Whole House Generator Installation Process

After zoning is approved, your whole home generator is delivered, trenching for gas and/or electric is done, as needed.
Electrician begins installation by running electric lines and installing the automatic transfer switch.
Our plumber or your gas company run the gas lines to your standby generator and performs a pressure test on the connection.
Once the initial inspection is completed and approved, the remainder of the electrical and plumbing work is scheduled and completed.
A certified Cannondale Generators technician installs the battery, starts the generator for the first time, and performs a test of the circuits on the unit. The technician then explains the various parts of the generator, how and when it operates, and answers any questions the homeowner has.
A final inspection with the city or town is scheduled. Once the installation is approved, a certificate of approval is issued, and the installation is complete.
The owner enjoys seamless power and comfort throughout the year. Plus, get annual maintenance and testing with our Scheduled Maintenance Agreement.

GENERATORS THAT POWER IT ALL

Keep Your Lights On

Darkness brings danger. According to the National Fire Protection Association, 3% of all home fire deaths are caused by candles – many when candles are used for emergency light or warmth. Safety is one of the top reasons people seek a home standby generator. When your lights stay on, you continue with your normal life. You don’t have to worry about candles or whether you have enough batteries. Keep your lights on with a standby generator to:

  • Prevent Falls or Property Damage
  • Deter Home Invasions or Theft
  • Provide Security for Your Loved Ones

Staying Connected to the Outside World

Even when the power is on, you still get a little antsy when your cell phone battery gets low right? Imagine that feeling when there is no power to charge your phone – perhaps for days. Suddenly you feel isolated and disconnected. Whole home standby generators keep all of your electronics charged and running as usual. From computers to security systems and cell phones to tablets — you’ll never run out of power and feel disconnected when you have a standby generator for your home.

  •       Stay Protected and Connected
  •       Keep Cell Phones Charged
  •       Avoid File Loss from Computers

Glorious Warm Water

Sure, you can mathematically prove that a standby generator ultimately saves money over time, but that doesn’t come close to feeling as good as a warm shower when the power has been out for several days. At that exact instant, you’ll say “Why didn’t I do this years sooner?”

Warm in the Winter and Cool in the Summer

You’ve felt it. You’ve felt how quickly the temperature in your house drops during a winter storm without heat. Today’s home standby generators easily have enough power to keep your house warm without the danger of space heaters. Think about this: nearly half of all house fires are caused by space heaters. Yes, almost half. When the power goes out this winter and you are all nice and warm thanks to your Cannondale standby generator, remember that you also took an enormous step to keep your family safe.

  • Eliminate the Danger of Space Heaters
  • Stay Cool When It’s Hot
  • Keep Comfort On When Power’s Off
  • Be Warm When It’s Freezing

Backup Power for Refrigerators

What is the dollar value of the food you have in your refrigerator, right now? Given how much food costs today, we bet it is a pretty significant number. Standby generators prevent devastating food, beverage, and/or medication losses that occur when a home is without power for an extended period of time. If you’ve lived in southern Connecticut or northern New York for even the shortest amount of time, we bet you’ve thrown away almost a paycheck’s worth of food in the last year due to a power outage. You don’t have to. Thousands of families use a home standby generator to:

  • Prevent Food from Spoiling
  • Keep Medications Refrigerated
  • Save Money in Unexpected Outages

What Our Customers Say...

“Cannondale came out to fix my father’s generator and they did an amazing job for a great price! Another contractor didn’t even want to fix the generator and they told my dad it would cost $10,000 to replace it. Cannondale came out, replaced a few switches and got the generator back up and running for $700. Amazing service, fast response, I highly recommend them to anybody for the generator servicing needs.”

“Cannondale provided great service on our annual maintenance visit. The technician was quick and left the area neat. He told me what service he performed and I’m confident that we will be ready for the next power outage. I appreciate that the main office provides good communication in advance of service visits.”

Made installation of our generator extremely easy. Took care of all permitting with the town and made the process very simple. After a major power outage, they sent their service team in a snowstorm to service the generator and ensure it would keep us going throughout the snowstorm. Excellent service. Very pleased with this company.
