Standby Generator Installation in East Texas

Power outages can strike without warning — leaving you in the dark, interrupting daily life, and even putting your safety at risk. In East Texas, where unpredictable weather, utility grid failures, and storm activity are common, backup power isn’t a luxury it’s a necessity. That’s why homeowners rely on The Original Evans Air Conditioning, Plumbing and Electrical for dependable, professional standby generator installation. When the lights go out, your standby generator powers up automatically. We make sure it happens seamlessly.

What Is a Standby Generator?

A standby generator is a permanently installed backup power system that automatically supplies electricity to your home when the grid goes down. It’s hardwired into your electrical panel and powered by natural gas or propane, so there’s no need to refuel or manually start it like with portable generators.

Unlike temporary solutions, a standby generator can power your entire home — from the HVAC and refrigerator to lighting, electronics, and medical devices — keeping you safe and comfortable no matter how long the outage lasts.

Why You Need a Standby Generator in East Texas

Here in East Texas, we deal with extreme weather, powerful storms, and power grid instability year-round. That means sudden outages can happen anytime, and they often last longer than expected. When that happens, a standby generator gives you:

Uninterrupted comfort during blackouts
Protection from food spoilage and appliance failure
Continued use of medical or life-sustaining devices
Power to run sump pumps, HVAC systems, and more
Security system uptime and home monitoring continuity

Without backup power, you’re left vulnerable to heat, cold, spoiled food, frozen pipes, and more. A standby generator protects your home and your lifestyle — automatically.

How a Standby Generator Actually Works

Your home’s electrical system is designed for stable grid power — but when that grid fails, your generator takes over. Here’s how it works:

Power outage is detected.
The automatic transfer switch monitors utility power at all times.
Generator activates automatically.
Within seconds, the standby generator turns on and begins producing electricity.
Your home is restored to full power.
The transfer switch shifts from utility to generator power, and everything runs as normal.
Utility power returns — and your system resets.
Once the grid is back online, the generator shuts down and the system seamlessly switches back.

No manual steps. No extension cords. No downtime. It’s a complete hands-free solution for total peace of mind.
