable generator out of the garage in the pouring rain is frustrating and dangerous. Running extension cords through cracked windows compromises your home's security and lets the harsh weather indoors. You need a permanent backup solution that activates instantly without you ever having to lift a finger. As part of our Generator Services solutions, we ensure top quality.

Automatic Power When You Need It Most

We install whole house standby generators that provide automatic, seamless backup power the second an outage occurs. The system is wired directly into your electrical panel and constantly monitors the incoming utility voltage. If it detects a drop or total failure, the generator automatically starts and transfers power to your home within seconds.

You do not even need to be home for the system to work. It runs on your existing natural gas or liquid propane supply, so there is no need to constantly refill dirty gas cans. When the utility power is restored, the generator seamlessly switches back to the grid and shuts itself down.

Protect Your Critical Comfort Systems

A standby generator ensures your most important household systems never skip a beat. Your central air conditioning continues to run, keeping the house cool and preventing indoor humidity from skyrocketing. Your refrigerator stays cold, your security system remains active, and your medical devices stay powered.

It is an incredible layer of protection against the financial and physical toll of long-term outages. You avoid the cost of hotel stays, frozen pipes, and lost food. Your home remains a safe, comfortable sanctuary regardless of what is happening with the weather outside.

Warning Signs Your Home Is Vulnerable To Outages

If you live in an area prone to severe weather, high winds, or rolling grid blackouts, your property is at constant risk. Even brief, frequent power blips can damage sensitive electronics and slowly degrade the motors in your major appliances. If you constantly find yourself resetting the microwave clock, your grid connection is unstable.

Homes with well water systems face an even greater risk during an outage. Without electricity, your well pump stops working, leaving you completely without running water for drinking or sanitation. Losing both power and water simultaneously turns a minor inconvenience into a major household emergency.

Ditch The Dangerous Portable Units

Portable generators pose significant safety risks if not operated perfectly. The danger of carbon monoxide poisoning is incredibly high if the unit is placed too close to the home or near an open window. Refueling a hot engine in the dark is a fire hazard that no homeowner should have to deal with.

A professionally installed standby unit sits safely outside your home, housed in a durable, weather-resistant enclosure. It operates much quieter than portable models and performs weekly self-tests to ensure it is always ready to run. You eliminate the physical labor and safety risks entirely.

Increased Property Value And Peace Of Mind

Investing in a permanent backup power system significantly increases the value and marketability of your property. Future buyers see a standby unit as a premium upgrade that guarantees safety and convenience. It is an investment that pays dividends through both immediate peace of mind and long-term equity.

You can rest easy knowing that your family is protected whether you are sleeping upstairs or vacationing in another state. You will never have to rush home to save the freezer or check on the sump pump. Complete electrical independence is just a phone call away.

What To Expect During Your Generator Installation

When you contact Mackey Services, we start by conducting a thorough load calculation of your home's electrical system. We discuss which appliances and circuits you want to back up during an outage. You can choose to power the entire house or select critical circuits like the kitchen, HVAC, and master bedroom.

We help you select the right size unit from trusted, industry-leading manufacturers. Our team handles all the necessary permits, concrete pad pouring, and fuel line connections. We manage the entire project so you do not have to coordinate multiple contractors.

Expert Electrical Integration

Our licensed electricians wire the automatic transfer switch directly into your main electrical panel. This is the brain of the operation, safely isolating your home from the grid to protect utility workers from dangerous back-feed. We ensure every connection is flawless and strictly up to code.

Once the installation is complete, we simulate a power outage to demonstrate exactly how the system responds. We walk you through the owner's manual and explain the meaning of the external indicator lights. Mackey Services ensures you are completely comfortable with your new equipment before we leave the property.

Reliable Maintenance For Long-Term Readiness

Like any internal combustion engine, a standby generator requires routine maintenance to perform reliably. We provide comprehensive tune-up services, including oil changes, spark plug replacements, and battery checks. Regular maintenance ensures the engine will crank flawlessly when the next storm hits.

If your system ever displays an error code, our repair technicians are ready to diagnose and fix the issue. We stock the replacement parts needed to keep your unit in perfect working order. We are dedicated to ensuring your backup power is always there when you need it.
