## Frequently Asked Questions

How much does whole-home generator installation cost in Western Washington?
Whole-home standby generator installation in the Tacoma/Puget Sound area typically ranges from $8,000 to $20,000+, depending on generator size (kW), fuel type (natural gas or propane), transfer switch type, and site conditions. 3 Bridges Electric provides free quotes.

What size generator do I need for my home?
Most single-family homes in Western Washington are well-served by a 14–22 kW standby generator. Larger homes or those wanting to run HVAC, well pumps, and all appliances simultaneously may need 24–26 kW or larger. A load calculation is performed at every site assessment.

Do you work with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) and Tacoma Power for generator installations?
Yes. 3 Bridges Electric coordinates all utility notifications and interconnection requirements with PSE and Tacoma Power as part of the generator installation process.
