FAQ

Generator Installation and Replacement Q&A with Prime Energy Solutions

Installation Services

What is the first step in getting a generator installed by Prime Energy Solutions?

The process typically begins with a free, on-site consultation and quote. A technician will assess your specific power needs, the size of your property, and the required placement for the new generator.


Does Prime Energy Solutions install both residential and commercial generators?

Yes. They provide full-service installation for both residential standby generators (for homes) and commercial generators (for businesses, offices, and industrial properties) to ensure critical power is maintained during an outage.


What is included in a typical generator installation service?

A complete installation includes:
  • Site assessment and generator sizing.
  • The purchase and delivery of the new generator unit.
  • All necessary electrical and gas connections.
  • Installation of the automatic transfer switch (ATS).
  • Handling of all required permits and inspections.
  • Start-up, testing, and a final walkthrough with the customer.


What generator brands does Prime Energy Solutions install?

They are authorized dealers for leading brands, including Generac, Kohler, and Champion, and can install a wide range of models and power outputs from these manufacturers.

Replacement Services

How do I know if I need a generator replacement versus a repair?

A replacement is generally recommended if your existing generator is over 15-20 years old, requires frequent, costly repairs, or if the parts needed for repair are obsolete. A technician can assess the unit's condition and provide an honest cost-benefit analysis.


If I replace my old generator, will Prime Energy Solutions handle the removal of the old unit?

Yes. Their replacement service includes the professional decommissioning and removal of the old generator unit, ensuring it is disposed of or recycled properly according to local regulations.


Can Prime Energy Solutions help me upgrade my generator to a larger size?

Absolutely. If your home or business power needs have grown (e.g., adding new HVAC units or equipment), they can perform an assessment and recommend a higher-capacity replacement generator to meet your current requirements.
