STANDBY POWER + COMPLETE PROJECT SUPPORT
We match the generator to the loads that matter and integrate electrical and fuel work with your existing home systems so the finished backup system works as intended.
Generator Brands We Install, Service & Repair
The RightFirst Standard
A permanent standby generator touches more than one trade. Our team keeps the electrical work, fuel piping, site work, and startup under one roof, then stands behind the finished installation.
Your electrical panel, cooling equipment, and selected circuits set the starting point. We account for the systems already at the house before generator and transfer choices are finalized, so the project fits the home you actually own.
Wiring and fuel piping should be neat, protected, and accessible. We pay attention to routing, equipment placement, and how the finished work sits on the property.
When the installation is complete, Dave's remains your team for questions and future service. You have a familiar company to call if your backup system needs attention.

Generator Questions
Generator size depends on the equipment you expect to run at the same time. We account for running demand, starting demand, and the capacity of your electrical service. A refrigerator needs far less power than central AC or a well pump. Square footage alone does not determine the right size.
Whole-home backup is intended to support most or all of the home's usual circuits, subject to the generator's capacity and system design. Critical-load backup supplies chosen essentials such as refrigeration, lighting, internet equipment, and a garage door opener. We help you compare the coverage you want with what the home can support.
An automatic transfer switch detects a utility outage and moves the selected home loads to generator power based on the installed system design. It keeps generator power separated from the utility supply. That separation is important for safe operation.
Standby generators commonly use natural gas or propane. Natural gas at your address must be confirmed with Fountain Inn Natural Gas before it is treated as an option. We also confirm that the fuel supply can meet the generator's requirements.
Standby generators are installed outdoors. They must never operate in a garage or other enclosed space. The final location must meet the generator manufacturer's clearance requirements and allow service access. We also consider your yard layout and any private utility lines, septic, or irrigation before work disturbs the property. An 811 locate does not identify every private line.
Permit and inspection requirements depend on the property address and the authority having jurisdiction. A Fountain Inn address may be inside Fountain Inn city limits, on the Greenville County side, or on the Laurens County side. We verify the proper route and coordinate required electrical permitting before work begins.
After installation and required inspections, we test the system through its normal operating sequence. We confirm the automatic exercise setting and show you the basic controls. Routine maintenance follows manufacturer guidance, operating hours, and local conditions.
Dave's provides service and repair support for standby systems we install. We can inspect a fault, identify likely causes, and recommend appropriate repair or maintenance. Parts availability, unit condition, and manufacturer requirements can affect the scope and timing of the work.
