How Standby Generators Add Value to Your Home and Your Life

Investing in a standby generator can do more than just keep your lights on during a power outage; it can also add significant value to your home and improve your overall quality of life. At MALL Energy Home, we’ve seen firsthand how a well-chosen generator can be a game-changer for East Texas residents.

According to a Consumer Reports study, a whole-house generator properly installed by licensed and certified electricians could raise your home's value by 3% to 5%. However, while it's almost universally true that home value increases, the exact amount can vary widely. Based on various data and reports, the added value can range from 50% to 150% of the generator’s cost.

Keep in mind that if your primary goal is to increase your home’s value, a $10,000 generator installation might not necessarily add $10,000 to your home's market value. Factors such as the generator's condition, age, and regional demand play crucial roles in determining the value added.

While the financial benefits are appealing, the true value of a standby generator lies in the peace of mind it provides. Here are some reasons why a standby generator is a valuable addition to your home:
