Hawaii Island spreads power across long rural feeders, vog-exposed coastline and homes above 2,000 feet that were often owner-built. Corroded lugs and undersized services are the two things we find most.

What Mountain View customers say

★★★★★

Landscape lighting along the driveway. They buried everything properly instead of stapling it to a fence.

★★★★★

Had three other companies look at a flickering light problem. These guys found an open neutral in a junction box behind a closet in about twenty minutes.

Generator Installation in Mountain View: frequently asked questions

What size generator do I need in Mountain View?
It depends what you want running. A critical loads setup covering fridge, lights, fans and a well pump is far cheaper than whole home coverage. We size it from a load calculation.
Do I need a transfer switch in Mountain View?
Yes. Running a generator through an extension cord or a backfed dryer outlet can energise the utility line and is genuinely dangerous. A transfer switch isolates you properly.
Automatic or manual transfer in Mountain View?
Automatic starts and switches on its own within seconds, which matters if you are away or have medical equipment. Manual costs less and is fine if someone is usually home.
How long does generator installation take in Mountain View?
A manual interlock or inlet box is often a single day. A standby unit with an automatic transfer switch typically takes one to two days plus inspection.
Can you service a generator already installed in Mountain View?
Yes, including transfer switch testing, load testing and fixing installs that were not done correctly the first time.
Where does the generator go on a Mountain View property?
On a level pad, clear of windows and vents, with the manufacturer's clearances respected. We will walk the property and show you the options.
What areas around Mountain View do you serve?
We cover Mountain View and the wider Hawaii Island area, plus the rest of Hawaii. If you are just outside Mountain View, call (888) 633-7804 and we will confirm coverage in one minute.
My breaker keeps tripping in Mountain View. Is that an emergency?
A breaker that trips occasionally under heavy load is a capacity problem. A breaker that trips immediately every time you reset it is a fault, and that one needs attention now. If there is heat, buzzing or a burning smell, call (888) 633-7804 straight away.
