Frequently Asked Questions
What size generator do I need?
It depends on your home's electrical load. We perform a load calculation during the free estimate to size it correctly.
How long can a generator run?
Standby generators connected to natural gas can run indefinitely. Propane units run as long as the fuel lasts.
Do generators need maintenance?
Yes, annual maintenance keeps your generator ready. Bolt Electric offers maintenance plans.
Plan the generator around the loads that matter
Correct generator sizing starts with what the property must operate during an outage—not a one-size-fits-all equipment recommendation.
