Generac Protector 60kW liquid-cooled standby generator on a concrete pad in a wooded New Hampshire setting

Generator installation in Alton, NH.

Standby generators and portable inlets for Alton Bay camps and year-round houses off Route 28.

What's Included

Alton Bay generator installation, from panel to pad

We size a standby generator for an Alton Bay camp at the panel, for the heat and the well pump. It starts when utility power drops. Startup and warranty registration are included on Generac and KOHLER units we install.

Older cottages on the bay often need a panel change before an automatic transfer switch will fit. The panel upgrade or a 200-amp service goes in the written estimate with the generator.

Year-round houses off Route 28 get the same panel check. Electrical work in Alton covers the rest of the house.

Questions

Questions about generator installation on Alton Bay

How do you size a standby generator for an Alton Bay camp?

At the panel. We count the heat and the well pump, then size the unit to that load. It starts when utility power drops. We are a certified installer for Generac air-cooled and liquid-cooled systems and KOHLER air-cooled systems, and startup and warranty registration are included on units we install.

Does an older cottage on Alton Bay need a new panel first?

Often, yes. An automatic transfer switch needs space and capacity the original cottage panel may not have. We check that on site. If the cottage needs a panel change or a 200-amp service upgrade, both are in the written estimate with the generator.

How do you size a generator for a year-round house off Route 28?

At the panel, the same way as an Alton Bay camp. We count the loads that have to run in an outage, including the heat and the well pump.

Is a portable inlet enough for a house off Route 28?

For many year-round houses inland of Alton Bay, yes. We mount a weatherproof inlet and an interlock kit or a manual transfer switch so generator power and utility power cannot meet. A whole-home standby is the choice when the house should switch over on its own.
