When the lights go out in Elm Grove, Waukesha County residents know the disruption can last far longer than a few hours. Elm Grove's mature oak and elm canopy is beautiful but notorious for toppling onto power lines during severe weather. Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric has been protecting southeastern Wisconsin homes for more than 60 years, and our licensed electricians install whole-home standby generators that keep your family safe and comfortable no matter what the weather brings.

## Why Elm Grove Homeowners Choose Standby Generators

Elm Grove's affluent households often run home offices and security systems that can't afford downtime. A permanently installed standby generator solves all of that. Unlike a portable unit that requires manual setup, a whole-home standby generator monitors utility power 24/7 and automatically starts within seconds of an outage—even when you're asleep or away from home.

## Generac Generators: Built Just Down the Road

Burkhardt proudly installs Generac standby generators, and Elm Grove homeowners have a distinct advantage: Generac's global headquarters is located right here in Waukesha, WI. That means factory-trained technicians, fast parts availability, and a manufacturer that understands Wisconsin winters firsthand. Generac's Air-Cooled and Liquid-Cooled series cover homes of every size, from a 10 kW unit that protects essential circuits to a 22+ kW whole-home system that runs everything without interruption.

## What the Installation Process Looks Like

How long does a generator installation take in Elm Grove?

Most whole-home standby generator installations in Elm Grove are completed in a single day. Burkhardt handles all permits, the transfer switch, and fuel line connections so you have a fully operational system before our crew leaves.

Do I need to be home during a power outage to start the generator?

No. A standby generator monitors utility power automatically and starts within seconds of detecting an outage—day or night, whether you're home or away. It also shuts off automatically when utility power returns.
