## Generator Installation in Chino Hills, CA

Backup power only helps if the switching works when nobody is home. Automatic transfer switches, interlocks and battery systems all need to isolate from the utility cleanly, and that is where a bad install becomes dangerous for line crews as well as for you.

Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

## Situations we see in Chino Hills

### Extension cords through a window

Common and genuinely dangerous. An inlet box and interlock costs a fraction of a standby unit and ends the practice.

### Whole house or essential circuits

A critical-load subpanel is far cheaper than whole-house coverage and keeps heat, refrigeration and internet running. We price both.

### Not sure what size to buy

We meter and calculate rather than estimate. Most Chino Hills homes land between 14kW and 26kW depending on AC, well pumps and electric ranges.

### Existing generator won't start on outage

Usually the transfer switch, the battery or the exercise routine, not the engine. We diagnose the switching first.

## Reviews from San Bernardino County

★★★★★

Zinsco panel replaced. Straight quote, one day of work, and they handled the utility disconnect scheduling so I didn't have to call anyone.

Standby generator install. They sized it to what we actually use rather than the biggest unit, then walked me through the transfer switch and the exercise cycle.

GFCI in the bathroom kept tripping. They found real leakage in an old fixture rather than just replacing the GFCI and calling it done.

## Generator Installation in Chino Hills — questions

How much does a whole house generator cost in Chino Hills?

The unit is roughly half the project. The rest is the transfer switch, pad, gas line, electrical and permit. Sizing drives everything, so call (833) 652-8933 and we will run a load study before quoting.

Will the generator start automatically when the power goes out?

With an automatic transfer switch, yes, typically within 10 to 30 seconds. With a manual switch or interlock you start it and flip the switch yourself, which is a cheaper install.

Can you install a battery instead of a generator in Chino Hills?

Yes. Battery backup runs silent, needs no fuel and pairs with solar, but has a fixed energy budget. For multi-day PSPS events a generator still wins on runtime.

How often does a standby generator need service?

An annual service plus the weekly self-exercise cycle. The exercise routine matters more than owners expect, because it is what catches a dead battery before an outage does.

Do I need a permit to install a generator in Chino Hills?

Yes, and often a gas permit too. We handle the electrical permit and inspection and coordinate with your gas contractor or plumber.
