The Problem

Minnesota winters bring ice storms, high winds, and extended power outages that leave families without heat, light, and refrigeration. A properly sized standby generator — or a code-compliant manual portable generator inlet — eliminates that risk.

Our Solution

Lotus Electric is an authorized Generac dealership with certified Generac technicians on staff. Our licensed electricians handle every step of a generator project, install Generac standby units along with Kohler and Briggs & Stratton, and configure code-compliant manual portable generator inlets and interlocks for homeowners who already own a portable unit. Every installation meets National Electrical Code Standards and Minnesota gas codes, and we coordinate permits and inspections so you don't have to.

Generators FAQ

What size generator does a typical Duluth home need?

Most Duluth homes need a 16–22 kW standby generator to power essential circuits including heating, refrigeration, and lighting. We perform a detailed load calculation to size your unit correctly.

How long does generator installation take?

A standard residential generator installation takes 1–2 days once the concrete pad is set and gas line is run. We coordinate all trades to minimize disruption.

Do standby generators turn on automatically?

Yes. The automatic transfer switch detects a power loss and starts the generator within 10–30 seconds — no manual action required, even if you're away from home.

What brands of generators does Lotus Electric install?

We install Generac, Kohler, and Briggs & Stratton standby generators. We help you choose the right brand and model based on your power needs and budget.
