Generator Installation

Generator Installation

Hurricane season is not the time to test your backup plan.

Southwest Florida averages multiple multi-day grid outages every storm season — and the gap between a portable generator and a properly installed whole-home standby system is night and day. Synergy designs, installs and services Generac, Kohler and Briggs & Stratton standby generators, sized for your house and wired through an automatic transfer switch that takes over within seconds of an outage.

Every install is permitted, gas-line coordinated, AHJ-inspected, and enrolled in a maintenance program that keeps the unit ready for the day you actually need it.

What's included

Three disciplines under one trusted roof.

Automatic Transfer Switch

Senses an outage and transfers your house to generator power within seconds — no plugs, no extension cords, no waking up at 3am to a dark house.

Sized to Your Home

Real load calculations — not 'one size fits all.' Air conditioning, well pump, EV, refrigeration, and the rest of the house running together without overloading.

Permitted Gas & Electrical

Permitted electrical install, coordinated gas line (LP or natural gas), and AHJ inspection on file — exactly what your insurance carrier wants.

Site work matters as much as the gear.
The Right Pad

Site work matters as much as the gear.

Generator pads need to be elevated above flood plane, set back from the house per code, accessible for service and screened against salt spray. We do the site prep, the pad, the conduit and the gas — not just the electrical hookup at the end.

A transfer switch your future electrician will thank us for.
Panel Integration

A transfer switch your future electrician will thank us for.

We install service-rated automatic transfer switches that integrate cleanly with your main panel, with labeled circuits and clear documentation. Future panel work — EV chargers, solar, additions — stays simple instead of becoming a tangled mess.

Maintenance Matters

An unmaintained generator is a $12,000 lawn ornament.

Standby generators need annual service — oil, filter, battery, plug, exercise cycle verification — or they fail the moment you actually need them. Every Synergy install comes with a first-year maintenance plan included, and we offer ongoing service contracts beyond.

How we work

A predictable, four-step process.

01
Step 01

Load assessment

We measure your actual peak load and design the generator and transfer switch around it.

02
Step 02

Permits & gas

Electrical permit, gas permit, utility coordination, pad and conduit done up front.

03
Step 03

Install & commission

Generator set, ATS wired in, system commissioned, exercise cycle programmed and inspector signed off.

04
Step 04

Train & enroll

Walk you through the monitoring app and enroll the unit in the first-year maintenance program.
