Preparing for Peace of Mind with Pro-Site Services

Standby Generator Installation in North Bend, WA

Thinking about installing a standby generator for your home or business? Smart move.
A reliable backup power system means real peace of mind—no more worrying about outages, spoiled food, frozen pipes, or costly downtime.

At Pro-Site Services, we make the entire process smooth, code-compliant, and tailored to your property. Whether you’re protecting your home in North Bend or keeping your business running in Snoqualmie, Fall City, or Issaquah, our team handles everything—from permits to testing—so you don’t have to.


Step 1: On-Site Evaluation & Load Assessment

Every installation begins with a detailed site visit where we:

  • Review your property layout and electrical system
  • Evaluate your service panel and capacity
  • Identify which systems/appliances need backup power
  • Perform a full load calculation to size your generator correctly

Sizing matters — this ensures your system delivers exactly the power you need, whether you're covering essentials or going full whole-home backup.


Step 2: Selecting Your Generator & Fuel Source

After the evaluation, we help you choose the best generator and fuel setup for your property. We work with trusted brands like Generac and Kohler known for reliability and longevity.

Common fuel options include:

  • Natural Gas — convenient and low-maintenance for most homes
  • Propane — ideal for rural or off-grid locations
  • Diesel — best suited for high-demand commercial systems

We break down the pros and cons of each to ensure you get the most dependable and cost-effective solution for your location.


Step 3: Permitting, Planning & Utility Coordination

We handle all the behind-the-scenes work, including:

  • Pulling local permits
  • Ensuring full code compliance
  • Coordinating with gas companies and utilities
  • Mapping proper clearances, exhaust routing, and fuel line paths

Everything is done safely, efficiently, and in accordance with Washington State and local regulations.


Step 4: Installation Day

Here’s what installation day typically looks like:

  • Pad Preparation — We set a level, secure base
  • Generator Placement — Positioned per safety and zoning codes
  • Electrical & Fuel Hookups — Safe, clean integration with your service panel and fuel source
  • Transfer Switch Setup — Enables automatic switching during outages
  • Initial Startup & System Check — Ensures smooth performance

Most residential installs take 1–2 days, while larger commercial systems may require additional time.


Step 5: System Testing & Homeowner Training

Once installed, we run a full load test to ensure your generator is ready for real-world use. Then we show you:

  • How your generator automatically activates during an outage
  • How to navigate your control panel
  • Routine maintenance basics
  • Warranty details
  • 24/7 support options

You’ll know exactly how everything works—and who to call if you ever need help.


Step 6: Maintenance & Long-Term Support

Pro-Site Services offers ongoing maintenance plans, including:

  • Oil and filter changes
  • Battery and electrical system checks
  • Software/firmware updates
  • Load testing (for commercial systems)

Regular maintenance ensures your standby generator is always ready when the next storm hits.
