Why Purchase a Standby Generator from Switch Electric
With over a decade of experience and a reputation for exceptional service, it’s no wonder that homeowners across the Pacific Northwest choose Switch Electric for their standby generator purchase, installation, and service needs. Here’s what sets us apart from other generator dealers in the Seattle and Walla Walla metropolitan areas.
The Switch Advantage
All our work is done in house by our experienced and extensively trained team. We are able to provide quality and service above the rest because of this, along with service and warranty should your generator need it.
Turnkey Solutions
Standby generators are permanently installed, usually on the side of a house. They are set to turn on automatically, even if you’re away from home, so after the power goes out, you won’t need to connect cables or flip any switches to start your generator. Depending on the model you choose, you can also power your entire home with your standby generator.
Authorized Generac Dealer
Switch Electric is an authorized Generac generator dealer. When you purchase your standby generator from an authorized dealer, you get a full warranty on it. If you work with an unauthorized dealer and your generator breaks down, you may have to pay for repairs or replacement on your own. By purchasing a generator from an authorized dealer like Switch, you can save money and enjoy greater peace of mind when the power goes out.
Your Standby Generator FAQs Answered
Whether you’ve just purchased a standby generator or you’ve owned one for years, we can answer your questions and help keep your appliances running during a power outage.
Can I use a standby generator to power my entire home?
Yes. Some standby generator models can power an entire home. We can discuss these options with you as part of your free quote.
What are some of the disadvantages of using a standby generator?
Installing a standby or permanently installed generator can be a big investment, and we realize not all families will be able to take advantage of this type of system due to cost. There also might be issues with placement around the home, or having natural gas or propane available to fuel it. If a standby generator system doesn’t work for you, Switch Electric also offers affordable solutions to power your essential circuits in your home from a portable gasoline generator.
How large of a standby generator do I need?
The type of standby generator you need depends on how much electricity you use and what type of circuits you want to back up during an outage. A typical home needs a 7,000-watt generator to keep the basics, like HVAC systems and refrigerators, running. However, we can work with you to find the best possible solution for your specific needs and household size.
