Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to several top questions about Generac backup generators in Tampa, FL. Contact us at your convenience with any additional questions.
How does a Generac whole-home generator work?
A whole-home generator by Generac connects to your home’s electrical system through an ATS. The ATS monitors current in real-time, detects power outages, and automatically cycles on the generator as needed. Most Generac generators burn either natural gas or liquid propane to produce power. Once the system is on, it sends power throughout your home for lighting, HVAC equipment, refrigerators, freezers, and potentially more.
What size Generac generator is right for my home?
Many factors determine the optimal size for a standby generator installation. Our electricians will determine it based on your goals through custom load calculations. Smaller generators provide essential-circuit coverage: some lighting, HVAC, and refrigeration. Larger generators deliver managed whole-home coverage: kitchen appliances, internet equipment, televisions, and more.
Do Generac generators turn on automatically during outages?
A key advantage of a whole-home generator is that you don’t have to set it up and start it each time. The system’s ATS monitors the electrical current coming into the home. It detects disruptions and triggers the generator to cycle on as needed.
Does generator installation require permits?
You’ll generally need one or more permits for your Generac generator installation in Tampa. Our team will handle all aspects of acquiring the necessary permits and the local code-compliance inspections. We also have extensive experience navigating HOA requirements.
