  • Why get a home stand-by generator?

    Home generators are one of the ultimate luxuries, especially if you live in a region that suffers frequent storms or power outages. With a home generator, you can keep the lights — and the A/C — on during an outage, providing your family with much-needed comfort.

    Why buy a generator from HBI?

    We are a certified dealer for only the very best home generator brand, supplying the Power Protect models from Briggs u0026 Stratton. HBI does not simply drop off a generator at the end of your driveway and wish you luck. We help with every step of the process: from determining your needs based on your electrical components, to placing the generator on a locally made pre-cast concrete pad we supply, organizing and then supporting the qualified electrician and gas fitters. Our service department is available 24/7 if you need anything. Customer aftercare isn’t an afterthought — it sits at the core of how we do business.

    The home generator buy process

    Step 1

    To know what size of Generator you will need, you first need to determine your large electrical needs, ignoring smaller items like coffee pots, televisions, etc. This list should include critical items, such as air conditioners, hot water heaters, furnaces, hot tubs, pools, car chargers or wired shops. 80% of homes up to 3,000sq ft need only the 13kW models.

    Step 2

    Once we have determined your electrical needs, we can help you choose a location to put the home generator. Popular locations are in the garden, along the side or rear of the home. There are certain requirements in terms of spacing from gas or electrical meters, distance from the building and distance from windows.

    Step 3

    Now that we have chosen the right generator and transfer switch, and know where we going to place these items, we can price the equipment and provide an estimate to you.

    Step 4

    We can now begin the installation process. A pre-cast concrete pad, that we supply, will be laid down. The generator and transfer switch will be delivered and placed We work with local electricians and gas fitters to get the rest of the installation completed to meet code!
