As an authorized Generac dealer, Yemen Electric supplies, installs, and services the full Generac lineup. In the Ottawa Valley, reliable backup power isn't a luxury — it's a necessity.

Winter storms and summer thunderstorms both take down power across the Ottawa Valley, sometimes for days at a time. A standby generator switches on automatically within seconds of an outage, whether you're home or not — no manual startup, no running extension cords through a window.

We handle the full installation from start to finish: the load assessment, the ESA permit, the concrete pad and gas line coordination, the transfer switch, and the final commissioning — so all you have to do is decide on the size.

Once your generator is installed, we don't disappear. Generac units need periodic maintenance to stay reliable — oil changes, battery checks, and a test run under load — and we offer maintenance programs so your system is ready the moment the power actually goes out, not just sitting in the yard unused.

If you already own a Generac unit that someone else installed, we're still happy to take over service and maintenance — you don't need to have bought it from us for us to keep it running.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size Generac generator do I need for my home?

How long does a Generac installation take?

Most home standby generator installations are completed in one to two days depending on complexity and any required utility work.
