Never Lose Power Again.
Pacific Northwest storms can knock out power for hours — or days. Whidbey Island is especially vulnerable — when the power goes out, you're on an island with limited infrastructure to restore it quickly. A whole-home standby generator kicks on automatically within seconds of an outage, keeping your lights, heat, refrigerator, and medical equipment running without you lifting a finger.
Secure Power handles the full installation: generator placement, transfer switch wiring, fuel line coordination, and electrical panel connection. We also maintain and repair existing systems so your backup power is always ready.

Oak Harbor Generator FAQ
Generator units range from $2,500–$4,000 for 7.5–10 kW models, $4,500–$6,000 for 14–18 kW, and $5,000–$8,000+ for 22–26 kW whole-home units. Installation costs vary based on distance from the panel and fuel source.
7.5–10 kW covers essentials (lights, fridge, furnace). 14–18 kW handles most of the home including HVAC. 22–26 kW powers everything with no compromises. We perform a load calculation during the site evaluation to recommend the right size.
At least once a year — ideally at the beginning of fall before winter storm season. Oil, air filter, and spark plugs should be replaced. Cold weather affects engine startup, oil viscosity, and fuel quality.
Near your electrical panel and fuel source for the most efficient connection. Noise and weekly self-test cycles should also be considered. We help choose the most practical location that balances accessibility, noise, and code requirements.
