“Brett, Jeff and the team installed a new whole home generator. They took the time to come out and assess our needs and offer different options allowing us to make informed decisions. We really appreciated that they didn't constantly try to up-sale on things we didn't need like one of the large installers did.”

The Houston Guide to Kohler Generators & Backup Power
Finding the Right Size for Your Houston Home
Sizing isn't just about square footage—it's about the "Peak Load." We evaluate your high-draw appliances like central AC units, pumps, and refrigerators to make sure your Kohler generator's kW rating provides a safe power margin. Most suburban Houston homes find the sweet spot between 22kW and 26kW for whole-house standby comfort.
Reliable Fuel Sources: Natural Gas vs. Propane
Houston's infrastructure makes natural gas a top choice for infinite fuel during long-term grid failures. Liquid propane offers high energy density for rural properties or those requiring a dedicated tank. We coordinate with local utility providers to confirm your line pressure supports your new Kohler system.
Safe Power Restoration: The Role of the Transfer Switch
The transfer switch is the most critical safety component of your Kohler backup system. An Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) detects the power loss, isolates your home from the utility grid, and starts your generator in seconds — preventing dangerous "backfeeding," which protects utility workers and prevents electrical fires in your home.
Commercial & Industrial Backup Power Systems
For Houston business owners and facility managers, downtime equals revenue loss. We provide high-capacity, heavy-duty Kohler backup power — sized for three-phase power and heavy industrial loads — for:
- Warehouses & Logistics
- Medical & Server Rooms
- Office Complexes
- Retail & Fuel Stations
Kohler Generator & Backup Power FAQ
Why choose Kohler over Generac or Gillette?
All three are certified brands we install. Kohler's home standby line is built on the same engineering platform as its commercial generators, which appeals to homeowners who want commercial-grade durability. Generac tends to have wider parts availability, and Gillette is often the right fit for heavier commercial/industrial jobs. We'll give you a straight comparison for your specific home during your load analysis instead of pushing one brand.
Will a Kohler backup power system run my central AC?
Absolutely. When sized correctly, our Kohler standby systems power high-tonnage AC units effortlessly. We often recommend "Soft Start" kits to reduce initial load strain.
How fast does back-up power kick in?
With an Automatic Transfer Switch, your Kohler system's power is typically restored within 10 to 30 seconds of the utility grid failing.
Do you offer Kohler backup power for commercial facilities?
Yes. We install high-kW Kohler commercial generators specifically designed for three-phase power and heavy industrial loads.
Do I need a permit for a Kohler generator installation in Houston?
Yes. We handle permitting and coordination with the City of Houston and Harris County as part of every installation, along with final testing so the system is code-compliant before we leave.
