Home Generator Installation

A power outage in an Ontario winter storm is not just an inconvenience — it can mean a frozen furnace, a flooded basement sump pump, and spoiled food within hours. The Gravity Group installs standby home generators and GenerLink transfer systems that switch your home to backup power automatically, often before you even notice the outage.

We work with trusted brands sized to cover your essential circuits — furnace, sump pump, refrigerator, and lighting — or your entire home, depending on your budget and needs. Every installation includes the electrical and gas work required to run safely and legally.

Standby generators pair naturally with a furnace or heat pump upgrade, ensuring your heating system keeps running even when the grid does not — a real concern for rural properties around Kawartha Lakes and Peterborough that see longer restoration times after major storms.

Not sure whether you need a permanent Generac-style standby system or a GenerLink portable hookup? Start with our homeowner guide: Generac vs GenerLink.

Properties around Kawartha Lakes, Lindsay, and Peterborough often see longer power restoration times after ice storms and major weather events than more urban areas. A standby generator removes the guesswork — it starts automatically, often within seconds of an outage.

For homes with a furnace, well pump, or sump pump, backup power is not a luxury — it is protection against frozen pipes and basement flooding.

Generators are sized to cover either your essential circuits or your entire electrical panel. We review your home’s load, available fuel source (natural gas or propane), and budget before recommending equipment.

Large loads like central air, heat pumps and well pumps need careful starting-watt calculations — especially if you are considering GenerLink, which is capacity-limited compared with a properly sized standby unit.
