We work with homeowners across South Carolina, whether you’re building anew, upgrading from an old system, or simply improving outage reliability. We help you compare standby versus portable options, size the generator to support essential circuits, and plan for fuel type and storage. The process includes securing any required permits, coordinating with your panel and utility where necessary, and performing a careful first run to confirm safe startup and smooth transfer.
