Never Lose Power Again
A whole-home standby generator keeps your lights on, your furnace running, and your sump pump working automatically the moment the grid goes down. No extension cords, no hauling a portable unit out of the garage at 2 a.m. in a snowstorm. Just seamless, automatic backup power.
Prairie Power Solutions handles every step of your generator installation from start to finish, so you don’t have to coordinate between contractors. One call, one team, one company that does it all.
How Our Installation Process Works
1. Free Virtual Generator Assessment
We start by understanding your home and your power needs. Most assessments are done virtually. Just share a few photos of your electrical panel, fuel source, and home layout, and we’ll evaluate everything remotely. If your project needs an on-site visit, we’ll schedule one. Either way, we’ll size the right Generac generator for your home. No guesswork, no overselling.
2. Custom Proposal
You’ll receive a clear, all-in proposal covering your generator, automatic transfer switch, installation, permitting, and fuel line coordination. No surprise costs, no hidden fees. We’ll walk you through your options so you can make a confident decision.
3. Professional Installation
Our licensed electricians handle the full installation: electrical connections, transfer switch, generator placement, and coordination with your propane provider. Every install meets local code requirements and Generac’s specifications. We don’t cut corners.
4. Commissioning & Walkthrough
Once your generator is installed, we power it up, run a full load test, and walk you through exactly how your system works. You’ll know what to expect when the power goes out and how to check on your generator between service visits.
5. Enroll in a Service Plan
Your generator is an investment, and routine maintenance is what keeps it ready to perform. Before we wrap up, we can get you set up on one of our service plans so your generator gets professional attention on a regular schedule. We handle the scheduling, the reminders, and the service. You just enjoy the peace of mind. Service plans are recommended but not required.

Thinking About Upgrading Your Generator?
If your current generator is aging, undersized, or unreliable, it might be time for an upgrade rather than another repair. Generator technology has improved significantly in the last decade. Today’s Generac units are quieter, more fuel-efficient, and more powerful than models from even five or ten years ago.
Common reasons homeowners upgrade:
- Your generator is 10+ years old and repair costs are adding up.
- You’ve added square footage, a shop, or new appliances and your current unit can’t keep up.
- Your generator struggles in extreme cold or has failed to start during recent outages.
- You want whole-home coverage but your current unit only covers essential circuits.
We’ll assess your existing setup, let you know honestly whether a repair or an upgrade makes more sense, and handle the full replacement if it’s time. We remove your old unit and install the new one. Same turnkey process, same team. If you need service on your current unit first, learn more about our generator repair service.
