Automatic Generator Installation for Dependable Backup Power

A prolonged power outage can leave your home without critical service, such as heating or cooling, refrigeration, lighting, and medical equipment. A permanently installed standby generator provides a dependable alternative to portable equipment, automatically restoring power to selected circuits or, when properly sized, much of the entire home.

Restivo’s Heating, Air & Electric provides generator installation throughout Rhode Island and Bristol County, MA. With more than 80 years of local experience, over 1,000 customer reviews, and expertise in both generators and residential electrical systems, our family-owned company can properly integrate your new equipment with your home’s existing infrastructure. We install high-quality KOHLER® and Generac systems selected around your property and backup-power priorities.

Top-of-the-Line Standby Generators

KOHLER® Generators

KOHLER® home generators are built to take over automatically when the power goes out, so you are not left searching for fuel, running extension cords, or moving a portable generator into place. These natural gas or propane systems can begin restoring power in about 10 seconds and are available with durable aluminum enclosures, remote monitoring, and industry-leading warranty coverage.

A Home Generator Selected Around What Matters Most

The right home generator is not simply the model with the highest output. Your system should be selected according to the circuits and equipment you need during an outage, such as a boiler, furnace, central air conditioner, refrigerator, well pump, sump pump, water heater, lighting, or medical equipment. Restivo’s evaluates these priorities along with the home’s electrical capacity and available fuel source.

Our electrical expertise allows us to address the complete generator installation, including the transfer switch, electrical connections, and related infrastructure. Whether you need essential-circuit protection or broader whole-home coverage, we help determine an appropriate standby generator configuration rather than recommending unnecessary capacity. You’ll receive system designed to respond automatically and keep the parts of your home that matter most operating when utility power is unavailable.
