Never lose power again
When Isaias came through in August 2020, nearly the whole county went dark, and some homes waited days for NYSEG and Central Hudson crews to reach them. Wooded lots, overhead lines, and hilly roads mean Putnam loses power more often and stays out longer than the suburbs to our south. A whole house standby generator starts on its own within seconds of an outage and runs your heat, well pump, refrigerator, and sump pump until the grid comes back.

Quick answers
How much does a whole house generator cost installed?
Published ranges for New York run roughly $10,000 to $20,000 for a whole-home standby system installed, depending on size, fuel setup, and how far the unit sits from the panel. The installer gives you an exact written price after seeing your home. More answers.
Propane or natural gas?
Most homes in Putnam run on propane from a tank on the property, so that's how most standby generators here are set up. Where natural gas is available, the generator connects to it instead.
Do I need a permit?
Yes. Every Putnam town requires a building permit and inspection for a standby generator. The installer handles it.
