Why Choose Hobbs
Why Fort Worth Families Choose Backup Generators
Texas storms are unpredictable — summer lightning strikes knock out power for hours; winter ice storms leave families in the cold; tornadoes upend entire neighborhoods. When the grid fails, you’re left without heating, cooling, refrigeration, lights, and water pumps. A whole-home generator ensures your family stays comfortable, safe, and connected while others are left in the dark. We handle everything from site assessment and equipment sizing to professional installation, ongoing maintenance, and emergency repair.

Generator Sizing
Choosing the Right Generator for Your Home
Generator sizing is critical — too small, and your system shuts down after a brief run; too large, and you overpay for capacity you’ll never use. We evaluate your home’s power needs.
Essential Systems
Which circuits must keep running during an outage? Typically: HVAC, refrigerator, water pump, security system, lights, well pump if applicable.
Starting vs. Running Power
Some equipment (AC compressors, furnace blowers) require high starting current but lower running power. The generator must handle that peak demand.
Simultaneous Operation
Can your AC and furnace run simultaneously? Can the AC start while the refrigerator and well pump are operating? Load analysis ensures the generator’s capacity covers your actual usage patterns.
Local Utility Connection
Your generator’s size must comply with your utility’s requirements. We handle all coordination with Oncor (Fort Worth’s primary utility) to ensure code compliance.

Answering Your Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Generators
Home generators typically range from 10 kW to 24 kW for residential use. A 12–16 kW generator covers most homes’ essential systems. We perform a load analysis to recommend the right size for your home, fuel source, and essential circuits.
Yes. If your home has natural gas service, a natural gas generator is the simplest — no fuel storage needed. Propane is ideal for homes without gas service; the generator runs off a propane tank stored on-site. Both are efficient and reliable for long-term outages.
A complete system (generator, transfer switch, installation, permitting) typically costs $8,000–15,000 depending on size and fuel type. Financing is available through Wells Fargo for qualified homeowners. Utility rebates may apply in some cases, reducing net cost.
A natural gas generator can run indefinitely as long as your gas supply is uninterrupted. Propane generators depend on tank size; a typical 1,000-gallon tank provides weeks of continuous operation for a home-sized generator. During a prolonged outage, fuel is the only limiting factor.
No. A properly installed generator with an automatic transfer switch provides clean power to your HVAC and other systems. The transfer switch disconnects utility power during an outage, preventing backfeed that could damage equipment or endanger utility workers. Everything is designed for safe operation.
Yes. Generator installation in Fort Worth requires city and utility permits and inspections. We handle all permitting, inspections, and code compliance. Unpermitted installations can create liability and won’t be covered by homeowner insurance.
Annual or bi-annual maintenance includes oil and filter changes, fuel system inspection, battery testing, transfer switch testing, and a load test to verify the generator operates under actual conditions. Regular maintenance ensures reliability and extends system life.
Portable generators are much less expensive but require manual operation, fuel management, and external wiring. A whole-home generator is automatic, seamless, and integrates fully with your home’s electrical system. Portables are adequate for emergency backup; whole-home systems provide true peace of mind.
A generator only runs during an outage and is not connected to the grid, so it doesn’t affect normal utility bills. You pay only for the fuel it consumes (natural gas or propane). During an outage, the generator costs far less than equivalent kilowatt-hours from a typical utility rate.
Yes. Our maintenance plans can include generator service. You’ll get annual testing and maintenance, priority repair scheduling, and member discounts on service work. Many customers find the plan cost recovered through one prevented emergency repair.
