Three brands, one scope of work

Genstar is a factory-authorized dealer for Kohler, Generac and Briggs & Stratton, with factory-trained and certified technicians on all three lines. Systems are configured for natural gas or liquid propane, residential or commercial. A finished installation is more than the generator itself: an automatic transfer switch that shifts the property from grid supply to generator, a management module that prioritizes essential circuits and controls large loads such as HVAC equipment, a surge protector guarding the transfer switch and the house, and Mobile Link remote monitoring so the owner can check status from a phone or PC while Genstar, as the local authorized dealer, sees generator health and receives immediate alerts on error codes. Transfer to backup power happens automatically, roughly 10 to 30 seconds after an outage is detected.

The company runs the project end to end, including permits, electrical work, plumbing, installation and final startup, and keeps customers updated as those stages complete. Quotes are free. Standing offers listed on the site include $500 off installation service, a free cellular monitoring kit, and 0% financing for 60 months subject to credit approval.

Where they work

Repair coverage extends to a 50-mile radius of Sanford and Orlando. Named service cities include Sanford, Orlando, Altamonte Springs, Lake Mary, Longwood, Winter Park, Winter Springs, Oviedo, Maitland, Windermere, Kissimmee, Celebration, Clermont, Mount Dora, Deland, Deltona, Ocala, The Villages, Palm Coast, New Smyrna Beach and Merritt Island, reaching from Seminole County out to the coast and up into Volusia, Lake and Marion.

Runtime and running cost

Two questions come up constantly and Genstar answers both. Endurance depends on fuel: a natural gas unit can run continuously for up to about three weeks, while gasoline or propane units should be limited to roughly 24 to 72 hours. The practical constraint is oil changes, needed about every 100 hours of run time and as often as every 50 hours on air-cooled units. On cost, a 20 kW generator carrying a whole home runs about $50 to $150 per day depending on load and fuel prices. Whether a unit is covered by homeowners insurance depends on the policy and how the system was installed, so Genstar sends owners back to their insurer for a definite answer.

Certified technicians are available 24/7 for emergency diagnosis and repair.
