A word of advice before you signs any contract.

There are many companies in the Chicago area that install home standby generators. Some are good at what they do. Most have been installing generators for 5 to 10 years; while that might sound like a long time, in the generator business, it means they've still got a lot to learn. There’s one company in the Northshore that even uses lawn sprinkler installers for their generator installations, their customers call us to clean up after their bad installations all the time. Some companies will not even call you back within a reasonable time. Most will advertise or offer only one brand because they are dependent on that particular manufacturer’s co-op advertising money and incentives. Many of them will just tell you that all brands of generators are the same. Don’t believe it for a second — if that were true, they would all have the same price and warranty! You can get all the references in the world for these companies, and the lowest price to go along with it, but you still won't be able to know if they’re the right company for you. Northshore Power Electric has always offered our customers a wide variety of prices, the best quality, and incredible performance. We believe that customers deserve better than what they’re getting from our competition. Always ask questions before you decide, and remember that in the end, you get what you pay for.
