KOHLER Generators: Built to Last
With industrial-grade components and a reputation for reliability and excellence, Kohler generators are built to last. If you're looking at a "big box" home improvement store for an "off the shelf" generator, look around back at what's powering their big orange store sign should the primary grid fail. You guessed it, it's KOHLER!
Our installation of your new whole-house generator will be top quality. From the preparation to installation to follow-up servicing, we will be there to meet your needs. Our installations are extremely clean and straightforward. We will confer with you, if needed, to choose which loads are the priority and which are the luxury ones. From there, we can develop a plan to suit your custom power needs. When we're finished installing the equipment, our Virginia Beach technicians will follow up with a quality control inspection just to be sure you're satisfied with every detail.

The reasons for considering a Kohler whole-house generator go beyond temporary outages and include benefits like:
- Health and safety: Power medical devices without worry, prevent food spoilage, and avoid burst pipes in winter.
- Peace of mind: Relax knowing your security systems and home comforts are always powered.

Essential Home Generator Safety
At Climatemakers of VA, we prioritize safety first, last, and every step along the way. When it comes to installing and operating a whole-house generator, there are some specific precautions you must take to remain safe.
Valuable tips for using a home generator include:
- Proper installation: Always have your generator installed by a professional. Our team of experts ensures that your Kohler generator is installed following all local building codes and manufacturer instructions, significantly reducing the risk of operational hazards.
- Carbon monoxide (CO) safety: Generators produce carbon monoxide, a dangerous, odorless gas. Ensure your generator is installed outside, away from windows, doors, and vents to prevent CO from entering your home. Additionally, install CO detectors on every level of your home to monitor for the presence of this gas.
- Electrical safety: To prevent electrical shock, never operate a generator in wet conditions. Use heavy-duty extension cords rated for outdoor use to connect appliances to the generator, and ensure your generator is properly grounded.
- Maintenance and operation: Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for routine maintenance and have your generator inspected annually by a qualified technician. Always turn off the generator and allow it to cool down before refilling it with fuel.
- Fuel storage: Store fuel for your generator in approved safety cans and in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep fuel away from living spaces and fuel-burning appliances to minimize the risk of fire.
- Emergency preparedness: Familiarize yourself and your family with the operation of your generator and develop an emergency plan for its use during an outage. This includes knowing how to shut off the generator quickly and safely in case of an emergency.
- Noise consideration: Be mindful of the impact of noise on your family and neighbors. Our Kohler generators are designed for quiet operation, but it's crucial to position your generator where it will cause minimal disturbance.
By adhering to these safety guidelines, you can enjoy the benefits of a reliable power source without compromising the safety and comfort of your home. We take care to see that every aspect of your home generator experience, from installation to operation, is handled with the utmost care and professionalism.
What Size Generator Do I Need to Power My Home?
Picking the right generator means you'll stay powered up during outages but won't waste money on a bigger one than you need.
Here's how to figure out what size generator you will need to cover your power demands:
- Start with the essentials: Refrigerator, freezer, lights, basic heating/cooling, medical equipment. A 5,000 to 7,500-watt generator often handles these.
- Want more comfort? If you'd like to keep your AC, pool, and other appliances going, think about a 10,000-watt generator or larger.
- Get a personalized plan: What is the best way to know for sure? A home energy audit! Climatemakers of VA offers these free to make sure your generator is a perfect fit. We'll recommend a Kohler generator that's reliable, quiet, and won't waste fuel.
