Our Atlanta Generator Services
Whole-home generators provide power to everything in your home, even when your utility company’s electricity
is out of commission.
They provide many benefits, including:
- Seamless, automatic transition from grid power to backup power.
- No need to manually refuel.
- Enough power to run your home as normal (as opposed to a portable generator, which can only run the
essentials for a limited amount of time). - Efficient power production.
- Uninterrupted safety from any electrical security measures.
- Reduces the chances of a break-in. Homes with their lights on and obvious signs of power are less likely to be targeted for a break-in than dark homes without power.
- Saving money by preventing refrigerator/freezer food loss.
- The ability to run AC or heat during dangerously high or low temperatures.
- Increased comfort during and after storms.
Generator Installation in Atlanta
Automatic backup generators make Atlanta storms much less of a bother. When we install a home generator,
we hook up a standby power source to a propane or natural gas line. That means no going out to refill the
generator’s gas tank.
Our licensed electricians will install a brand-new generator for your home, including all the necessary hookups.
We can also replace an old generator that’s seen one too many storms to keep working at its best.
Generator Repair in Atlanta
Even a generator isn’t infallible! Make sure you’re ready for the next outage with generator repair services. Our
technicians will check every piece of your generator to diagnose the malfunction and get things back into peak
working order. That’s why Mister Sparky is one of the best generator service companies in Atlanta.
Not sure whether your backup generator is worth repairing one more time? We’ll provide you a full,
no-hidden-fee quote up front so you can decide. We can also provide our expert opinion on whether a repair or
a replacement is more worth your while.
Transfer Switch Installation
The transfer switch is what allows your power production to switch automatically from the grid to your standby
power (and back). It’s also a safety measure, ensuring that your system isn’t trying to draw power from both
sources at once. We can test your switch and install a new one if your old one isn’t working properly.
Let Us Help You Prepare for the Next Storm
Just because there’s severe weather coming doesn’t mean you have to prepare to sit in the dark. Relax in
comfort, even after the worst storms, with a little help from Mister Sparky Electric of Atlanta. We make sure you
have access to everything from the refrigerator to your AC to hot water for your showers. Don’t wait for the next
disaster; get ready now!

Atlanta Backup Power FAQs
What size generator do I need?
Generators are typically measured in electrical capacity rather than physical size. Whole-home generators have
enough wattage to run everything in your home, so you can live without interruption during an outage. Most
homes run smoothly off a 5,000-8,000-watt generator. Consult with Misters Sparky of Atlanta to make sure your
new generator meets your home’s electricity needs.
Does Atlanta get severe weather?
Yes, Atlanta gets a wide range of severe weather. Your power could be taken out by thunderstorms, hail,
gale-force windstorms, tornadoes, flooding, the outer reaches of a tropical storm or hurricane, and even the occasional winter snow or ice storm. Disasters can strike throughout the year, making a whole-home generator
a worthwhile investment.
How much does a whole-house generator cost in Georgia?
The cost of generator installation services in Atlanta, GA, will vary based on the power load your generator
needs to be able to support. These comprehensive systems usually run you a few thousand dollars for the
generator and installation labor. Portable generators are much less expensive, usually only costing a few
hundred dollars. However, they tend to be noisier, less powerful, less efficient, and require periodic refueling. If
used or situated incorrectly, they can also be a dangerous carbon monoxide hazard to you and your family.
