Keep Your Generator
Ready When It Matters
A generator that never gets serviced is a liability, not an asset. Annual maintenance catches problems before outages do — and keeps your warranty intact. We specialize in nothing but generators, so we service them better than anyone.
Why It Matters
Skip Maintenance, Risk Failure
Your generator sits idle 99% of the time. That idleness is exactly what kills it. Annual service keeps every system primed — so it starts on the first try when DTE cuts out.
Warranty Compliance
Generac, Kohler, and Briggs require documented annual maintenance to honor warranty claims. Skip a year and you could be on the hook for a $4,000 repair.
Reliability When It Counts
Generators that skip annual service fail at 3× the rate of maintained units. Most failures happen in the first 60 seconds of a real outage — exactly when you need it most.
Fuel Efficiency
Dirty air filters, degraded oil, and fouled spark plugs force your generator to work harder and burn more fuel. A tune-up pays for itself in run-time savings over a single storm season.
Battery Health
The #1 cause of generator no-starts is a dead battery. We test and replace batteries proactively — not reactively after your first blackout of winter.
Transfer Switch Integrity
A stuck or corroded transfer switch means your generator runs fine but your home never gets power. We test the full transfer cycle every visit.
Manufacturer Requirements
Generator manufacturers specify annual service intervals for a reason — engine wear, oil degradation, and component fatigue follow predictable schedules. We follow the spec sheet, not guesswork.

What Customers Say
After the Tune-Up
These aren't installation reviews — they're from homeowners who've been on our annual maintenance plan for years.
"Third year on the annual plan. Technician caught a battery showing early failure signs — replaced it on the spot. Two weeks later we had a 6-hour outage. Generator ran perfectly the whole time."
"They found a firmware issue during maintenance that was causing false fault codes. Fixed it in 20 minutes. Without the annual check I would never have known until a real outage triggered the problem."
"My Generac warranty required documented annual service. Powerhouse handles the whole thing and gives me the paperwork I need. Simple, fast, and the generator has never missed a beat."
