Standby generators for Bossier City storm season

Between hurricane remnants, summer thunderstorms, and the occasional ice event, multi-day outages are a normal part of Bossier City life. A properly sized standby generator starts within seconds of losing utility power, runs your AC, fridge, well pump, and lights without you doing anything, and shuts itself off when SWEPCO is back. We size based on your actual load — not a guess — and install the transfer switch so there's zero chance of back-feeding the grid.

We handle Generac, Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, and Champion. The job covers the concrete or composite pad, the electrical conduit and transfer switch, coordinating the natural gas or propane line with your plumber, the City of Bossier City permit, the inspection, the initial start-up and load bank, and walking you through the maintenance schedule. We also install portable-generator inlet boxes if a smaller solution fits your needs and budget.

Bossier City Generator FAQ

What size generator does my Bossier City home need?

Most Bossier City homes are well served by an 18kW–26kW air-cooled standby generator. We do an in-home load assessment based on your AC tonnage, well pump, electric range/dryer, and which circuits you want covered, then size from there.

Do you install Generac generators in Bossier City?

Yes — Generac, Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, and Champion are our most common installs in Bossier City. We handle the gas connection coordination, transfer switch, pad, and permits with the City of Bossier City.

How long does generator installation take?

Most residential standby installs in Bossier City take 1–2 days of electrical work plus separate scheduling for the gas line and inspector. Start-to-running power is typically 2–4 weeks depending on permit timing.
