“Added a sub panel to the detached garage for my workshop. Welder, compressor and lights all run without issue now.”
“LED retrofit in our warehouse cut the lighting bill nearly in half. The crew worked around our shifts without a single disruption.”

Yes. Generac is the most popular brand we install in Chimney Rock, NC, and we also install Kohler, Cummins and Briggs & Stratton systems.
Most standby generator electrical installations in Chimney Rock are completed in one to two days once the pad and fuel line are in place.
A portable generator with a properly installed transfer switch and inlet is a safe, lower-cost option. Never backfeed a generator through a dryer outlet — it is dangerous to you and to utility workers.
It depends on what you want to run. A 14–22 kW air-cooled unit covers most Chimney Rock homes; larger homes or those running multiple HVAC systems may need a liquid-cooled unit. We perform a load calculation before recommending a size.
