Whole-House Generator Installation, Repair & Service

Yes. We hold Washington contractor licenses BALLANG062QD and BASHAAP823QR, and our technicians are licensed professionals. We are also a Mitsubishi Diamond Elite Contractor, a Trane Comfort Specialist and a Lennox Premier Dealer, and a longstanding member of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America.

Yes, annually, and it matters more than for equipment you use daily. A generator sits idle for months and then has to start on demand in bad weather. Annual service, plus its own self test cycle, is what makes that reliable rather than hopeful.

Either. Natural gas is usually simplest where there is already a supply, because it needs no refuelling and no tank. Propane suits homes without gas service. Both need adequate supply capacity, which we check before quoting.

Yes. Ballard Heating, Cooling, Electric & Plumbing offers financing options to help you spread the cost of larger projects, such as a new heat pump, furnace, air conditioner, water heater, or electrical panel upgrade, into manageable monthly payments. Visit our Financing page to see current options, or call us at 206-784-8101 and our team will walk you through what's available for your project.

We quote upfront, before the work starts, so there is no surprise at the end. For larger jobs we put a detailed proposal together onsite and back it with our Price Lock Guarantee, which means the price we put in writing is the price you pay. Estimates are free.

Since 1993. We have been locally-led and operated that whole time, which is more than thirty years working on homes in this region. That matters more than it sounds: Puget Sound housing stock runs from 1920s bungalows to new construction, and the right answer for one is rarely the right answer for the other.

Often the same day. If you call before 1pm we can usually get a technician to you that day, and members of our 5 Star Maintenance Plan go to the front of the queue. Our vans are stocked, so most common repairs are finished on the first visit rather than waiting on a part.

For many households, yes. Winter windstorms take power out across this region regularly, sometimes for days, and homes on wells or with sump pumps lose water supply and flood protection with it. A standby generator starts automatically, so it works whether you are home or not.

It is our annual maintenance membership. Members get discounted annual maintenance, priority service, no overtime charges, a discounted diagnostic fee that is free at the Platinum level, an extended repair warranty, discounted water heater service, and a reminder when your maintenance is due. Members who call before 1pm can usually be seen the same day.

It depends on what you want running. Some households back up essentials only, heating, refrigeration, well pump, sump pump and some lighting. Others back up the whole house. We size it from a load calculation once you have decided which, because that decision moves the cost more than anything else.

A three year labor warranty on our work as standard, plus a Lifetime Workmanship Warranty. Manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself run separately and vary by brand and model. A Comfort Shield Extended Warranty is available if you want coverage beyond that, and we will explain what each one covers before you decide.
