BRENTWOOD DETAILSBackup power
Backup power
in Brentwood.
An outage during a Brentwood heat wave means no AC. That matters most for older residents, including many in Trilogy and Summerset, and for anyone on medical equipment.
01
Inlet and interlock
A listed inlet and panel interlock let a portable generator safely run selected circuits.
02
Standby generators
An automatic transfer switch starts the generator when PG&E power drops. Sizing decides whether central AC can run.
03
Placement and permit
HAXX plans setbacks and exhaust clearances, submits the City of Brentwood permit, and you confirm any HOA rules in gated communities.

★★★★★
“Recently, my dishwasher stopped working, and they discovered it was actually an outlet issue. Not only did they diagnose it quickly, but they also fixed the outlet—saving me from calling an electrician. Reliable, professional, and skilled at handling both appliances and electrical issues.”
★★★★★
“I purchased a couple of ceiling fans and was reluctant due to how old my house was with old wiring so I wanted someone professional and trustworthy. They have been both!”
★★★★★
“Prompt and professional - they helped run a new thermostat wire through a wall and crawl space.”

GOOD TO KNOW
Generator Installation in Brentwood: questions, answered.
Can a generator run my central AC?
It can if it is sized for the compressor's starting load. HAXX calculates it, and a soft-start kit can reduce the size needed.
Is back-feeding through a dryer outlet safe?
No. It can energize utility lines and injure line workers. Use a transfer switch or a listed inlet and interlock.
Can I plug a generator into an outlet?
No. Back-feeding through an outlet is dangerous for you and for utility workers. Use an inlet with an interlock or a transfer switch.
What size generator do I need?
It depends on the circuits you want to keep powered. HAXX lists your critical loads and sizes the generator to them.
