A home-system approach
Use less. Make power. Stay ready.
We connect the pieces instead of treating every upgrade as a separate problem.
Generate
Solar designed around the bill
Start with 12 months of usage, roof and shade conditions, then size a system around the home—not a generic panel count.
Protect
Battery backup for outages
Prioritize critical loads such as refrigeration, lighting, communications and select heating or cooling equipment.
Control
High-efficiency HVAC
Right-sized heat pumps, air conditioning, furnaces and indoor-air-quality equipment can reduce waste while improving comfort.
New — backup power
Generators for every home and every outage.
We have all types of generators — fully automatic whole-home standby systems, portable and inverter units, dual-fuel and diesel models, and solar power stations. Tell us what has to stay on, and we will size the right one.
Automatic
Whole-home standby
Permanently installed, fueled by natural gas or propane, and on within seconds of an outage — no cords, no refueling, no being home.
Flexible
Portable & inverter
Gasoline or dual-fuel power for the essentials, plus quiet inverter models with clean power that is safe for electronics.
Silent
Solar power stations
Battery-based backup that runs indoors with zero fumes and recharges from the sun — perfect with rooftop solar.

Night
The home imports grid electricity and applies eligible banked kilowatt-hour credits.

High-efficiency heating and cooling in one system. Cold-climate models, electrical capacity and backup heat require careful planning.
Furnaces & AC
Gas furnaces and central air remain practical in many homes. Efficiency rating, venting and duct condition all affect performance.

Solar + HVAC
Plan electrification before final solar sizing.
A future heat pump, electric water heater or EV can raise annual electricity use. Add likely loads before locking a solar design so the power plan matches the home you are building toward.
Backup power, done right
Every type of generator. One power plan.
When the grid goes down, your home does not have to. Jackson Energy helps homeowners choose, size and install the right generator — from a portable unit for the essentials to a fully automatic whole-home standby system — across Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Oregon.
All typesStandby, portable, inverter, dual-fuel, tri-fuel, diesel and solar power stations
Automatic standbyStarts within seconds of an outage through an automatic transfer switch
Sized to your homeLoad calculation first, so you buy the right size — not the biggest one
Generator types
We have all types of generators.
Different homes, budgets and outage risks call for different machines. Here is the full lineup we help homeowners compare and install.
Most popular
Whole-home standby generators
Permanently installed outside, much like a central AC unit, and fueled by natural gas or propane. An automatic transfer switch senses an outage and starts the generator within seconds — powering the whole home or just the circuits that matter. Typical residential sizes run about 10–26 kW.
Budget friendly
Portable generators
Wheeled gasoline or propane units, usually about 2,000–12,000 watts, that power essentials — refrigerator, lights, sump pump, furnace blower and device charging. Connect through a transfer switch or inlet box so cords never run through open doors.
Quiet & clean power
Inverter generators
Quieter, more fuel-efficient and lighter than conventional portables, with clean, stable power that is safe for laptops, phones, TVs and sensitive medical equipment. A smart pick for smaller loads, RVs and shorter outages.
Fuel flexibility
Dual-fuel & tri-fuel generators
Run on gasoline, propane or natural gas and switch fuels as supply allows. Propane stores indefinitely and natural gas never needs refilling — flexibility that matters in a long outage.
Heavy duty
Diesel & commercial standby
Built for larger homes, farms, workshops and businesses that cannot afford downtime. Long runtimes, heavy-duty engines and larger outputs, including three-phase options for commercial loads.
Silent & indoor-safe
Solar generators & power stations
Battery-based backup with no engine and no fumes, safe to run indoors and rechargeable from solar panels or a wall outlet. Ideal for apartments, short outages, and as the silent partner to rooftop solar and home batteries.
What a sound generator plan includes
Load calculationWe start with what must stay on — heat or AC, well and septic pumps, refrigeration, medical devices, sump pump, lights and internet — then size the generator to that real list.
Transfer switch choiceWhole-home automatic switching, or an essential-circuits panel that keeps the system smaller and the cost lower. Manual inlet setups for portables follow the same safety logic.
Fuel planNatural-gas line capacity, propane tank sizing, or safe gasoline and diesel storage — planned before installation day, not during an outage.
Placement, permits & safetyCode clearances from windows and openings, carbon-monoxide safety, local permits and noise rules — handled as part of the project.
The resilience stack
Solar + battery + generator covers every outage.
Solar makes the power. A battery covers short outages silently and instantly. A generator covers the long ones — multi-day storms, winter grid failures and heat waves. Designed together, each piece stays right-sized: the battery handles the everyday dips, and the generator only runs when it is truly needed.
Already have solar or a battery? We will design the generator around what you own, not start over.
How it works
From first call to a tested system
Consultation & load planWalk the home, list the critical loads and pick the generator type and size that fit.
Site & fuel setupPad and placement, gas or propane work, and electrical preparation by the licensed installer.
Install & transfer switchGenerator set, wired and connected so it starts automatically or connects safely.
Test & activationA simulated-outage test proves the system carries your loads before we call it done.
Ownership
A generator is an engine — treat it like one.
Automatic exercise
Standby units run a short self-test on a regular schedule, so the first start is not the first time it has run in a year.
Routine maintenance
Oil, filters, spark plugs and battery checks keep any generator ready. We will walk you through the schedule for your model.
Carbon-monoxide safety
Portable generators run outdoors only — never in a garage or near open windows. Standby units are placed to code with exhaust pointed away from the home.
Generator output, runtime and fuel use vary by model, fuel type and load. Sizing figures shown are typical residential ranges for education. Installation, permitting and final scope are provided by the applicable licensed installer or provider, and generator service availability varies by state and territory.

Carpet education
Four questions before you pick a swatch
How much foot traffic?Hallways and family rooms need density and resilience; bedrooms can prioritize softness.
Are pets part of the room?Look at stain resistance, snag risk, odor protection and cleanability.
What is below?Subfloor condition, stairs, seams and transitions affect labor and finish quality.
Which warranty conditions matter?Padding specification, professional cleaning and exclusions can determine coverage.
Loop pile
Durable and structured, but pet claws can be a consideration.
Cut pile
Soft, versatile and available in textures that help hide footprints.
Padding
The right density supports comfort and carpet life; thicker is not automatically better.
