Free Generator Consultation & Estimate in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and North Dakota
Talk through your backup power needs with a Midwest specialist, by video or at your kitchen table, and leave with a free, no-obligation estimate.
Expert Advice, On Your Schedule
Why Start Your Generator Project with a Consultation?
Virtual or at-home, a consultation gives you expert advice on proper system sizing and placement from our Master Electricians. We work out what you want to keep running during an outage, recommend the right generator for your home, and prepare a free, no-obligation proposal. Appointments run Monday to Friday, 7 AM to 9 PM, with select Saturdays available.
Right-Sizing
We help you choose a right-sized backup power system, so you are not paying for capacity you will never use or running short on the night it matters.
Placement & Site
Advice on where the generator sits, the fuel supply, the transfer switch location and the state codes and compliance standards your installation has to meet.
Product Selection
Guidance on the right Generac line for your home, from the Guardian Series to the QuietSource Series, or a Kohler, Winco, Cummins or Briggs & Stratton unit where it fits better.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Generator Consultations
How does a virtual consultation work?
Over a video call from any device, a Midwest specialist goes through what you need backed up, the generator size and where it would sit, then prepares your free estimate. No home visit is needed, though most customers choose one.
Is the estimate really free?
Yes. Midwest estimates and proposals are free, with no obligation and no pressure.
How soon can I get a consultation?
Book online or call, and a local Midwest representative reaches out within 24 hours to set a time. Appointments run Monday to Friday, 7 AM to 9 PM, with select Saturdays available.
How is generator size determined?
From the loads you want covered. Our Master Electricians list what has to keep running when the grid goes down, from the furnace and well pump to the whole house, and match the generator to that list.
What do I need for the consultation?
Only your questions and a rough list of what must stay on in an outage, such as the furnace or the well pump. Working out the size and the placement is our job.
Can I finance my generator?
Yes. Financing is through Synchrony Bank, subject to credit approval: you can prequalify in seconds, with no down payment and monthly payments.
