FAQs
Both are excellent generators, but for most Colorado homeowners, Generac is the stronger choice — and it’s the brand The Electricians is certified to install and service.
Generac advantages:
- Largest dealer and service network in Colorado — parts and technicians are readily available
- Runs a weekly self-test automatically so you know it’s ready before an outage hits
- Mobile Link app lets you monitor status remotely
- Generac’s 22kW is purpose-built for whole home coverage and is the most-installed unit in the Denver market
- 5-year limited warranty with authorized dealer installation
Kohler advantages:
- Marginally quieter operation
- Strong build quality with a loyal following
- Better option if aesthetics are a priority — Kohler units have a more finished exterior appearance
Most whole home generator installations are completed in one day — typically 6 to 8 hours for a standard installation. However, the full timeline from quote to running generator is usually 1 to 3 weeks, broken down as follows:
- Day 1: Free in-home estimate and load calculation
- Days 2–5: Permit application submitted to your municipality
- Days 5–14: Permit approval (varies by city — Denver and Centennial are typically faster than some suburban jurisdictions)
- Installation day: Generator placement, transfer switch installation, wiring, gas line connection, and testing — completed in a single visit
If your home requires a panel upgrade or a new gas line, add 1–2 additional days of work. The Electricians handles the permit process entirely — you don’t need to make a single call to the city. We schedule installation as soon as permits are approved and confirm the day before with a 2-hour arrival window.
Xcel Energy does not currently offer a direct rebate on generator units themselves, but as an Xcel Energy Trade Partner, The Electricians can help you access related incentive programs that reduce the overall cost of your installation. This includes rebates on qualifying electrical panel upgrades often required as part of a generator installation, and energy efficiency incentives tied to certain generator configurations. Additionally, a whole home generator can qualify for federal tax incentives when paired with solar or battery storage systems. Rules and availability change — contact us for a current breakdown of what incentives apply to your specific project before you purchase.
The right generator size depends on what you want to power during an outage. Here’s a simple guide for Colorado homes:
- 10–14kW — Powers essentials: lights, refrigerator, furnace, outlets, and a few appliances. Best for smaller homes under 1,500 sq ft.
- 18–22kW — Powers your entire home including central AC, well pump, and multiple appliances simultaneously. The most popular choice for 1,500–3,000 sq ft homes in Denver.
- 24–36kW — Large homes over 3,000 sq ft, homes with electric vehicle chargers, or properties with high electrical demand.
A licensed electrician will perform a load calculation during your estimate to determine the exact right size for your home. Oversizing wastes money; undersizing means the generator trips during heavy use. The Electricians recommends Generac’s 22kW unit for most Denver-area homes — it handles Colorado winters including furnaces, sump pumps, and refrigeration without strain.
Yes. A properly installed and well-documented generator can increase resale value and is a major selling point for Colorado buyers.
