A well-maintained whole-home generator can last two to three decades or more. However, longevity depends on equipment quality, fuel type, and usage. Less frequent use can extend the unit’s lifespan. Replacing your existing generator is an opportunity to increase the amount of available power (to run more appliances in an outage), increase your home’s value, and benefit from the latest features, such as automatic detection of outages, remote monitoring, and load management.
Powered by natural gas or propane, a standby generator uses electromagnetic induction to produce electrical power using mechanical energy. It’s able to detect a loss of power automatically. The automatic transfer switch then disconnects your electrical system from utility power and turns on the generator, a process that can take a fraction of a second. When it senses utility power is restored, it safely reconnects to the grid and turns off the generator.
Call Service Champions whenever you think you need a generator repair. If your backup system fails during a power outage, you’ll be in the dark, literally. You didn’t pay thousands of dollars for equipment and installation to be in this situation, but you can count on our expert technicians to fix any issues that arise. Blocked filters, bad spark plugs, failed batteries, or a damaged alternator, fuel pressure regulator, or voltage regulator are just some common problems they address.

A whole-home generator is connected to your electrical panel via the transfer switch. This crucial component must be carefully installed, as it feeds power directly to the main panel and prevents backfeeding of electricity into utility lines. It also includes a main breaker for switching between grid and generator power, and allows you to choose which circuits to power during an outage. Our technicians install manual and automatic switches and the proper wiring and cabling to safely integrate them.
If you’re looking for other ways to modernize your home, we can replace old aluminum wiring or connect a Level 2 electric vehicle charger to your panel.
At Service Champions, we ensure all our work complies with the California Electrical Code and the National Electrical Code. A load calculation is performed before any generator installation. Required to obtain a permit, it factors in the circuits, running watts, starting watts, appliances, and continuous loads while adding a reserve margin for safety. We ensure all residential generators in Martinez meet city, county, state, and national requirements and submit all the required documentation for approval.
Installing even the best whole-home generator isn’t the only way to protect you from power outages. Our electricians also install whole-home surge protection systems, also linked to your breaker panel, to absorb voltage spikes from everything from aging appliances to faulty wiring, to outside factors like damaged power lines and lightning strikes. We can also take steps like updating old wiring and providing regular electrical maintenance.
