Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a whole house generator installation take in Boca Raton?
Most residential installations take one to two days once permits are approved. Permit approval from Palm Beach County typically takes 5–10 business days. We coordinate the entire process for you.
What size generator do I need for a whole house in Boca Raton?
Most Boca Raton homes between 2,000 and 3,500 sq ft require a 20–26 kW generator. Larger homes or those with pools, EV chargers, or multiple AC zones may need 26–36 kW. We perform a free load calculation to determine the right size.
Does a whole house generator run on natural gas or propane?
Both options are available. Natural gas is preferred when your home has existing gas service because it provides unlimited run time. Propane is ideal for homes without natural gas lines and requires an on-site tank.
Do I need a permit to install a generator in Boca Raton?
Yes. Palm Beach County requires an electrical permit for all standby generator installations. We pull all required permits and coordinate inspections on your behalf.
