Great experience. The technician explained each step of the process and where other companies did not deliver on the quality of their work. He even provided tips for both cold and hot temperatures to maximize efficiency.

Electrical Generator Frequently Asked Questions

What areas does Mechollage service for electrical generators?

We proudly serve homeowners across:

  • Virginia Beach
  • Chesapeake
  • Norfolk
  • Portsmouth
  • Suffolk
    We avoid service in Hampton and Newport News due to travel inefficiencies, ensuring our response times remain fast for core service areas.
Do standby generators start automatically during an outage?

Yes. All our standby systems include an automatic transfer switch (ATS) that instantly detects outages and restores power within 5–10 seconds. You don’t need to be home or take any action — the system runs entirely automatically and will shut off once utility power returns.

Do you provide financing options for generators?

Absolutely. Mechollage offers financing through Lend Home Improvements (Momnt) and other approved lenders.
Qualified homeowners can benefit from:

  • $0 down payment options
  • Low monthly payments
  • 0% interest promotional plans
    All financing is handled securely and compliant with current consumer lending regulations.

What maintenance is required for a generator?
  • Oil and filter changes
  • Battery and voltage checks
  • Firmware and diagnostic updates
  • System test run and safety inspection
    Customers can also join an M Membership Plan, which covers maintenance, priority service, and discounts on future repairs.
  • What do warranties look like for Electrical Generators?

    Every generator installed by Mechollage includes:

    • A 1-year installation craftsmanship guarantee
    • A 1-year maintenance plan included with new installations
    • Optional 10-year extended manufacturer warranty through Generac or Honeywell
      We also register all warranties on your behalf and include documentation in your customer binder.

    How long does installation take?

    Most residential generator installations take 1–2 days once permits and utility coordination are complete.
    The total timeline depends on:

    • Permit processing time (typically 1–2 weeks)
    • Fuel line preparation (if natural gas or propane setup is required)
    • Site preparation and electrical panel integration
      Our team coordinates everything from trenching to final inspection to ensure a smooth installation.

    Do you handle permits and inspections?

    Yes. Mechollage handles all permitting, inspection scheduling, and code compliance required by your city or county. Our installations follow Virginia and NEC (National Electrical Code) standards for safety and reliability. Homeowners are kept informed at every stage of the approval process.

    What fuel types can my generator run on?

    Most standby generators installed by Mechollage operate on natural gas or liquid propane (LP).

    • Natural gas systems connect directly to your home’s gas line for continuous fuel supply.
    • Propane systems are ideal for properties without natural gas access and can use existing tanks.
      Dual-fuel models can switch between both for greater flexibility.

    How does a standby generator work?

    A standby generator continuously monitors your home’s electrical supply. When an outage occurs, it automatically starts within seconds and delivers power through a transfer switch. Once utility power is restored, the system safely switches back and powers down. There’s no manual setup or extension cords required — just seamless, automatic protection.

    What size generator do I need for my home?

    The right generator size depends on your home’s square footage and the appliances you need to power.

    • Smaller homes (1,500–2,500 sq. ft.) typically require a 14–18 kW unit.
    • Medium homes (2,500–4,000 sq. ft.) often need 20–22 kW.
    • Larger homes (4,000–6,000+ sq. ft.) are best served by 24–26 kW systems such as the Generac Guardian 26kW.
      Our technicians perform a full load analysis to ensure the generator is properly sized to your needs and utility configuration.

    What types of generators does Mechollage install?

    We install and service whole-home standby generators, primarily from Generac and Honeywell. These permanently installed systems automatically power your home within seconds of an outage. We also provide support for inverter generators and dual-fuel backup systems upon request. Every installation includes proper sizing, load assessment, permitting, and professional connection to your home’s electrical panel.
