Why Prescott Valley Homeowners Choose a GENERAC Standby Generator

A portable generator can be helpful in a pinch, but most families prefer a permanent solution that starts automatically and powers the circuits that matter most.

A GENERAC standby generator can help you:

  • Keep refrigerators and freezers running.

  • Maintain internet and home office equipment.

  • Power lighting, garage access, and security systems.

  • Support key medical devices and essential outlets.

  • Stay more comfortable during extended outages.

Why Switch to Sustainable, Clean Energy Options?

Many homeowners start researching backup power because something is not working with their current setup, whether that means rising bills, unreliable service, or a desire to protect their home’s electronics and equipment.

High Energy Bills

Summer in Prescott Valley often means heavy AC use. If you are looking for a smarter home power plan, we can walk you through options that fit your goals, for some homeowners, that includes battery storage and energy management. For others, the priority is dependable outage protection through a standby generator.

Little to No Backup Energy

If your home is fully dependent on the grid, an outage can quickly shut down essential services. A standby generator provides a reliable and automatic plan, eliminating the need for scrambling for extension cords or making last-minute fuel runs.

The Environment

Many homeowners want to reduce waste and protect what they already own. Power events can damage appliances and electronics over time. A well-planned backup solution can minimize disruptions and help protect critical equipment.

Introducing GENERAC Generators

GENERAC is one of the most recognized names in backup power. Homeowners choose GENERAC for reliable standby systems, strong product support, and proven performance.

When you work with Assurance Electrical Services, you get a local team that understands electrical safety, proper load planning, and clean installation. That is what makes a generator system dependable, not just the equipment itself.

GENERAC Generator Options We Install and Support

As a Certified Partner of GENERAC Generators, we help you select the right system for your home and install it with safe electrical integration.

Home Standby Generators

A permanently installed standby generator is designed to start automatically during an outage. We can design your backup plan around essential circuits or expand coverage based on your priorities and your home’s electrical demands.

Transfer Switch Installation

A transfer switch is a required part of a safe generator setup. It isolates your home from the utility during an outage and prevents backfeeding. It also routes power to the circuits you choose for backup.

Portable Generators

Portable Generators

Portable generators can be useful for short outages, temporary power, and camping. If you are considering a portable unit, we can help you understand safe operation and realistic expectations.

Parts and Accessories

If your GENERAC generator requires maintenance, troubleshooting, or part replacement, Assurance Electrical Services can help keep the system dependable.

Whole-Home Backup or Essential Circuits

Not every home needs the same level of coverage. During your consultation, we help you decide between:

  • Essential-circuit backup
    Focuses on the items you rely on most, like refrigeration, lighting, internet, select outlets, and key appliances.

  • Whole-home style backup
    More complete coverage based on your home’s electrical demands and system design. A strong fit for homeowners who want fewer limitations during an outage.

We will walk you through what each option looks like in real life so you can choose what fits your home and budget.

What Size GENERAC Generator Do I Need?

Generator sizing should be based on real loads. The right size depends on what you want to power and how your home is wired.

With a generator rated at 5,000 to 7,500 watts, you can run even the most critical household equipment, including things such as a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. A 7500-watt generator can run all these appliances at once. For RV use, a 3000-4000-watt generator will work great.

During an on-site assessment, we review:

  • Your must-have circuits during an outage

  • Starting load vs running load for major equipment

  • Electrical panel capacity and circuit layout

  • Placement, clearances, and fuel supply options

If you want to support larger loads, such as heating and cooling equipment, we will explain what it takes and what makes sense for your home.

Permits and Code Compliance in Prescott Valley

Generator installations often require permits and must meet local code requirements. If your project requires permitting or inspection steps, we explain the applicable requirements and help manage the process to ensure the installation is completed correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. A transfer switch is what safely connects generator power to your home’s electrical system while keeping it isolated from the utility. That separation prevents dangerous backfeeding, which can injure utility workers, damage equipment, and create fire risk. GENERAC also warns against “backfeeding” a panel and emphasizes the use of proper transfer equipment for safe operation. For standby systems, the transfer switch automatically transfers your home from utility power to generator power during an outage and back again when the grid returns.

The on-site installation is often measured in hours, but the full timeline is usually longer because of planning and approvals. GENERAC notes that while the physical install can be completed in hours, the preparation can take multiple weeks depending on dealer availability, site readiness, fuel work, and permitting. In Prescott Valley, projects that involve adding or changing a generator may require submittals, such as a site plan with diagrams and manufacturer specifications, which also impact scheduling. After the assessment, a clear timeline is easier to confirm.

Often yes, but it depends on your AC’s running watts, its higher starting watts, and what else you want powered at the same time. Central AC can draw thousands of watts while running and typically needs extra surge capacity at startup, so sizing is not just about the nameplate number on the generator. A standby generator, paired with a properly installed transfer switch, can power HVAC systems when the system is sized and configured correctly, sometimes with load management or a soft start, depending on the equipment. The safest way to determine this is through a load calculation and equipment review.

When permits and inspections are required, we can help manage the process and keep it straightforward. Prescott Valley’s permit resources outline the process for submitting applications and documents through their Development Services. For generator-related electrical work, the Town’s miscellaneous electrical application process requires items such as a site plan with diagrams, generator location and clearances, fuel storage details, pipe sizing for natural gas or LPG, and manufacturer’s specifications and installation instructions. Handling these details up front helps avoid delays later.

Yes. Standby generators run most efficiently when serviced on a regular schedule, not just when something breaks. GENERAC recommends annual maintenance to support proper operation and longevity, and their guidance includes checks such as battery inspection, leak checks, corrosion inspections, and oil and filter changes based on time and run hours. Maintenance also helps catch small issues, such as weak batteries or minor fuel problems, before an outage reveals them the hard way. If your generator displays a maintenance reminder or you’re interested in a recurring service plan, maintenance, and repair support, keep it dependable.

Not always. Many homeowners opt for essential circuit backup, which powers the items that matter most, such as refrigeration, lighting, internet, medical needs, and a few key outlets, without sizing the system to accommodate everything in the house. GENERAC’s own homeowner guide describes standby systems that can power an entire home or selected circuits, so the right setup depends on your priorities, budget, and how you use power during an outage. If you want AC, cooking, and full home comfort, whole-home sizing may fit, but it is not required for most people to get meaningful backup.

Sometimes, it’s just a dimmer compatibility issue. But if all your lights are flickering, that’s different.

Arizona heat can cause connections in outdoor panels to expand and loosen over time.

Changing a bulb or dimmer is fine. However, a licensed electrician should do anything involving wiring, breakers, or panels.
