Whole-House Generator Cost Calculator
A Florida-curated fair-price range for a whole-house standby generator — full installation vs. a repair/service call, side by side, plus the true 10-year cost of ownership. Full value shown here — no lead wall.
Your job
What a real bid should include
• A load/sizing calculation (kW), not a one-size unit sold to everyone
• Fuel type confirmed in writing (natural gas vs. LP) and who runs the gas line
• A pulled permit in the pro's name — this is licensed electrical + gas work
• The automatic transfer switch brand/model named, not left as "included"
• A concrete pad included, not assumed
• A monthly self-test/exercise cycle explained (so it actually starts when you need it)
• Written warranty terms (unit AND install labor) before you sign
Is your written quote fair?
Get matched with one verified pro
Your request goes to a single vetted local pro — you stay anonymous until you tap connect, and we never sell your info.
This is a planning tool, not a professional inspection, contractor bid, insurance quote, or flood determination for your specific home. Roof figures are ZIP-level samples (published only when the sample is large enough to protect privacy). Flood ratings come from FEMA’s National Risk Index (county model). Storm figures count official NOAA severe-weather reports, not predictions that your property will be hit. Cost ranges are curated Florida installed-cost estimates for a typical home — not a quote. Always verify with a licensed pro and your insurer. Fair Price ranges are curated 2026 Florida estimates (materials + labor for a typical single-family job). They are not a bid, not a guarantee, and not a condition of getting matched to a pro.
