What’s Included in a Site Survey?

Every generator installation begins with a detailed on-site evaluation. Our technicians will assess your property, electrical systems, and fuel access to determine the optimal solution for your needs. During your site survey, we’ll:

Evaluate generator placement for safety and code compliance

Determine proper generator size based on your power needs

Identify electrical and gas line requirements

Review zoning, HOA rules, or local restrictions

Discuss fuel options (propane or natural gas)

The result: a clear, custom plan tailored to your property, budget, and goals.
