# llms-full.txt — UTS ElectricPros complete corpus Generated 2026-10-20. 148 pages. Authorized Cummins generator dealer and licensed Texas electrical contractor (TECL #40628) serving the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. ALL PRICES IN THIS FILE ARE EQUIPMENT ONLY. Installation is quoted separately in writing after a free on-site survey and is never included in a listed price. UTS ElectricPros is an independent authorized dealer, not Cummins Inc. ============================================================================== # About UTS ElectricPros | Authorized Cummins Dealer in DFW **URL:** https://utselectricpros.com/about **Summary:** Authorized Cummins dealer and online retailer. Ships from Cummins stock in Dallas and installs across Dallas-Fort Worth with its own licensed crews. **Overview:** UTS ElectricPros, LLC is both an authorized Cummins Residential and Light Commercial generator dealer and a licensed Texas electrical contractor, which is unusual: most sellers are one or the other. Online retailers ship equipment and cannot install, permit or service it; electricians can install but are not factory dealers. The dealer authorization is what makes the equipment, the parts and the factory warranty valid; the electrical license is what lets the same company that sold the machine also connect it. Installation is performed by Clements Electric, the assumed name (dba) under which UTS ElectricPros, LLC operates its licensed electrical contracting business, so it is the same legal entity rather than a subcontracted stranger. Equipment prices are published on every model. Installation is never quoted sight-unseen; the on-site survey takes about 45 minutes and is free. Neither company location is a walk-in showroom, which keeps retail overhead out of the price. --- Who we are # About UTS ElectricPros We are a licensed Texas electrical contractor and an authorized Cummins Residential and Light Commercial generator dealer, working across the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## The combination that matters Most generator sellers are one thing or the other. Online retailers ship boxes and have no ability to install, permit or service what they sell. Electricians install equipment they buy through a distributor and have no dealer relationship behind it. We are both. The dealer authorization means factory equipment, factory parts and valid factory warranty. The electrical license means the company that sold it to you is the company that installs it, pulls the permit, meets the inspector and answers the phone in year three. ## How we sell We publish what we are able to. Every residential and light commercial generator and every transfer switch carries its equipment price on the page, to the cent. Open-set diesel and permanently installed units above 100kW are quoted directly rather than listed, because they are specified against your service and switchgear rather than sold off a shelf. Our Cummins mobile trailer-mounted generators, 12kW to 200kW, are the exception: they are complete rental packages sold to rental companies and commercial buyers, so every one carries a published price. We publish the rest because you will find those numbers anyway, and a dealer who hides the equipment price is usually hiding more than that. We do not quote installation without seeing the property. Installation price is driven by physical facts — gas meter capacity, line runs, panel location, local permitting — and a number produced without seeing them is either padded or provisional. ## The dealer and the installer UTS ElectricPros is the authorized Cummins dealer. That is the relationship that gets you factory equipment bought direct from Cummins, factory parts, a valid factory warranty that we can authorize ourselves, and Cummins factory extended warranties in 5, 7 and 10 year terms. It is the business this site belongs to. The installation is performed by [Clements Electric](https://clementselectric.com/) , the assumed name (dba) under which UTS ElectricPros, LLC operates its licensed electrical contracting crews from Grand Prairie. One company and one license, under two names: the dealership sells the equipment, Clements Electric installs and services it. Every installation is done by our own crews; we do not use subcontractors. When UTS ElectricPros bought the Clements Electric business, it bought its history and its customer reviews along with it. UTS ElectricPros, LLC is owned by UTS, LLC, which also operates [UTS BuildPros](https://utsbuildpros.com/) and [UTS ServicePros](https://utsservicepros.com/); the dealership was formed as its own LLC so the electrical license sits in a single entity. [★★★★★ 4.7 from 500+ Google reviews — installed by Clements Electric, DFW electricians since 1982](https://maps.google.com/maps?cid=3976497238318490434) Most of this industry splits those roles across strangers. Online retailers ship a box and leave you to find an electrician. Lead sites sell your phone number to whoever pays most. Here the sale and the installation sit inside one relationship, so nobody gets to point at the other when something needs sorting out later. ## An online retailer with local stock UTS ElectricPros is an online retailer and authorized Cummins dealer. Equipment ships from stock at the Cummins Regional Distribution Center in Dallas, Texas, inside the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, not from an out-of-state warehouse. An order placed online is delivered direct to your door, in Texas or any other state. For an installation in Dallas-Fort Worth, our own crews collect the unit at the distribution center, deliver it to your property and install it. There is no showroom or retail counter, which is part of why the prices are what they are. Neither of our offices is a walk-in showroom. That keeps retail overhead out of the price. ## Who you deal with Robert Ramsey , Internet Sales Contact.

Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Keeping it running The parts a generator consumes. These are the items that decide whether the machine starts on the night it matters. ### Preventative Maintenance Kit Parts for a scheduled maintenance interval. Cummins part A054H068 ### Battery — Group 51R, 450 CCA The correct starting battery. A weak battery is a common reason a standby generator fails to start. Cummins part A052Y816 ### Enclosure paint touch-up kit Matches the factory enclosure finish. Cummins part A043J735 Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Part of the installation Specified at the site survey and quoted with the job. You do not need to order these yourself. ### Concrete composite mounting pad 3 inch thick, 1 inch overhang. Faster and usually cheaper than pouring concrete. Cummins part A052A795 ### Extreme Cold Weather Kit For installations that go below 0°F. Not needed on the AE and ACE models, which already include it. Cummins part A054B984 ### E-stop kit Externally mounted emergency stop button. Cummins part A044Z051 Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Load management and monitoring How a smaller generator covers a larger house, and how you keep an eye on it. ### Load Add / Load Shed device Lets the generator control up to two 50 A loads. Cummins part A051C329 ### Integrated ATS & load panel Combines a 100 A non-service-entrance ATS with a load panel in a NEMA 1 box.

[All transfer switches and prices](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches) RA accessory kit — part A076C684 — $221.11 ## On pricing We publish a price for every generator and every transfer switch we sell, because those are the numbers you can compare between dealers. Accessory pricing we quote against your job rather than list, for a reason worth stating plainly: most of these are specified at the survey, several are cheaper bundled into an installation than bought separately, and a mounting pad quoted without knowing your ground conditions is a guess. The part numbers are here so you can verify what you are being charged for, whoever you buy from. If you want a price on any of them, ask — we will give you one. Part numbers are from the Cummins published specification sheet for the air-cooled Connect range. [Download it from Cummins](https://mart.cummins.com/imagelibrary/data/assetfiles/0058055.pdf).

Sized for farms, poultry houses and dairies. **Overview:** UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth, supplies Cummins agricultural standby diesel generators from 60kW to 200kW: C60D6, C80D6C, C100D6C, C125D6D, C150D6D, C175D6D, C200D6D. They use a heavy-duty 4-cycle industrial diesel engine and Cummins PowerCommand electronic control with self-diagnostics, a flexible exercise mode, and battle short mode, which lets the generator override faults that would normally shut it down. They are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only under TECL #40628; equipment can be supplied nationwide. --- Farms · poultry · dairy · irrigation # Cummins agricultural standby generators, 60kW to 200kW Heavy-duty diesel standby built by Cummins for agricultural operations and designed to run under extreme environmental conditions. Sized to the motors you need to start, and quoted with the installation after we see the site. [Request a farm quote](https://utselectricpros.com/quote?model=C100D6C) [(214) 957-4307](tel:+12149574307) Manufacturer render of the Cummins agricultural standby range. Configuration varies by model. ## What Cummins builds into the range ### Battle short mode Lets the generator override faults that would normally shut it down. When the load is ventilation, water or refrigeration for livestock, keeping the set running can matter more than protecting the engine from a non-critical fault. ### Heavy-duty industrial diesel A rugged 4-cycle industrial diesel engine that responds quickly to load changes, with fuel stored on site so the operation does not depend on a gas utility. ### PowerCommand electronic control Cummins' self-diagnostic control, so a fault is identified and reported rather than discovered during the next outage. ### Flexible exercise mode Set the weekly exercise to suit the operation, which cuts unnecessary fuel use, emissions and noise between outages. ## The range | Model | Standby | Prime | Engine | Size (LxWxH in) | Part | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cummins C60D6 | 60 kW | 54 kW | Cummins B3.3-G7 | 88 x 34 x 44 | A060A345 | | Cummins C80D6C | 80 kW | 72 kW | Cummins QSB5-G13 | 98 x 38 x 52 | A061T469 | | Cummins C100D6C | 100 kW | 90 kW | Cummins QSB5-G13 | 98 x 38 x 52 | A061T471 | | Cummins C125D6D | 125 kW | 113 kW | Cummins QSB7-G5 | 113 x 40 x 56 | A060A344 | | Cummins C150D6D | 150 kW | 135 kW | Cummins QSB7-G5 | 113 x 40 x 56 | A061T474 | | Cummins C175D6D | 175 kW | 160 kW | Cummins QSB7-G5 | 113 x 40 x 56 | A061T476 | | Cummins C200D6D | 200 kW | 180 kW | Cummins QSB7-G5 | 113 x 40 x 56 | A061T477 | Supplied open-frame. Quoted per project with installation, switchgear and fuel arrangement. Each model has its own page with full specifications, and the same range is listed for non-farm buyers on [light commercial diesel](https://utselectricpros.com/light-commercial-generators). ## Watch: battle short mode and farm loads Cummins Agricultural Standby Generator with Battle Short Mode, 60-200 kW Diesel Battle short mode for poultry, dairy and irrigation loads, sized to the largest motor rather than acreage. Our own Short, built from Cummins manufacturer imagery. [Watch on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mK_8VjCHgOU). ## The loads we size against on a farm Generator sizing on an agricultural site is decided by motor starting, not by the building footprint. The largest motor that has to start on generator power usually sets the kilowatt figure, so the survey starts with a list of what runs and what must restart automatically after an outage. ### Irrigation and water Pivots, submersible well pumps and booster pumps. These are the hardest starting loads on most properties and often decide the size of the set on their own. ### Livestock ventilation and water Poultry house fans and feed lines, barn ventilation, stock waterers. In a Texas summer these are the loads where minutes matter, which is the case battle short mode exists for. ### Dairy and cold storage Vacuum pumps, milk cooling and refrigeration. Continuous loads that must ride through a multi-day outage rather than restart at the end of it. ### Grain handling and drying Dryers, aeration fans, augers and elevators. Seasonal, but during that season an outage is measured in spoiled crop rather than inconvenience. ### Shop, office and residence Many operations put the house, the shop and the office on the same standby set. That changes the transfer switch arrangement more than it changes the generator. ### Single phase or three phase Rural services are often single phase, while larger irrigation and processing equipment is three phase. We confirm the service and the equipment before anything is ordered, because the alternator is built to that answer. ## Questions ### What is battle short mode? Battle short mode lets the generator override faults that would normally shut it down. On a farm the load it protects, such as ventilation, water or refrigeration, can be worth more than the engine, so running through a non-critical fault is a deliberate choice. It is a feature Cummins builds into its agricultural standby range. ### What sizes do Cummins agricultural standby generators come in? C60D6 (60kW), C80D6C (80kW), C100D6C (100kW), C125D6D (125kW), C150D6D (150kW), C175D6D (175kW), C200D6D (200kW). All run on diesel with a heavy-duty 4-cycle industrial engine and Cummins PowerCommand electronic control. ### What size generator does an irrigation or poultry operation need? It depends on the largest motor that has to start on generator power and on what has to run at the same time, not on acreage or building size. A single pivot or a large submersible pump can set the size by itself. We list the loads at the survey, confirm whether the service is single or three phase, and size the set against the starting requirement. ### Where does the fuel come from? Diesel is stored on site, which is the reason most agricultural operations choose it: the generator does not depend on the same utility or gas supply that the outage may have taken out. Runtime is a function of the tank arrangement, and we size that against how long the operation needs to keep running unattended. ### Why is there no price on these models? Agricultural standby sets are specified against the operation: the size of the motors being started, the service voltage, the switchgear and the fuel arrangement. We quote the equipment and the installation together after looking at the site, rather than publishing a shelf price that would not survive the survey. ### Do you install agricultural generators outside Dallas-Fort Worth? Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed under Texas electrical contractor license TECL #40628. The equipment itself can be supplied anywhere in the United States for your own electrician to install. ## Protect the operation, not just the house We install across 27 Dallas-Fort Worth communities, and supply equipment anywhere in the United States. Tell us what has to keep running and we will size it.

Poultry houses need ventilation, dairies need milking and milk cooling, and wells need pumping. The clock on that is short, and what is at stake is livestock, not spoiled groceries. ### Why it becomes urgent Rural distribution lines are longer, more exposed and restored later than suburban ones, so the same storm leaves a farm without power for longer. ### Who buys it Poultry houses, dairies, row-crop irrigation and anyone whose animals depend on a fan or a pump running.

Written by a Cummins dealer, bias disclosed. **Overview:** A comparison of Cummins and Generac home standby generators written by a Cummins dealer, with that bias disclosed up front, and confined to claims defensible from public market facts or the dealer's own published data. Generac is favored on dealer and service density, with substantially more dealers and broader rural coverage against Cummins dealers concentrated in metro areas; on range below 13kW, where Cummins starts at 13kW and Generac offers smaller models; and on consumer brand recognition, Generac being the default name in home standby while Cummins is known for engines and commercial power. Cummins is favored on published equipment pricing, because its advertised price is held consistent across the channel and can therefore be published to the cent, where Generac is commonly quoted per dealer. Competitor decibel ratings, warranty terms and failure rates are deliberately excluded rather than copied and allowed to go stale. --- Bias disclosed up front # Cummins vs Generac We sell Cummins. You should read this knowing that. What follows is a comparison we can defend on the specifications and the market facts, including the places where Generac is genuinely the better answer — because a comparison that finds no fault with the writer's own product is not a comparison, it is an advertisement. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Cummins vs Generac: side by side Every row below is a claim we can defend from public market facts or our own published data. We deliberately do not put competitor decibel ratings, warranty terms or failure rates in this table — those get copied carelessly around the industry, go stale, and we would rather be quotable than comprehensive. | Decision factor | Cummins | Generac | Who it favors | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Dealer and service density | Fewer dealers, concentrated in metro areas | Substantially more dealers, broader rural coverage | Generac | | Range below 13kW | Line starts at 13kW | Offers models below 13kW | Generac | | Consumer brand recognition | Known for engines and commercial power | The default name in home standby | Generac | | Published equipment pricing | Advertised price held consistent across the channel, so it can be published to the cent | Commonly quoted per dealer rather than published | Cummins | | Continuity into light commercial and three-phase | 13kW residential through 200kW diesel on one dealer, parts channel and service organization | Separate residential and commercial channels | Cummins | | Engineering lineage | Primary business is industrial and commercial power generation | Primary business is residential standby | Cummins | | Air-cooled hardware at 13–20kW | Aluminum enclosure, SE-rated transfer switch option, load management, mobile monitoring | Aluminum enclosure, SE-rated transfer switch option, load management, mobile monitoring | Neither — genuinely comparable | | What actually strands homeowners | Undersized for the AC load, gas line never upsized, transfer switch sized to the generator, maintenance skipped | Identical failure modes | Neither — these are install and service problems | Cummins equipment prices are published on every model page and reviewed 2026-08-28. We do not publish Generac prices because we are not a Generac dealer and would be quoting someone else's number. ## Where Generac genuinely wins Dealer density. Generac has far more dealers, in far more places, than Cummins does. If you live somewhere rural, the practical question of who can be at your house in 48 hours during a regional outage may favor Generac purely on coverage. That is a real advantage and it is not close. Product breadth at the low end. Generac fields more variants in the small residential sizes, including models below what Cummins offers. If your budget or your load genuinely lands under 13kW, Generac has options we do not. Brand recognition. Generac is the default name in home standby. That matters for resale conversations with buyers who have heard of one brand and not the other. ## Where Cummins wins The engine business behind it. Cummins is an engine and power-generation company whose primary business is industrial and commercial power — the same company builds standby power for hospitals and data centers. The residential line inherits that engineering lineage and that parts and service infrastructure. Commercial continuity. If you may eventually need light commercial or three-phase power, Cummins runs continuously from a 13kW residential air-cooled unit up through 200kW diesel on one dealer relationship, one parts channel and one service organization. Transparent, disciplined pricing. Cummins holds its advertised pricing consistent across the channel, which is why we can publish our prices on this site to the cent and invite you to compare. Price shopping between authorized Cummins dealers is a short exercise. ## What does not actually differentiate them Both brands build competent air-cooled residential units in the 13kW to 24kW range on similar architectures. Both use aluminum enclosures, both offer service-entrance rated transfer switches, both support load management, and both have mobile monitoring. Anyone telling you one of these is categorically superior at the same output and price point is selling, not analyzing. The failure modes that actually strand homeowners are almost never brand-level. They are a generator sized too small for the air conditioning, a gas line that was never upsized, a transfer switch specified to the generator instead of the service, or maintenance that never happened. All four are installation and service problems, not badge problems. ## The honest decision rule At residential sizes, choose the installer before you choose the brand. The equipment is more similar than the marketing suggests, and the install quality varies enormously. Ask any dealer, us included: are your crews employees or subcontractors? Who pulls the permit? What is your response time in year three, after the sale? Will you put the installation price in writing before I pay anything? Those answers will predict your experience far better than the name on the enclosure. We deliberately do not publish claims about competitor recalls, litigation or field failure rates. Those get repeated carelessly across the industry, they are frequently out of date, and we would rather win on what we can document. ## Questions ### Is Cummins more expensive than Generac? It depends entirely on the model pair you compare, and on whether the transfer switch is in the box. Our combo units include a 200A service-entrance rated switch, which is the comparison most price charts get wrong by omitting. Every one of our prices is published, so you can do the arithmetic yourself rather than take our word for it. ### Can you service a Generac I already own? We are a licensed electrical contractor and can perform electrical work on an existing installation, but warranty service on a Generac has to go through a Generac dealer. If you have an out-of-warranty unit and need electrical work around it, call us and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right people. ### Does the brand affect my home insurance or resale value? In our experience neither insurer nor appraiser distinguishes between major standby brands. What they care about is that the installation was permitted and inspected. An unpermitted generator is the thing that causes problems at closing, regardless of who made it. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.

Sizing is decided by air conditioning load rather than square footage: a 2,500 to 3,500 square foot DFW home with two AC systems is usually 20kW with load management. On fuel, natural gas suits most of DFW because there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit while the main holds pressure; propane applies where there is no gas service. Also covers what a system costs, how installation works, permits, and warranty coverage. --- Everything, in one place # Generator questions, answered The questions DFW homeowners actually ask, answered without hedging. If yours is not here, [ask us directly](https://utselectricpros.com/contact) — we would rather answer it than have you guess. ## Questions ### What size generator do I need for my house? Air conditioning decides it, not square footage. A 2,500 to 3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems is usually 20kW with load management. Under about 1,800 sq ft with one system, 13kW to 17kW often covers it. Above 4,000 sq ft, or with a pool, well or three-plus HVAC zones, you are into liquid-cooled at 25kW and up. The sizing calculator gets you a range in two minutes. ### Natural gas, propane or diesel? Natural gas if you have gas service, which is most of DFW. There is no tank to fill and no runtime limit while the main holds pressure. Propane if you have no gas main — it stores indefinitely and does not degrade, but you are limited by tank size. Diesel for large loads, fixed runtime requirements, or where code requires on-site fuel. Diesel starts at 20kW and is mostly a commercial answer. ### How loud is it? Quiet enough that you will hear the AC compressor over it at normal distances, and it only runs during an outage plus a brief weekly exercise cycle. You can set the exercise for a mid-week mid-morning slot so it never wakes anyone. Diesel sets are louder, which is why the enclosed models exist. ### How often does it run when there is no outage? A weekly self-exercise cycle of roughly 10 to 20 minutes, which is what keeps seals lubricated and confirms it will start. That cycle is what makes the difference between a generator that works during an ice storm and a very expensive lawn ornament. ### Will it run my air conditioning? A properly sized standby unit will. A portable will not. Central AC is exactly the load that separates the two categories, and in a Texas summer it is usually the load that actually matters. ### Do I need a permit? Yes, everywhere in DFW. Depending on city and scope that can mean electrical and mechanical permits and one or two inspections. We pull them and meet the inspector, and the fees are inside your quote. An unpermitted generator is also the thing that causes problems when you sell the house. ### Can I install it myself? No, not legally and not safely. It is a permitted gas and electrical installation that ties into the utility service. Self-installation typically voids the manufacturer warranty, will not pass inspection, and creates a genuine back-feed hazard for utility crews. ### How long until it takes over during an outage? Typically about 10 to 20 seconds. The transfer switch confirms the utility is genuinely down rather than flickering, starts the generator, lets it stabilize, then transfers. You will notice the gap; it is supposed to be there. ### What happens if it fails during an outage? Call us. We service what we install, and we hold the manufacturer relationship, so you are not refereeing between a retailer and an installer. This is the main practical argument for buying equipment and installation from the same licensed company. ### Does a generator add value to my home? It is generally viewed as a desirable feature in Texas, particularly after 2021. We would not buy one as an investment — buy it because a multi-day outage in July or January is a serious problem for your household. The permit record matters at resale; the brand rarely does. ### Why can you not just tell me the installed price on the phone? Because four physical facts drive it and none are visible remotely: pad-to-meter distance, whether the gas line carries the load, the run to the panel, and the local permit requirements. Anyone quoting installation sight-unseen is padding to cover the unknown, or will revise it later. ### Do you sell towable or rental generators? Yes. We sell the Cummins mobile rental-package line on DOT trailers, from the 12kW C12D6RE to the 200kW C200D2RE, all EPA Tier 4 Final, to equipment rental companies and to businesses that need power for a specific commercial job. Prices are published on every model, Cummins configures the voltage you select before the unit ships, and freight is quoted per shipment. Tax-exempt purchases require a valid Texas resale or exemption certificate. Without one on file, sales tax is charged at checkout. To buy tax-exempt, call us with your certificate before ordering; online checkout cannot accept one. ### What is your service area? The Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex for generators. Our commercial electrical division covers a wider Texas footprint including Waco, Tyler, Abilene and Oklahoma City. ### Where do your generators ship from? Do you stock them locally? UTS ElectricPros is an online retailer and authorized Cummins dealer. Equipment ships from stock at the Cummins Regional Distribution Center in Dallas, Texas, inside the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, not from an out-of-state warehouse. An order placed online is delivered direct to your door, in Texas or any other state. For an installation in Dallas-Fort Worth, our own crews collect the unit at the distribution center, deliver it to your property and install it. There is no showroom or retail counter, which is part of why the prices are what they are. ### Do you sell portable generators, or only home standby? Both. We sell the full Cummins Onan portable range online at published prices, alongside home standby, RV and mobile trailer units. A portable needs no installation, permit or electrician. Order it on the site and it ships from Cummins stock in Dallas direct to your door. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.

What each covers. **Overview:** UTS ElectricPros offers two financing routes. Equipment bought online can be paid monthly with Affirm or Klarna directly at checkout, in 3 to 36 month terms, and the cart has a dedicated "Check out with monthly payments" button that opens checkout on those two lenders; Affirm's published ceiling is $30,000 including freight and sales tax, and on the largest units it is not always offered, in which case Klarna may be; Affirm rates range from 10% to 36% APR subject to eligibility, and prequalification is a soft credit check. Online checkout covers equipment only, so a complete installed whole-house project of $13,500 to $17,000 is financed instead through a home improvement lender, home equity line, or a construction or renovation mortgage. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The two routes do not combine on one project: if UTS ElectricPros performs the installation, the equipment and the work are a single contract at a single price, financed as a project rather than split between the cart and the crew. Affirm applies when you buy equipment only and arrange your own licensed installer. --- Options # Financing your generator There are two different purchases here and they finance differently. The equipment can be paid monthly at checkout, today, with no phone call. The complete installed project is a larger number and takes a different route. Both are below, along with where each one stops. ## Buying equipment: pay monthly with Affirm Every generator, transfer switch and portable on this site can be paid monthly. Choose Affirm at checkout the same way you would choose a card, and Affirm shows you the exact monthly payment and the total cost before you agree to anything. Terms run 3 to 36 months depending on the amount, and prequalification is a soft credit check that does not affect your score. How to do it: - Add the equipment to your cart. - In the cart, choose Check out with monthly payments . Checkout opens on Affirm and Klarna instead of the card form. - Enter your delivery details, pick Affirm or Klarna, and continue to the lender to check your rate and choose a term. - Confirm with the lender. You come back to our order confirmation, and we call before booking delivery. Used the regular Check out button instead? The lenders are still there: open More payment methods below the card fields. Affirm pays us in full upfront and collects from you over time. That matters for one reason worth stating plainly: choosing it does not change your price . There is no financing cost folded into the number, and no cash discount you are missing by using it. Klarna is available at checkout as well, on its own terms. Affirm is the one that reaches the longer terms this ticket size usually calls for, which is why it is the one described here. Rates range from 10% to 36% APR, subject to eligibility, and some amounts and terms are offered at 0% APR. Your terms are set by Affirm, not by us. See [Affirm's lending terms](https://affirm.com/disclosures). The one limit worth knowing before you fill a cart. Affirm's published ceiling for a single purchase is $30,000, and it applies to the whole charge — equipment plus freight plus sales tax, not the list price. Affirm also decides order by order, so on our largest units it is not always offered at checkout; when it is not, Klarna may be. If neither fits, call [(214) 957-4307](tel:+12149574307) and we will talk it through. [Browse published prices](https://utselectricpros.com/generators). ## Financing the installed project An online order covers equipment only. Installation, permits and the transfer switch are quoted after a free site survey at your address, so they are never part of the online transaction — which also means Affirm cannot fund them. A complete whole-house system in DFW typically lands between $13,500 and $17,000 installed, and for that number the routes are a home improvement loan, a home equity line, or rolling it into a construction or renovation mortgage. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. We work with home-improvement lenders who specialize in this ticket size. You get a real rate and a real monthly payment before committing, through a soft credit pull. Approval and funding are handled directly between you and the lender — we never see your financial details, and the financing decision has no effect on your installation price or your place in our schedule. [The four routes compared, including the one to avoid](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/finance-generator-into-home-loan). ## Which route applies to you The dividing line is who installs the generator, and it is worth knowing before you start, because it decides how the whole purchase is written up. You arrange your own licensed installer. You are buying equipment, so you buy it here and Affirm is available at checkout like any other payment method. Delivery and sales tax are part of that transaction. We install it. Then the generator and the work are a single contract at a single price, not a cart purchase followed by a separate bill. That is how a permanent improvement to your property is properly contracted in Texas, and it is why the installed project is financed as a project — a home improvement loan, a home equity line, or a renovation mortgage — rather than split between Affirm and a second payment. You get one number after the survey and finance that number. ## What to watch for Deferred-interest and zero-percent promotional offers are common in home improvement, and they are not free. The lender charges the contractor a substantial fee to fund them, and that fee has to come from somewhere — usually the project price. A straightforward fixed-rate loan is frequently the cheaper outcome for the customer even though the advertised rate looks worse. We will tell you which structure is genuinely better for your situation, including when the answer is not to finance at all. ## Paying outright If you are paying cash, the equipment price is the published price and the installation price is whatever the written quote says. There is no cash discount to negotiate, because there is no financing cost baked in to remove. ## Questions ### Can I pay monthly for a generator? Yes. Equipment bought on this site can be paid monthly with Affirm or Klarna. In your cart, choose "Check out with monthly payments" and checkout opens on those two options directly. Terms run 3 to 36 months depending on the amount. Affirm pays us in full upfront, so choosing it does not change your price or your place in the schedule. ### Will checking my rate hurt my credit? No. Affirm's prequalification is a soft check that does not affect your score. The same is true of the home improvement lenders we refer for installed projects — a hard inquiry only happens if you accept an offer and proceed. ### What does Affirm cost? It depends on the amount and the term you pick. Affirm publishes rates ranging from 10% to 36% APR, subject to eligibility, and shorter terms on some amounts are offered at 0% APR. Affirm shows you the exact monthly payment and total before you commit. See [Affirm's lending terms](https://affirm.com/disclosures) for the details. ### Is there a limit on what Affirm will cover? Affirm's published ceiling for a single purchase is $30,000, and it applies to the whole charge — equipment plus freight plus sales tax, not the list price alone. Below that, Affirm still decides order by order which purchases it will offer terms on, so on our largest units it is not always shown at checkout. When it is not, Klarna may be, and you can always call us to talk through financing the purchase another way. ### Can I finance the installation too? Not through checkout. Online orders cover equipment only — installation, permits and the transfer switch are quoted after a free site survey, so they are not part of the online transaction. For the complete installed project the routes are a home improvement loan, a home equity line, or rolling it into a construction or renovation mortgage. [Each one is compared here](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/finance-generator-into-home-loan). ### Can I finance just the installation and pay cash for the equipment? You can pay however you like — cash for part of it, financing for the rest, or financing for all of it. What does not change is the paperwork: when we install the generator, the equipment and the work are one contract at one price, because that is how a permanent improvement to your property is contracted in Texas. So the number you finance is a share of one project price rather than a separate equipment invoice and a separate labor invoice. Most home improvement lenders fund the whole project anyway. ### Are there rebates or tax credits for a standby generator? Generally no. Standby generators do not qualify for federal residential clean energy credits, which apply to solar, storage and certain efficiency upgrades. Be skeptical of anyone advertising a generator tax credit — if your situation is unusual, ask your tax advisor rather than your contractor. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.

Built in ## What the C100D6C does that the spec table does not show ### Fuel you control Diesel is stored on site, so the set is independent of the gas utility entirely. For a clinic, a restaurant, cold storage or a data closet that independence is usually the whole reason for choosing diesel. ### 1800 rpm Half the engine speed of a residential air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per running hour is why these are specified where the set may run for days rather than minutes. ### PowerCommand control Digital governing, voltage regulation, alarm and status monitoring, with auto-shutdown on fault detection and NFPA 110 Level 1 compliance. ### Fuel that needs managing Diesel degrades, absorbs water and grows biological contamination if it sits. A set that runs rarely needs its fuel maintained, not just topped up — which is part of what a service visit covers.

From $8,545.17 ## Questions about the C100D6C ### How much does a Cummins C100D6C cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The C100D6C equipment price is $41,963.62. Installation on a 100kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C100D6C actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C100D6C? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C100D6C in stock? Availability changes weekly.

Built in ## What the C100D6C does that the spec table does not show ### Fuel you control Diesel is stored on site, so the set is independent of the gas utility entirely. For a clinic, a restaurant, cold storage or a data closet that independence is usually the whole reason for choosing diesel. ### 1800 rpm Half the engine speed of a residential air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per running hour is why these are specified where the set may run for days rather than minutes. ### PowerCommand control Digital governing, voltage regulation, alarm and status monitoring, with auto-shutdown on fault detection and NFPA 110 Level 1 compliance. ### Fuel that needs managing Diesel degrades, absorbs water and grows biological contamination if it sits. A set that runs rarely needs its fuel maintained, not just topped up — which is part of what a service visit covers.

From $8,545.17 ## Questions about the C100D6C ### How much does a Cummins C100D6C cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The C100D6C equipment price is $36,335.68. Installation on a 100kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C100D6C actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C100D6C? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C100D6C in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 100kW configurations Same 100kW output.

Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 125 kW Diesel Liquid-cooled Open — no enclosure The C125D6D is a diesel standby set, supplied open with no enclosure, so it is intended for a generator room, a farm building, or a yard where you provide your own housing. Cummins sells this open-frame range as its Agricultural Standby line, with battle short mode that lets the set override faults that would normally shut it down. It weighs 2586 lb and measures 113 x 40 x 56 inches.

Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so a shelf number would be meaningless. Tell us the application and we will put equipment and installation in writing together. ### What will the C125D6D actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C125D6D? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C125D6D in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 125kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the diesel range.

Supplied and installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins C175D6D 175kW Diesel Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 175kW diesel, Diesel, commercial standby power. Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Quoted per project rather than listed at a published price; supplied and installed against the site's electrical service and fuel arrangement. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Light Commercial Diesel (open) # Cummins C175D6D — 175kW Diesel Generator, Open 175kW liquid-cooled standby generator, Diesel. Clinics, restaurants, data closets, cold storage, multi-tenant retail and small industrial. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 175 kW Diesel Liquid-cooled Open — no enclosure The C175D6D is a diesel standby set, supplied open with no enclosure, so it is intended for a generator room, a farm building, or a yard where you provide your own housing. Cummins sells this open-frame range as its Agricultural Standby line, with battle short mode that lets the set override faults that would normally shut it down. It weighs 3179 lb and measures 113 x 40 x 56 inches. Diesel gives you the highest power density and fuel you can store on site, independent of the gas utility - the usual choice when the load is large, the runtime requirement is fixed, or code requires on-site fuel. Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. The C175D6D is sold by UTS ElectricPros, an [authorized Cummins dealer](https://utselectricpros.com/about) in Dallas–Fort Worth. Buying through an authorized dealer is what keeps the [manufacturer warranty](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) valid — equipment bought from an unauthorized reseller frequently is not covered, and owners tend to find that out at the worst possible moment.

For a clinic, a restaurant, cold storage or a data closet that independence is usually the whole reason for choosing diesel. ### 1800 rpm Half the engine speed of a residential air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per running hour is why these are specified where the set may run for days rather than minutes. ### PowerCommand control Digital governing, voltage regulation, alarm and status monitoring, with auto-shutdown on fault detection and NFPA 110 Level 1 compliance. ### Fuel that needs managing Diesel degrades, absorbs water and grows biological contamination if it sits. A set that runs rarely needs its fuel maintained, not just topped up — which is part of what a service visit covers.

The C175D6D is quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so a shelf number would be meaningless. Tell us the application and we will put equipment and installation in writing together. ### What will the C175D6D actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C175D6D? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C175D6D in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 175kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the diesel range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone. Down to 150kW — less headroom, lower install cost. ### [Cummins C150D6D — Open](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/c150d6d) Liquid-cooled · Diesel Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price.

Installation on a 20kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C20D6 actually run? Light commercial standby for a small office, retail suite, church or IT closet, with diesel stored on site so it runs independent of the gas utility. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C20D6? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C20D6 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 20kW configurations Same 20kW output.

From $1,006.58 ## Questions about the C30D6 ### How much does a Cummins C30D6 cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The C30D6 equipment price is $25,523.80. Installation on a 30kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C30D6 actually run? Light commercial standby for a small office, retail store, restaurant or clinic suite with a mix of lighting, HVAC and refrigeration load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C30D6? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C30D6 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 30kW configurations Same 30kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins C30D6 — Enclosed](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/c30d6-enclosed) Liquid-cooled · Diesel Equipment from $21,282.59 Equipment only.

From $5,021.81 ## Questions about the C50D6 ### How much does a Cummins C50D6 cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The C50D6 equipment price is $28,940.21. Installation on a 50kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C50D6 actually run? Light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office, including HVAC and refrigeration. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C50D6? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C50D6 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 50kW configurations Same 50kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins C50D6 — Enclosed](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/c50d6-enclosed) Liquid-cooled · Diesel Equipment from $24,012.41 Equipment only.

Supplied and installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins C60D6 60kW Diesel Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 60kW diesel, Diesel, light-commercial standby power. Light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office, or an agricultural building. Quoted per project rather than listed at a published price; supplied and installed against the site's electrical service and fuel arrangement. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Light Commercial Diesel (open) # Cummins C60D6 — 60kW Diesel Generator, Open 60kW liquid-cooled standby generator, Diesel. Small commercial buildings and farm operations that cannot afford a dark day. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 60 kW Diesel Liquid-cooled Open — no enclosure The C60D6 is a diesel standby set, supplied open with no enclosure, so it is intended for a generator room, a farm building, or a yard where you provide your own housing. Cummins sells this open-frame range as its Agricultural Standby line, with battle short mode that lets the set override faults that would normally shut it down. It weighs 1700 lb and measures 88 x 34 x 44 inches. Diesel gives you the highest power density and fuel you can store on site, independent of the gas utility - the usual choice when the load is large, the runtime requirement is fixed, or code requires on-site fuel. Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. The C60D6 is sold by UTS ElectricPros, an [authorized Cummins dealer](https://utselectricpros.com/about) in Dallas–Fort Worth. Buying through an authorized dealer is what keeps the [manufacturer warranty](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) valid — equipment bought from an unauthorized reseller frequently is not covered, and owners tend to find that out at the worst possible moment.

Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so a shelf number would be meaningless. Tell us the application and we will put equipment and installation in writing together. ### What will the C60D6 actually run? Light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office, or an agricultural building. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C60D6? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C60D6 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 60kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the diesel range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone. Up to 80kW — room for a second AC or a well pump. ### [Cummins C80D6C — Open](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/c80d6c) Liquid-cooled · Diesel Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price.

Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C80D6C? Yes.

Clinics, restaurants, data closets, cold storage, multi-tenant retail and small industrial. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 80 kW Diesel Liquid-cooled no tank Sound Level 1 enclosure The C80D6C is a diesel standby set in a Sound Level 1 enclosure. It weighs 2500 lb and measures 119 x 40 x 58 inches. This configuration ships without a tank. You will need either a base tank or a day-tank-and-bulk arrangement; we size that during the survey against your required runtime. Diesel gives you the highest power density and fuel you can store on site, independent of the gas utility - the usual choice when the load is large, the runtime requirement is fixed, or code requires on-site fuel.

From $2,292.46 ## Questions about the C80D6C ### How much does a Cummins C80D6C cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The C80D6C equipment price is $35,724.55. Installation on a 80kW diesel unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the C80D6C actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the C80D6C? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the C80D6C in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 80kW configurations Same 80kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins C80D6C — Open](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/c80d6c) Liquid-cooled · Diesel Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price.

Installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS100 100kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 100kW liquid-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, commercial standby power. Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Equipment price $41,139.72, published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout. Sold in 4 purchasable voltage and phase configurations. Equipment ships nationwide and completes online. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Connect Series Liquid-Cooled # Cummins RS100 — 100kW Standby Generator 100kW liquid-cooled standby generator, Natural Gas / LP Vapor. Clinics, restaurants, data closets, cold storage, multi-tenant retail and small industrial. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 100 kW Natural Gas / LP Vapor Liquid-cooled Aluminum The RS100 is liquid-cooled. That matters above roughly 25kW, where an air-cooled engine can no longer shed heat during the long runs a multi-day outage demands. It is a larger machine - 118.7 x 40 x 58.3 inches and 2830 lb - and it needs a proper pad and clearance. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Available in 4 factory configurations: 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 277/480 3Ph, 120/240 3Ph. The correct one depends on your incoming service, not on preference - ordering the wrong voltage is the single most expensive mistake on a job like this, so we confirm it against your meter and panel before anything is ordered.

Built in ## What the RS100 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air. That is the practical difference in a multi-day outage.

From $8,545.17 ## Questions about the RS100 ### How much does a Cummins RS100 cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The RS100 equipment price is $41,139.72. Installation on a 100kW liquid-cooled unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the RS100 actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS100? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS100 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 100kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the liquid-cooled range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone. Down to 80kW — less headroom, lower install cost. ### [Cummins RS80](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs80) Liquid-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor 120/240V single phase $35,467.96 Equipment only.

Built in ## What the RS13A does that the spec table does not show ### Intelligent Load Management The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power each one needs, then restores only the loads it has capacity to run. This is what makes a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. ### Patented Crank-Only exercise mode The weekly exercise cycle can crank the engine and run diagnostics without actually starting it, which reduces wear, fuel use and the noise of the exercise run. ### Remote monitoring, built in Remote monitoring is standard on every unit. From a computer, tablet or phone you can check status, change the exercise schedule and start the generator manually. ### 5-ton air conditioner start Rated to start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load — the load that decides generator sizing in Texas.

From $1,319.15 ## Questions about the RS13A ### How much does a Cummins RS13A cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The RS13A equipment price is $4,419.04. A typical 20kW air-cooled installation in DFW is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000 all in. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS13A goes in the same way on the same kind of pad, so the installation work is similar and the equipment costs less. We put the installation number for your home in writing after a free site survey, because the gas run, the distance to the panel and your city's permit requirements move it more than the generator size does. ### What will the RS13A actually run? Essential circuits plus one central AC in a home up to roughly 1,800 sq ft. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS13A? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS13A in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 13kW configurations Same 13kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS13AE](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs13ae) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Cold weather −40°F Equipment from $4,815.30 Equipment only.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property.

We put the installation number for your home in writing after a free site survey, because the gas run, the distance to the panel and your city's permit requirements move it more than the generator size does. ### What will the RS13AE actually run? Essential circuits plus one central AC in a home up to roughly 1,800 sq ft. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS13AE? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS13AE in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 13kW configurations Same 13kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS13A](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs13a) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Equipment from $4,419.04 Equipment only.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property.

Supplied and installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS150 150kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 150kW liquid-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, commercial standby power. Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Quoted per project rather than listed at a published price; supplied and installed against the site's electrical service and fuel arrangement. Sold in 4 purchasable voltage and phase configurations. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Connect Series Liquid-Cooled # Cummins RS150 — 150kW Standby Generator 150kW liquid-cooled standby generator, Natural Gas / LP Vapor. Clinics, restaurants, data closets, cold storage, multi-tenant retail and small industrial. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 150 kW Natural Gas / LP Vapor Liquid-cooled Aluminum The RS150 is liquid-cooled. That matters above roughly 25kW, where an air-cooled engine can no longer shed heat during the long runs a multi-day outage demands. It is a larger machine - 143 x 40 x 72 inches and 3915 lb - and it needs a proper pad and clearance. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Available in 4 factory configurations: 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 277/480 3Ph, 120/240 3Ph. The correct one depends on your incoming service, not on preference - ordering the wrong voltage is the single most expensive mistake on a job like this, so we confirm it against your meter and panel before anything is ordered. Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. The RS150 is sold by UTS ElectricPros, an [authorized Cummins dealer](https://utselectricpros.com/about) in Dallas–Fort Worth. Buying through an authorized dealer is what keeps the [manufacturer warranty](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) valid — equipment bought from an unauthorized reseller frequently is not covered, and owners tend to find that out at the worst possible moment.

Built in ## What the RS150 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air. That is the practical difference in a multi-day outage.

The RS150 is quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price. Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so a shelf number would be meaningless. Tell us the application and we will put equipment and installation in writing together. ### What will the RS150 actually run? Commercial standby power for facilities with substantial motor and HVAC load. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS150? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS150 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 150kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the liquid-cooled range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone. Down to 125kW — less headroom, lower install cost. ### [Cummins RS125](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs125) Liquid-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Pricing Quoted per project Units at this size are specified against your electrical service, switchgear and fuel arrangement, so they are quoted per project rather than listed at a shelf price.

Refrigeration thaws, the point of sale goes dark, card payments fail, doors and tills stop working and staff get sent home. For a clinic or a restaurant it is not only lost revenue, it is a food-safety and patient-care obligation. ### Why it becomes urgent The same storm and grid events that take out homes take out the block the business sits on, and a commercial outage costs money by the hour from the first minute. ### Who buys it Offices, clinics, restaurants, retail suites and small industrial buildings that cannot close for a day.

Built in ## What the RS17A does that the spec table does not show ### Intelligent Load Management The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power each one needs, then restores only the loads it has capacity to run. This is what makes a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. ### Patented Crank-Only exercise mode The weekly exercise cycle can crank the engine and run diagnostics without actually starting it, which reduces wear, fuel use and the noise of the exercise run. ### Remote monitoring, built in Remote monitoring is standard on every unit. From a computer, tablet or phone you can check status, change the exercise schedule and start the generator manually. ### 5-ton air conditioner start Rated to start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load — the load that decides generator sizing in Texas.

From $1,319.15 ## Questions about the RS17A ### How much does a Cummins RS17A cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The RS17A equipment price is $5,326.86. A typical 20kW air-cooled installation in DFW is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000 all in. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS17A goes in the same way on the same kind of pad, so the installation work is similar and the equipment costs less. We put the installation number for your home in writing after a free site survey, because the gas run, the distance to the panel and your city's permit requirements move it more than the generator size does. ### What will the RS17A actually run? Most of a 2,000-2,500 sq ft home with load management on the larger AC. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS17A? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS17A in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 17kW configurations Same 17kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS17AE](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs17ae) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Cold weather −40°F Equipment from $5,576.63 Equipment only.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property.

Installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS17AE 17kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 17kW air-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, residential standby power. Most of a 2,000-2,500 sq ft home with load management on the larger AC. Equipment price $5,576.63, published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout.

The typical three-bedroom DFW home with a single AC system. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 17 kW Natural Gas / LP Vapor Air-cooled Extreme cold −40°F Aluminum The RS17AE is an air-cooled unit in an aluminum enclosure, which is the right build for a residential yard: no radiator loop to service, a smaller pad, and a footprint of 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inches at 531 lb. The E suffix is the extreme cold weather package, rated to -40F. In North Texas that is not about surviving a normal winter; it is about the unit actually starting during an event like February 2021, when the outages and the cold arrived together. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service.

Built in ## What the RS17AE does that the spec table does not show ### Intelligent Load Management The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power each one needs, then restores only the loads it has capacity to run. This is what makes a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. ### Patented Crank-Only exercise mode The weekly exercise cycle can crank the engine and run diagnostics without actually starting it, which reduces wear, fuel use and the noise of the exercise run. ### Remote monitoring, built in Remote monitoring is standard on every unit. From a computer, tablet or phone you can check status, change the exercise schedule and start the generator manually. ### 5-ton air conditioner start Rated to start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load — the load that decides generator sizing in Texas.

Built in ## What the RS20A does that the spec table does not show ### Intelligent Load Management The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power each one needs, then restores only the loads it has capacity to run. This is what makes a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. ### Patented Crank-Only exercise mode The weekly exercise cycle can crank the engine and run diagnostics without actually starting it, which reduces wear, fuel use and the noise of the exercise run. ### Remote monitoring, built in Remote monitoring is standard on every unit. From a computer, tablet or phone you can check status, change the exercise schedule and start the generator manually. ### 5-ton air conditioner start Rated to start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load — the load that decides generator sizing in Texas.

From $1,319.15 ## Questions about the RS20A ### How much does a Cummins RS20A cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The RS20A equipment price is $5,925.25. Installed in DFW, a typical 20kW job is estimated at $13,500 - $17,000 all in. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The spread comes from four things: how far the pad sits from your gas meter, whether the gas line carries the added load or has to be upsized, the run from the generator to your electrical panel, and what your city charges and requires for permits and inspection. We put the installation number in writing after a free site survey. ### What will the RS20A actually run? Whole-house coverage for a typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems, using load management. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS20A? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS20A in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 20kW configurations Same 20kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS20AE](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs20ae) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Cold weather −40°F Equipment from $6,300.85 Equipment only.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property.

Transfer switch included. Installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS20AC 20kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 20kW air-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, residential standby power. Whole-house coverage for a typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems, using load management. Equipment price $6,868.48, published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout. Ships with a transfer switch. Equipment ships nationwide and completes online. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Connect Series Air-Cooled # Cummins RS20AC — 20kW Standby Generator 20kW air-cooled standby generator, Natural Gas / LP Vapor. The volume seller. Two-story suburban homes across Plano, Frisco, McKinney and Southlake. On natural gas this unit produces 18kW, not 20kW. The headline rating is the propane figure. Almost every DFW home runs natural gas, so size against 18kW unless you are on a propane tank. Most sellers publish only the larger number. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 18 kW natural gas · 20 kW LP Natural Gas / LP Vapor Air-cooled Transfer switch included Aluminum The RS20AC is an air-cooled unit in an aluminum enclosure, which is the right build for a residential yard: no radiator loop to service, a smaller pad, and a footprint of 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inches at 596 lb. This is the combo package: it ships with a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch. Buying the switch with the generator is usually the cheaper path, and it removes the most common cause of a delayed install - the wrong switch showing up on site. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Equipment price $6,868.48 Monthly payments with Affirm or Klarna at checkout, subject to approval.

Transfer switch included. Installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS20ACE 20kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 20kW air-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, residential standby power. Whole-house coverage for a typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems, using load management. Equipment price $7,131.91, published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout. Ships with a transfer switch. Equipment ships nationwide and completes online. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Connect Series Air-Cooled # Cummins RS20ACE — 20kW Standby Generator 20kW air-cooled standby generator, Natural Gas / LP Vapor. The volume seller. Two-story suburban homes across Plano, Frisco, McKinney and Southlake. On natural gas this unit produces 18kW, not 20kW. The headline rating is the propane figure. Almost every DFW home runs natural gas, so size against 18kW unless you are on a propane tank. Most sellers publish only the larger number. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 18 kW natural gas · 20 kW LP Natural Gas / LP Vapor Air-cooled Transfer switch included Extreme cold −40°F Aluminum The RS20ACE is an air-cooled unit in an aluminum enclosure, which is the right build for a residential yard: no radiator loop to service, a smaller pad, and a footprint of 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inches at 596 lb. This is the combo package: it ships with a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch. Buying the switch with the generator is usually the cheaper path, and it removes the most common cause of a delayed install - the wrong switch showing up on site. The E suffix is the extreme cold weather package, rated to -40F. In North Texas that is not about surviving a normal winter; it is about the unit actually starting during an event like February 2021, when the outages and the cold arrived together. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Equipment price $7,131.91 Monthly payments with Affirm or Klarna at checkout, subject to approval.

Built in ## What the RS20ACE does that the spec table does not show ### Intelligent Load Management The generator can control up to 4 loads and continuously monitors how much power each one needs, then restores only the loads it has capacity to run. This is what makes a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. ### Patented Crank-Only exercise mode The weekly exercise cycle can crank the engine and run diagnostics without actually starting it, which reduces wear, fuel use and the noise of the exercise run. ### Remote monitoring, built in Remote monitoring is standard on every unit. From a computer, tablet or phone you can check status, change the exercise schedule and start the generator manually. ### 5-ton air conditioner start Rated to start and run a 5-ton A/C under full pre-load — the load that decides generator sizing in Texas.

[Download it from Cummins →](https://mart.cummins.com/imagelibrary/data/assetfiles/0058055.pdf) ## Questions about the RS20ACE ### How much does a Cummins RS20ACE cost installed in Dallas-Fort Worth? The RS20ACE equipment price is $7,131.91. Installed in DFW, a typical 20kW job is estimated at $13,500 - $17,000 all in. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The spread comes from four things: how far the pad sits from your gas meter, whether the gas line carries the added load or has to be upsized, the run from the generator to your electrical panel, and what your city charges and requires for permits and inspection. We put the installation number in writing after a free site survey. ### What will the RS20ACE actually run? Whole-house coverage for a typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems, using load management. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Does the RS20ACE include a transfer switch? Yes. This is the combo configuration and it ships with a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch. Service-entrance rated means it can serve as your main disconnect, which often simplifies the install and can reduce what the electrician has to rework at the panel. ### Is the RS20ACE in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 20kW configurations Same 20kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS20A](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs20a) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Equipment from $5,925.25 Equipment only.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property. The RS20ACE is installed across the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex by our own licensed crews — [the cities we serve](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas), [what installation involves](https://utselectricpros.com/installation), and [a free on-site survey](https://utselectricpros.com/quote) before any number is put in writing. ## Before you buy the RS20ACE The questions that decide whether this is the right machine, answered properly rather than in a sentence on a product page. - [Will 20kW actually cover my house?](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) Work it out against your own square footage, air conditioning and well pump before you buy. - [Is 20kW the right one of the three?](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/13kw-vs-17kw-vs-20kw) The air-cooled range is 13kW, 17kW and 20kW. What separates them, and what each step costs. - [Will my gas line carry it?](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator) Real BTU demand, the inlet pressure it needs under load, and when the meter has to be upsized. - [What can my city require?](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas) Less than it used to, and a third party can now do the inspection. - [Will it run my air conditioner?](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/will-a-generator-run-my-air-conditioner) Two compressors starting on a Texas afternoon is the load that decides the answer.

Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS20AE? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS20AE in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Same size, different build ## Other 20kW configurations Same 20kW output. What changes is the enclosure, the transfer switch and whether a cold-weather package is fitted — not the power. ### [Cummins RS20A](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs20a) Air-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor Equipment from $5,925.25 Equipment only.

Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 25 kW Natural Gas / LP Vapor Liquid-cooled Aluminum The RS25 is liquid-cooled. That matters above roughly 25kW, where an air-cooled engine can no longer shed heat during the long runs a multi-day outage demands. It is a larger machine - 72 x 34 x 45.5 inches and 1109 lb - and it needs a proper pad and clearance. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Available in 3 factory configurations: 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 120/240 3Ph.

Built in ## What the RS25 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air. That is the practical difference in a multi-day outage.

Installation on a 25kW liquid-cooled unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the RS25 actually run? True whole-house coverage for a 4,000-6,000 sq ft home with multiple AC systems, no load shedding required. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS25? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews.

Built in ## What the RS30 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air. That is the practical difference in a multi-day outage.

Installation on a 30kW liquid-cooled unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the RS30 actually run? True whole-house coverage for a 4,000-6,000 sq ft home with multiple AC systems, no load shedding required. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS30? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS30 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 30kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the liquid-cooled range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone.

In Texas that is not an inconvenience for long: in February it is heat and frozen pipes, in August it is air conditioning, and a house without either becomes uninhabitable within hours rather than days. ### Why it becomes urgent Winter storms and the spring severe-weather season take down distribution lines across the Metroplex every year, and summer peak demand on the ERCOT grid has repeatedly produced conservation appeals. ### Who buys it Homeowners who cannot simply leave — small children, someone on medical equipment, a well pump, a home office, or livestock on the property.

Built in ## What the RS40 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air. That is the practical difference in a multi-day outage.

Installation on a 40kW liquid-cooled unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the RS40 actually run? Estate homes, or light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS40? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS40 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 40kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the liquid-cooled range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone. Down to 36kW — less headroom, lower install cost. ### [Cummins RS36](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs36) Liquid-cooled · Natural Gas / LP Vapor 120/240V single phase $19,356.52 Equipment only.

Installed across DFW by licensed electricians. **Overview:** Cummins RS50 50kW Natural Gas / LP Standby Generator from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 50kW liquid-cooled, Natural Gas / LP Vapor, light-commercial standby power. Estate homes, or light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office. Equipment price $23,364.26, published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout. Sold in 4 purchasable voltage and phase configurations. Equipment ships nationwide and completes online. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only, performed by the company's own licensed electricians under TECL #40628, and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- Connect Series Liquid-Cooled # Cummins RS50 — 50kW Standby Generator 50kW liquid-cooled standby generator, Natural Gas / LP Vapor. Estate properties and small commercial buildings that cannot afford a dark day. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 50 kW Natural Gas / LP Vapor Liquid-cooled Aluminum The RS50 is liquid-cooled. That matters above roughly 25kW, where an air-cooled engine can no longer shed heat during the long runs a multi-day outage demands. It is a larger machine - 118.7 x 40 x 58.3 inches and 2403 lb - and it needs a proper pad and clearance. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service. Available in 4 factory configurations: 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 277/480 3Ph, 120/240 3Ph. The correct one depends on your incoming service, not on preference - ordering the wrong voltage is the single most expensive mistake on a job like this, so we confirm it against your meter and panel before anything is ordered.

It is a larger machine - 118.7 x 40 x 58.3 inches and 2634 lb - and it needs a proper pad and clearance. It runs on natural gas or LP vapor. On natural gas there is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility main holds pressure, which is why it is the default choice on almost every DFW home that already has gas service.

Built in ## What the RS60 does that the spec table does not show ### 1800 rpm, not 3600 Liquid-cooled sets turn at half the speed of an air-cooled unit. Fewer revolutions per hour of running means less wear, and it is a large part of why these are quieter despite being far more powerful. ### Sound Level 2 enclosure From 60 dB(A) at 23 feet on the smaller sets. A 30kW liquid-cooled unit is quieter than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### PowerCommand control Electronic governing and voltage regulation, with alarm and status monitoring. Regulation is tighter than the air-cooled range at ±1.0%. ### Continuous rated output A radiator loop means it can hold rated output indefinitely rather than shedding heat into the air.

Installation on a 60kW liquid-cooled unit varies too widely to band honestly - the pad, the fuel supply, the switchgear and the electrical service are all engineered to the specific site. We quote it in writing after a site survey, and we will tell you the drivers before we quote so you can see where the money goes. ### What will the RS60 actually run? Estate homes, or light commercial loads such as a small clinic, restaurant, retail suite or office. Final confirmation comes from a load calculation against your actual panel, which we do at the survey. ### Do I need a transfer switch with the RS60? Yes. A standby generator cannot be code-compliantly connected without an automatic transfer switch - it is what keeps your generator from backfeeding the utility line and endangering line crews. The switch is sized to your electrical service, not to the generator, so we confirm your service size at the survey before specifying it. ### Is the RS60 in stock? Availability changes weekly. A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit and locks the equipment price for 90 days, which is the practical way to hold one while the survey and permit work happen. If we cannot source it in a reasonable window, you get the deposit back. Step up or down ## Is 60kW the right size? The next capacity either side in the liquid-cooled range. If you are not sure which way to go, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) works it out against your own house rather than its square footage alone.

Real prices and what each one covers. **Overview:** Cummins makes three air-cooled home standby capacities: the RS13A at 13kW ($4,419.04 equipment at UTS ElectricPros), the RS17A at 17kW ($5,326.86) and the RS20A ($5,925.25), rated 20kW on LP and 18kW on natural gas. The RS13A and RS17A carry the same rating on both fuels. As a starting rule of thumb before a load calculation: the 13kW suits essential circuits plus one central air conditioner, the 17kW most single-AC homes with load management on the larger system, and the 20kW homes with two air conditioning systems using load management. In Texas the deciding load is air conditioning startup rather than floor area, because a compressor draws several times its running current for the first moments of a start. All three run on natural gas or LP vapor, share the same Cummins QSJ999G engine, are published at 65 dB(A) at 23 feet, and carry a 5 year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. A typical installed 20kW system is an estimated $13,500 to $17,000. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The step from 13kW to 17kW is $907.82 of equipment and the step from 17kW to 20kW is $598.39. --- Choosing a size # 13kW, 17kW or 20kW? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Pick by air conditioning, not floor area. The RS13A (13kW, $4,419.04) starts one central AC plus essential circuits; the RS17A (17kW, $5,326.86) covers most single-AC homes; the RS20A ($5,925.25) is for two AC systems with load management, and is rated 18kW on natural gas and 20kW on LP. ## The short answer | Model | Output | What it covers | Equipment | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13kW | Essential circuits plus one central AC in a home up to roughly 1,800 sq ft. | $4,419.04 | | RS17A | 17kW | Most of a 2,000-2,500 sq ft home with load management on the larger AC. | $5,326.86 | | RS20A | 20kW | Whole-house coverage for a typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft DFW home with two AC systems, using load management. | $5,925.25 | Equipment only, at the Cummins suggested retail price. Installation is quoted separately after a free survey. ## Square footage is the wrong unit Most online sizing charts are indexed on floor area. In Texas the load that decides which of these three you need is air conditioning, specifically the moment a compressor starts. A compressor draws several times its running current for the first fraction of a second, and a generator has to absorb that surge without the voltage sagging far enough to stall it. Two houses of identical size can land on different models: one with a single four-ton system and one with two systems and a pool pump are different loads. Read [what actually happens when a generator starts an air conditioner](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/will-a-generator-run-my-air-conditioner) before you settle on a number, and the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) will give you a range in a couple of minutes. ## What is identical across all three All three are the same Cummins QSJ999G engine in the same aluminum enclosure, published at the same 65 dB(A) at 23 feet, running on either natural gas or LP vapor, listed to UL 2200 and installable at 18 inches from the building under NFPA 37. All three carry the same 5 year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. The one difference besides capacity is fuel: the RS13A and RS17A are rated the same on natural gas and LP, while the RS20A is 18kW on natural gas and 20kW on LP. Going up a size buys more simultaneous load, not a different machine. ## What the steps cost $907.82 of equipment separates the RS13A from the RS17A, and $598.39 separates the RS17A from the RS20A. Installation barely moves between them — all three sit on a similar pad with a similar electrical tie-in, and what actually drives an installed price is the gas line, the distance from your meter, the run to your panel and your city's permit. If you expect to add load later, such as a pool pump or a second AC system, size for it now: the equipment step is cheaper than replacing the generator. ## When a bigger unit is the wrong answer If the reason you are being pushed up a size is two compressors starting together, the other fix is to stop them doing that. A load management module holds one system off for the seconds the other needs to start. We set out both paths, with what each costs, in [load management or a bigger generator](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/load-management-vs-bigger-generator), including the cases where the bigger machine is the better buy. ## Above 20kW These three are the air-cooled range and it stops at 20kW. Above that the line becomes liquid-cooled, starting at 25kW: a different engine turning at 1800 rpm rather than 3600, with a different footprint, sound level and service interval. If your load calculation lands past 20kW, the [full Cummins lineup, 13kW to 200kW](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-standby-generator-models) is the place to look, and [every liquid-cooled model, 25kW to 150kW](https://utselectricpros.com/generators#liquid-cooled) is priced on the site. ## Questions ### Is 20kW enough for a 3,000 square foot house? Often, with load management that stops two compressors starting at the same moment, but floor area is not what decides it. Note the RS20A is rated 18kW on natural gas, the fuel most DFW homes use. Square footage is the wrong unit to decide on — a 3,000 sq ft home with two 5-ton systems and a well pump is a different problem from a 3,000 sq ft home with one 4-ton system. The load calculation at the survey settles it. ### What is the real difference between 13kW, 17kW and 20kW? How much air conditioning you can start, and how much load you can run at once. As a rule of thumb before a load calculation, the 13kW suits essential circuits plus one central AC, the 17kW most single-AC homes, and the 20kW two AC systems with load management. On natural gas the RS20A is rated 18kW, against 20kW on LP. Mechanically they are the same machine — same Cummins QSJ999G engine, same 65 dB(A) published sound level, same enclosure and the same 5 year / 2,000 hour warranty. ### Is it worth stepping up a size just in case? Sometimes. The equipment steps are $907.82 of equipment from 13kW to 17kW and $598.39 from 17kW to 20kW. But a bigger generator is not always the right answer to a simultaneity problem — if two compressors starting together is what pushes you up a size, a load management module that keeps them from starting together may let the smaller unit do the job. We compare the two paths in a separate guide. ### Do the bigger units cost more to install? Not much, in this range. All three are air-cooled units on a similar pad with a similar electrical tie-in. What moves an installed price is the gas line, the distance from the meter, the run to your panel and your city's permit, not which of these three sits on the pad. Our published installed estimates are $11,000 to $14,000 for 13kW, $12,500 to $15,500 for 17kW and $13,500 to $17,000 for 20kW. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. ### Should I get the model with the transfer switch included? If your service size suits it, it is usually the cleaner buy. The RS20AC ships with a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch at $6,868.48, against $5,925.25 for the RS20A without one. Service-entrance rated means the switch can serve as your main disconnect, which often simplifies the install. The switch is sized to your electrical service rather than to the generator, so we confirm your service at the survey before specifying it. ## We will size it against your actual panel The survey is free and it produces a load calculation, not a guess from floor area. If the answer is the smaller unit, that is what we will tell you. ### Rather just talk to someone? Leave a number and we will call you. No sales script, no obligation. Name Phone When suits you?

The one exception, and what it means in DFW. **Overview:** Texas Local Government Code section 229.102 states that a municipality may not adopt or enforce an ordinance, rule or other measure regulating the installation or inspection of a residential energy backup system providing no more than 50 kilowatts or storing no more than 100 kilowatt hours. It was added by Senate Bill 1252 and took effect on 1 September 2025. In the Cummins home standby range, the 13kW to 20kW air-cooled units and the 25kW to 50kW liquid-cooled units are inside that ceiling; the 60kW to 150kW liquid-cooled units are not. The statute does not limit a municipally owned utility from regulating within its own service area, which in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex means Denton, served by Denton Municipal Electric, and Garland, where city-owned Garland Power & Light serves most of the city. --- Texas law # What your city can and cannot require on a generator install By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 For a home generator of 50kW or less, a Texas city may not regulate the installation or inspection at all: Texas Local Government Code § 229.102, in force since 1 September 2025, bars it. The exception is a city that owns its electric utility — in our service area, Denton and Garland — which keeps its authority inside that utility’s territory. ## The rule Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 “A municipality may not adopt or enforce an ordinance, rule, or other measure that would regulate the installation or inspection of a residential energy backup system.” A residential energy backup system is defined as one “a backup energy system at a residential property capable of providing no more than 50 kilowatts of electricity to the residence, or with a storage capacity of no more than 100 kilowatt hours.” Of the Cummins home standby range we sell, the air-cooled RS13A to RS20A (13kW to 20kW) and the liquid-cooled RS25, RS30, RS36, RS40 and RS50 are at or under the 50kW ceiling. The liquid-cooled RS60 to RS150 (60kW to 150kW) are above it, so the statute does not cover them and the city keeps its full authority over those installs. It was added by Senate Bill 1252 of the 89th Legislature and took effect on 1 September 2025. ## The exception, and where it applies: Denton and Garland “This section does not limit the authority of a municipally owned utility to regulate the installation or inspection of a residential energy backup system within the utility's service area.” A city that owns its electric utility keeps its authority inside that utility's territory. In our service area that is two cities: [Denton](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/denton-generator-installation) and [Garland](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/garland-generator-installation) . Denton is served by Denton Municipal Electric, and if you are a DME customer, Denton's own generator requirements still apply to you, including its published permit and its three-inspection sequence. Garland Power & Light, owned by the City of Garland, serves most but not all of Garland, so the city keeps its authority at GP&L addresses and the state limit applies everywhere else in the city. Your electric bill says which one you have. ## What this does not change This is a limit on what a city may impose , not permission to skip the process. Nothing here removes: - The permit itself. An unpermitted generator is the problem that surfaces at closing when you sell. - The inspection that releases gas and electric service. In Mansfield, for example, the city will not issue the electric or gas service release until the inspection has passed. - The National Electrical Code, the fuel gas code, and the manufacturer's listed clearances — which are what really decide where a generator can sit. - Your HOA's separate and much narrower powers, covered in [can my HOA stop me installing a generator](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/hoa-generator-rules-texas). ## Since September 2025, the city need not be the one who inspects A second statute, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 (SB 1202), took effect on 1 September 2025. It covers a home backup power installation , which it defines as: “An electric generating facility, an energy storage facility, a standby system, and any associated infrastructure and equipment intended to provide electrical power to a one- or two-family dwelling that is connected at 600 volts or less.” A home standby generator at a one- or two-family house is inside that definition, at any size. The statute lets an authorized third party do the plan review and the inspection instead of the city. Besides the persons Section 247.002 already authorizes, it names a licensed electrical inspector and a licensed master electrician (Occupations Code §§ 1305.002 and 1305.153): “An authorized third party may review a development document required to install a home backup power installation without having to submit the document to the authority for review, and may conduct the development inspection without having to request the inspection from the authority.” And once the city is notified, it is on a clock: “A regulatory authority shall issue each approval, permit, or certification applicable to a review of a development document or development inspection conducted under this section not later than the third business day after the date the authority receives the notice.” The three-business-day deadline comes from the statute, so a city that publishes it is restating the law. There are two fee rules, and they cover different things. For the review and inspection the third party performed, Texas Local Government Code § 247.003, as amended by S.B. 1202: “A regulatory authority may not impose a fee related to the review of a development document or the inspection of an improvement conducted under this chapter.” For issuing the permit itself, the bar applies only where the authority has not published a fee schedule: “A regulatory authority that has not posted or provided a fee schedule as required by Subsection (d) may not charge a fee for issuance of an approval, permit, or certification for a home backup power installation under this section.” A city with a posted schedule may still charge to issue the permit. ## What to compare between contractors instead For a home generator at or under 50kW outside Denton and Garland, the install is governed by the adopted codes and the manufacturer's listing, not by city-specific rules. So compare who holds the TECL license, whether the electricians are employed or subcontracted, how the gas line and transfer switch are handled, and who services the unit afterward. We are electricians, not attorneys, and this is not legal advice. Read the statute at [Texas Local Government Code § 229.102](https://codes.findlaw.com/tx/local-government-code/loc-gov-t-sect-229-102/). If your city tells you otherwise on a specific job, we follow the city — arguing with an inspector has never got a generator commissioned faster. ## Questions ### Do I still need a permit for a home generator in Texas? Plan on one. The statute limits what a city may impose on the installation and inspection of a system at or under 50kW; it does not abolish the permit process, and a city-owned utility keeps its authority in its own territory. An unpermitted generator also causes problems when you sell the house. We pull the permit on every job. ### What does the 50 kilowatt threshold mean for me? A backup energy system at a residential property capable of providing no more than 50 kilowatts of electricity to the residence, or with a storage capacity of no more than 100 kilowatt hours. Of the Cummins home standby range we sell, the air-cooled RS13A to RS20A (13kW to 20kW) and the liquid-cooled RS25, RS30, RS36, RS40 and RS50 are at or under the 50kW ceiling. The liquid-cooled RS60 to RS150 (60kW to 150kW) are above it, so the statute does not cover them and the city keeps its full authority over those installs. ### Which DFW cities are the exception? Denton and Garland. The statute says it "this section does not limit the authority of a municipally owned utility to regulate the installation or inspection of a residential energy backup system within the utility's service area." Denton Municipal Electric and Garland Power & Light are both city-owned, so each city keeps its authority where its own utility serves. Garland Power & Light serves most of Garland but not all of it, so at a Garland address served by another utility the state limit applies. ### My city's website still lists setback and screening requirements. Which is right? Check the date on the handout: the statute took effect on 1 September 2025, and guidance written before then may not reflect it. We design to the manufacturer's listed clearances and the adopted electrical and fuel gas codes either way, and where a city inspector asks for something on a specific job, we follow the city. ### So what actually determines where my generator goes? The manufacturer's listed clearances, the fuel gas code, the electrical code, the distance to the gas meter and the panel, and room to service the unit. Those apply whatever any ordinance says, and they are what the site survey measures. ## We pull the permit either way Free on-site survey, written scope, and the permit and inspection handled by the people who did the work.

Below roughly 0°F an extreme cold weather kit is recommended; Cummins part A054B984. The E-suffix models — RS13AE, RS17AE, RS20ACE, RS20AE — already include that package, so the kit is only needed on the models without the E. In a Texas freeze the three things that actually fail are battery cranking power, which drops as temperature falls; propane vaporization, because an LP tank has to boil liquid into vapor fast enough to feed the engine and does that more slowly when it is cold and low on liquid; and oil viscosity at start. The official low at DFW Airport on 16 February 2021 was -2°F (National Weather Service), so the 0°F kit threshold has been crossed here. Natural gas has no tank to chill, but it depends on the utility keeping pressure in the main: in February 2021 Atmos Energy lost service to homes in parts of Grand Prairie for days during record demand. --- Texas weather # Cold-weather generator operation By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Cummins air-cooled standby generators are rated to run from -40°F, so in a Texas freeze its temperature rating is not the limit. What needs attention is the battery, propane vaporization or gas pressure, and below 0°F a unit without the cold weather kit (Cummins part A054B984, factory-fitted on the E models). ## The machine is rated for far worse than Texas gets Operating range: -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C) The official low at DFW Airport during the February 2021 freeze was -2°F on 16 February ([National Weather Service, DFW temperature extremes](https://www.weather.gov/fwd/dgr8mxmn)), well inside that range. The three things below are what need attention. ## 1. The battery A lead-acid battery delivers less cranking current as it gets colder, and a standby generator asks for all of it at once. A battery that has been quietly declining through a Texas summer can start the unit at 70°F during its weekly exercise and then fail to turn the engine over at 15°F. Battery checks and replacement have their own page: [generator battery maintenance](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-battery-maintenance). ## 2. Propane vaporization Natural gas avoids this problem because there is no tank to chill. It is not immune to a freeze, though: it depends on the utility keeping pressure in the main, and that can fail when demand peaks. During Winter Storm Uri in February 2021, Atmos Energy lost service to homes in parts of Grand Prairie, citing extraordinarily high demand, and residents [reported going three days without gas](https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/atmos-energy-cuts-service-in-grand-prairie-neighborhood-amid-calls-for-people-to-conserve-energy/2555723/). A generator on low gas pressure may not start or carry its load. Propane stored on site does not depend on the pipeline, which is its real advantage in a freeze, as long as the tank can keep up. Propane is different, because an LP tank has to do work a gas meter does not. The fuel is stored as liquid and has to boil into vapor before the engine can burn it. That boiling happens at the wetted surface inside the tank, and two things reduce it at exactly the wrong moment: cold slows the rate, and a tank low on liquid has less wetted surface to boil from. A tank that has run a generator for two days in a freeze is both colder and emptier than when it started. The practical answers are a tank sized with margin rather than to the minimum, and filling it before a freeze rather than after one starts. What "with margin" means in gallons, and the continuous vaporization rate to ask your supplier for, are set out in [propane tank sizing for a standby generator](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/propane-tank-sizing-for-a-standby-generator). If you have not chosen a fuel yet, this is one of the real differences between them: [natural gas, propane or diesel](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel). ## 3. The cold weather package For installations that go below 0°F. Not needed on the AE and ACE models, which already include it. The kit is Cummins part A054B984 , and it can be fitted at installation or retrofitted later. The E-suffix models already include it, which makes the decision a straight price comparison rather than a specification question: | Without the package | With it included | Difference | | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A — $4,419.04 | RS13AE — $4,815.30 | $396.26 | | RS17A — $5,326.86 | RS17AE — $5,576.63 | $249.77 | | RS20AC — $6,868.48 | RS20ACE — $7,131.91 | $263.43 | | RS20A — $5,925.25 | RS20AE — $6,300.85 | $375.60 | Equipment prices at the Cummins suggested retail price. The E models are the same generator with the package fitted at the factory. ## What to do before a freeze is forecast - Check the battery holds charge. Cold is when a marginal one fails. - Fill the propane tank, do not top it up. More liquid means more wetted surface and more vaporization, as well as more runtime. - Run it under load once. A crank-only exercise proves the starter. It does not prove the machine will carry the house. - Clear the intake and exhaust. Snow or ice drifted against the enclosure can block airflow. The first three are part of a service visit, so book one before winter: [maintenance and service plans](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). If the unit has [remote monitoring](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-remote-monitoring) fitted, a failed exercise is reported to you, and to your dealer if you have chosen to route alerts to one. ## Questions ### Will a standby generator work in a Texas ice storm? Yes. Cummins rates these units to operate from -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C). What needs attention is three things around the generator: the battery, which loses cranking power as it gets colder; the fuel, whether that is propane vaporization or natural gas pressure in the main; and, below about 0°F, whether a cold weather kit is fitted. ### Do I need a cold weather kit in Dallas-Fort Worth? Cummins recommends it for installations that go below 0°F. DFW does not get there most winters, but the official low at DFW Airport on 16 February 2021 was -2°F (National Weather Service). The E-suffix models (RS13AE, RS17AE, RS20ACE, RS20AE) already include the package. On the models without it, the kit is Cummins part A054B984 and it can be fitted at installation or later. ### Why do propane generators struggle in a freeze, and is natural gas safe from that? Because a propane tank has to do work that a gas meter does not. LP arrives as liquid and has to boil into vapor before the engine can burn it, and that boiling happens at the wetted surface inside the tank. Cold slows it, and a tank that is low on liquid has less wetted surface to boil from, so the two problems compound exactly when you need the machine most. Natural gas has no tank to chill, so it avoids that particular problem, but it has a different one: it depends on the utility keeping pressure in the main. In February 2021, during record demand, Atmos Energy lost service to homes in parts of Grand Prairie, and some residents were without gas for days. A propane tank on site does not depend on the pipeline at all, which is the trade-off between the two. ### What should I do before a freeze is forecast? Check the battery is holding charge, because cold is when a marginal battery fails to crank. If you are on propane, get the tank filled: a fuller tank lasts longer and vaporizes better. And run the generator once under load so a problem shows up before the outage does. ### Does cold change how much fuel the generator uses? The generator itself burns what its load demands, and that does go up in a freeze because the house is working harder. A long outage multiplies that consumption, which makes it a runtime and fuel-supply question: on propane, how many days the tank lasts; on natural gas, whether the utility holds pressure.

CoServ says standby generators shall not export power or operate in parallel with its system and shall use an open transition transfer switch, and its FAQ answers yes to whether it requires an automatic transfer switch. Its manual requires a break-before-make transition for backup-only generation. Installations must meet local, NESC and NEC requirements, and CoServ's FAQ says an electrician is required. CoServ's Certified Installer Program is a list of solar installers; for generators, CoServ's FAQ says it does not recommend specific electricians or generators, and that most cities in its territory require a permit. CoServ serves addresses in Plano, Frisco, Fort Worth, McKinney, Allen, Flower Mound, Prosper, Coppell, Celina, Denton, Argyle, alongside other utilities in most of them. --- Utility rules # CoServ standby generator requirements By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published October 9, 2026 CoServ Electric asks for three things: an application filed before installation, an open-transition automatic transfer switch, and a generator that never exports power to its lines. It does not certify or recommend generator installers. ## 1. Apply before installation “Fill out the Application for Operation of Customer-Owned Generation found on Page 16 in the DG Manual.” The application is Exhibit A of CoServ’s [Distributed Generation Procedures & Guidelines Manual](https://coserv.canto.com/direct/document/2acrcd780t54nam7r0aj175238/iV0IESw5JXCR6HlVqwhdUl7lrZY/original?content-type=application%2Fpdf&name=Distributed_Generation_Manual.pdf) (February 2026). The form lists “Standby or Portable Generator (please specify fuel type)” among the technologies it covers, and the manual says “A separate application must be submitted for each installation.” CoServ’s requirements page says to send it to DG@coserv.com; the form’s own contact section lists solar@coserv.com. Members connecting a standby generator “agree to the terms of the Tariff for Electric Service and DG Manual,” and CoServ says it may refuse or disconnect an interconnection that causes safety, reliability or power quality issues, or breaches the meter seal. ## 2. An open-transition automatic transfer switch “Members should understand that standby generators shall not export power (or operate parallel) to CoServ Electric’s distribution system and shall use an open transition transfer switch.” CoServ’s FAQ answers “Does CoServ require an automatic transfer switch?” with “Yes.” Its manual puts the same rule in electrical terms: “When the DG is used for backup power only, a break before make transition is required to avoid back feed.” Open transition and break-before-make mean the same thing: the switch opens the utility connection before it closes the generator connection. The Cummins switches we sell are listed with prices on [Cummins transfer switches](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches), and what a service-entrance rating changes is in [service-entrance transfer switches](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/service-entrance-transfer-switches). CoServ also has a disconnect rule for distributed generation generally: coServ requires a visible, lockable, labeled AC disconnect with a visible break and an external handle, on an exterior wall within 10 feet of the CoServ meter (a placard is required at the meter if it is farther), and lockable open with a cooperative lock. For backup-only generation, its manual says a visible load-break disconnect switch is “preferred but not required pending evaluation of the member’s proposed configuration and equipment selection.” ## 3. No export, ever A standby generator in CoServ territory runs the house only while it is cut off from the CoServ system. The manual: members with backup-only generation “shall not operate their DG facilities at any time unless disconnected from the Cooperative system,” and CoServ may require an interlocking switch to make sure of it. CoServ’s generator safety page gives the reason: power fed back through a transformer can be stepped up to 14,000 volts on the line a crew is working on. ## Who can install it CoServ’s FAQ says an electrician is required and “should follow all applicable CoServ policies and the current National Electric Code,” and that a plumber is generally needed on natural gas or propane. It answers “Does CoServ recommend specific electricians?” with “No.” The CoServ [Certified Installer Program](https://www.coserv.com/energy-solutions/distributed-energy/solar/certified-installer-program/) is a list of solar installers CoServ has vetted on its solar policies. It is not a generator program. When you choose a generator installer in CoServ territory, check the Texas electrical contractor license and the manufacturer’s dealer locator instead; the questions to ask are in [how to choose a generator installer](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/how-to-choose-a-generator-installer). UTS ElectricPros holds TECL #40628 and installs Cummins generators through its own crews. ## Permits are separate CoServ: “Permits are required by most cities or towns within CoServ’s service territory.” The CoServ application does not replace the city permit, and the city permit does not replace the CoServ application. CoServ serves addresses in [Plano](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/plano-generator-installation), [Frisco](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/frisco-generator-installation), [Fort Worth](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/fort-worth-generator-installation), [McKinney](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/mckinney-generator-installation), [Allen](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/allen-generator-installation), [Flower Mound](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/flower-mound-generator-installation), [Prosper](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/prosper-generator-installation), [Coppell](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/coppell-generator-installation), [Celina](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/celina-generator-installation), [Denton](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/denton-generator-installation) and [Argyle](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/argyle-generator-installation), usually alongside Oncor or another utility, so your bill is the way to tell. Fees by city are in [generator permit fees by DFW city](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-permit-fees-dfw-cities). On a solar home, where the solar connects changes once a generator goes in: [adding a generator to a solar home](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/standby-generator-with-solar-panels). ## Questions ### Does CoServ have a certified generator installer? Not that CoServ publishes. CoServ's Certified Installer Program is a list of solar installers. On standby generators, CoServ's own FAQ answers "Does CoServ recommend specific electricians?" with "No.", and says the same about specific generators. What it requires is that an electrician installs the generator and follows CoServ policy and the National Electrical Code. ### Do I need to apply to CoServ before installing a standby generator? Yes. CoServ's FAQ: "prior to installation, the Application for Operation of Customer-Owned Generation found on Page 16 in the Distributed Generation (DG) Manual should be completed and submitted." Its requirements page gives DG@coserv.com as the address. The form's own contact section, in the February 2026 manual, lists solar@coserv.com, so confirm with CoServ if you do not hear back. ### What transfer switch does CoServ require? An automatic transfer switch, using open transition. CoServ says standby generators "shall use an open transition transfer switch", and its manual requires "a break before make transition" when generation is for backup power only. An open-transition switch disconnects the house from the CoServ line before it connects the generator, so the two are never connected at once. ### Is there a CoServ fee for a standby generator application? The manual's fee table lists a $150 application fee for systems up to 250kW. It waives the fee for a facility under 50kW that is "of standard design and intended entirely as an emergency or back-up power supply" with no intention to export, but that clause is written for facilities operated in parallel with CoServ's system, which a standby generator on an open-transition switch is not. The manual also says all fees are at CoServ's discretion, so ask CoServ which applies to yours. ### Can I use a GenerLink meter-socket switch on CoServ? CoServ says it allows one and requires it to be installed by a qualified licensed professional. CoServ's generator FAQ says it allows a GenerLink transfer switch, which mounts at the meter socket. That sits uneasily with its own meter-socket rule, so we confirm with CoServ before relying on either.

Which you can check yourself and which need a technician. **Overview:** Cummins air-cooled home standby generators report faults by blinking the status indicator light on the control switch inside the enclosure. One blink is high engine temperature, two is loss of oil pressure, four is cranking time exceeded; three blinks means a service fault, and pressing Stop once makes the controller blink a two-digit code as tens, pause, units. The code stops blinking after five minutes and is restored by pressing Stop three times within three seconds. Codes 33 and 44 are deliberately unassigned so a first-level 3 or 4 cannot be misread. The documented codes are 2, 4, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 22, 27, 29, 32, 35, 36, 37, 43, 45, 46, 76, 78, 79. Of these, 7 have something an owner can safely check first - oil level on code 2, battery terminals on code 32, cooling airflow on code 76, an open fuel valve on code 78, and the generator main breaker on code 79. Fault numbers, names and trigger conditions come from Cummins Service Manual A053X177 (Issue 6), 6-2017, Onan Generator Set for Home Standby, C13N6H / C17N6H / C20N6H / C20N6HC (Spec A). That manual covers the Spec A generation of the RS13A to RS20AC; current production units are a later specification, so a code on a newer unit should be confirmed against its own documentation. The repair procedures in the manual are for trained service personnel and are not reproduced. --- Ownership # The light is blinking a number at you By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 A Cummins air-cooled home standby generator reports a fault by blinking the status light on the control switch inside the enclosure: one blink is high engine temperature, two is low oil pressure, four is overcrank, and three means a service fault — press Stop once and it blinks a two-digit code, tens then units. ## Read the code before you touch anything The status indicator light sits on the control switch inside the generator. After a fault shutdown it blinks in repeating sets, and the first thing to count is how many. First-level faults — the count says it directly - 1 blink: Shutdown on high engine temperature. - 2 blinks: Shutdown on loss of engine oil pressure. - 3 blinks: A service fault. Press Stop once and the controller blinks the two-digit code. - 4 blinks: Cranking time exceeded 35 seconds. The two-digit code blinks as tens, a brief pause, then units. Code 36 is three blinks, pause, six blinks, long pause, repeat. Two details save a lot of confusion here. The code stops blinking after five minutes. Press Stop three times within three seconds to restore it. And the last fault logged keeps blinking even after the condition that caused it has been fixed. Codes 33 and 44 were deliberately never assigned, so that a first-level 3 or 4 can never be mistaken for a two-digit code. Count the pauses as carefully as the blinks. Fault history is kept on the in-home operator panel, which is easier to read than a light in a side yard at night — and if the unit has [remote monitoring](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-remote-monitoring) fitted, the fault can reach you and your dealer without anyone counting anything. ## Codes with something to check first These have a cause an owner can see and, in a few cases, correct. None of them requires opening anything electrical. ### 2 Low oil pressure What triggers it: The oil pressure switch held the control circuit at ground for three seconds or longer. Documented causes: Oil level low or overfilled, a faulty oil pressure relief valve, a faulty oil pump, or an unintended ground in the harness. What you can do: Check the oil level on a cold engine. It is the one item on this list a homeowner can both diagnose and correct, and an overfill triggers it as readily as a low level. ### 29 High battery voltage What triggers it: More than 19 VDC reaching the controller. Documented causes: The wrong battery configuration, damaged wiring, a faulty charger, or the control. What you can do: If anyone has been at the battery recently, that is where to look first. A 24-volt battery fitted to a 12-volt system produces this immediately. ### 32 Low cranking speed What triggers it: Engine speed under 180 RPM for three continuous seconds after the start command. Documented causes: Battery, battery connections, starter, engine, air intake, exhaust, alternator windings, wiring, oil viscosity, or iced or corroded slip rings. What you can do: This is the battery code in practice. Corroded or loose terminals produce it, and both are visible and free to fix. ### 46 Generator set overload What triggers it: Total load above 105% of the set's rating. Documented causes: Too much connected load. What you can do: This one is genuinely informative. It means the machine is smaller than the house is asking for, or that load management is not doing its job. ### 76 Alternator over temperature What triggers it: The alternator temperature switch opened, which happens between 197 and 209 degrees Fahrenheit. Documented causes: Wiring, a faulty temperature switch, a faulty set or fan drive, or inadequate cooling airflow. What you can do: Cooling airflow is the one to check. In a DFW August this is the fault that arrives because something is blocking the enclosure. ### 78 Low fuel pressure What triggers it: The fuel pressure switch reported low pressure. Documented causes: Wiring, the fuel system, or the pressure switch. What you can do: Open any closed fuel valve. That is the manufacturer's own first instruction, and on propane it is worth checking the tank as well. ### 79 Failed to transfer to the generator What triggers it: The transfer to generator power did not complete. Documented causes: Wiring, a faulty positional switch, or a transfer switch component. What you can do: Verify the main AC circuit breaker on the generator is switched on. The manufacturer lists that first because it is frequently the answer. ## Codes that mean stop and call Every one of these is an engine, alternator or governor fault. The machine shut down on purpose, and the useful thing you can do is write down the number. ### 4 Overcrank What triggers it: Three crank attempts of 30 seconds each, 15 seconds apart, without the control sensing that the alternator had come up to frequency. Documented causes: The set did not start: fuel supply, air-fuel mixture, wiring, starter, ignition, or the excitation circuit. What you can do: Confirm the gas valve is open, then stop. Repeated cranking on a unit that will not start is how a good starter and a good battery are destroyed on the same night. ### 12 Overvoltage What triggers it: Above 300 VAC instantly, or between 268 and 300 VAC line-to-line for three continuous seconds. Documented causes: Connected loads, wiring connections, or the alternator windings. What you can do: Nothing. The machine shut itself down to protect what is plugged into it, and that was the right call. ### 13 Undervoltage What triggers it: Below 216 VAC line-to-line for five continuous seconds. Documented causes: Connected loads, wiring, alternator windings, or simple overload. What you can do: Note what was running when it happened. If it tripped as a large motor started, that is a sizing conversation rather than a fault. ### 14 Overfrequency What triggers it: Above 72 Hz instantly, or between 66 and 72 Hz for six continuous seconds. Documented causes: Governor function, fuel supply, air-fuel mixture, exhaust, the demand regulator, throttle plate, alternator windings or wiring. What you can do: Nothing. Frequency faults are engine-speed faults and belong to a technician. ### 15 Underfrequency What triggers it: Below 54 Hz on a 60 Hz set for eight continuous seconds. Documented causes: The same list as overfrequency, plus ignition. What you can do: Underfrequency under heavy load often means the engine is being asked for more than it has. Worth mentioning what was running. ### 19 Governor actuator shutdown What triggers it: The control sensed the governor actuator circuit open or shorted. Documented causes: Wiring connections or the actuator itself. What you can do: Nothing. ### 22 Governor actuator overload What triggers it: Maximum governor output held for ten continuous seconds. Documented causes: Loads, wiring, fuel supply, mixture, exhaust, the actuator, ignition, high ambient temperature, or blocked cooling airflow. What you can do: Two items on that list are yours: blocked cooling airflow and high ambient temperature. Clear anything stacked against the enclosure. ### 27 Voltage sense lost What triggers it: The set is turning above 40 Hz but the control sees under 5 VAC on one or both lines. Documented causes: Loads, alternator windings, or wiring. What you can do: Nothing. ### 36 Stopped without a fault condition What triggers it: Speed under 500 RPM and sense voltage at zero, with no other fault recorded. Documented causes: Fuel supply, mixture, exhaust, the demand regulator, throttle plate, alternator windings, ignition, or wiring. What you can do: Check that the gas supply is on and that nothing has changed at the meter. A set that stops cleanly with no fault has usually lost fuel. ### 45 Speed sense fault What triggers it: While running, the quadrature frequency dropped to zero for one continuous second. Documented causes: Loads, alternator windings, wiring, or open or corroded slip rings. What you can do: Nothing. ## Codes about the controller itself Three codes point at the control board rather than the machine around it. The manufacturer's remedy for two of them is to replace the control. ### 35 Control card failure What triggers it: An EEPROM error during the controller self-test. Documented causes: Faulty program. What you can do: Nothing. The manual's entire remedy is to replace the control. ### 37 Invalid set configuration What triggers it: The control configuration does not match any valid configuration. Documented causes: Configuration or the control. What you can do: Nothing, but the timing is the clue: this normally appears after a control has been replaced and not reconfigured. ### 43 Processor fault What triggers it: A RAM error during the controller self-test. Documented causes: Faulty program. What you can do: Nothing. As with code 35, the remedy is a new control. ## When there is no code at all Three situations produce no number, and the absence is itself information. Status light dead, no response at all Not a fault code, because nothing has enough power to report one. Low or no battery voltage, a poor battery connection, or a failed battery. Try the start switch at the generator and at the in-home panel; if neither responds, clean and tighten both battery cable connections. Cranks but will not start, and no code appears The engine is turning and the control has not yet given up on it. Confirm the fuel supply is on. If it cranks through to code 4, stop there. Starting battery keeps running down Marginal connections, a failing battery, the charging system, or excessive cranking. Worth acting on before it becomes a no-start, because that is the same failure one step later. The first of those points at the battery or its connections, which have [a guide of their own](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-battery-maintenance). ## What we have not put on this page, and why The Cummins service manual gives a diagnosis and repair procedure for every code above. Those procedures are not reproduced here. They are written for trained service personnel working inside a machine with mains voltage present on one side and generator voltage on the other, and the manual says so at the top of the section. The code and its meaning let an owner describe the problem precisely and check the few things that are safe to check. The continuity measurements are for a technician. A code does not tell you how urgent the repair is, and [who covers the repair](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) depends on the part, the unit's age and the fault. ## Questions ### How do I read the fault code on a Cummins generator? The status indicator light on the control switch inside the enclosure blinks it. A repeating set of one, two or four blinks is a first-level fault and means it directly: one is high engine temperature, two is loss of oil pressure, four is cranking time exceeded. Three blinks means a service fault, and pressing Stop once makes the controller blink the two-digit code — tens first, a brief pause, then units. Code 36 blinks three, pause, six. ### The light stopped blinking. Did the fault clear? No. The code stops blinking five minutes after the shutdown, whether or not anything was fixed. Press Stop three times within three seconds to bring it back. Worth knowing the other way round too: the last fault logged keeps blinking even after the cause has been corrected, so a blinking code is not proof the problem is still present. ### Why is there no code 33 or code 44? Because they would be ambiguous. A first-level fault of three or four blinks could be misread as a two-digit 33 or 44, so Cummins never assigned those two numbers to anything. ### Which fault codes can I do something about myself? Five of them have a safe first check. Code 2 is oil level, and an overfill causes it as readily as a low level. Code 32 is usually battery terminals, which are visible and free to fix. Code 76 is usually blocked cooling airflow. Code 78 tells you to open a closed fuel valve, which is the manufacturer's own first instruction. Code 79 asks you to confirm the main breaker on the generator is on. Every other code needs a technician. ### The generator does nothing at all and there is no light. What is that? Not a fault code, because nothing has enough power to report one. That is low or no battery voltage, a bad connection, or a dead battery. Try the start switch at the generator and at the in-home panel — if neither responds, clean and tighten both battery cable connections before assuming the worst. ### Should I keep trying to start it? No. Repeated cranking on a machine that will not start can ruin a good starter and a good battery in the same night, and turns a service call into a parts order. Once you have code 4, confirm the gas valve is open, then stop.

Prices are equipment only. None of the four includes a transfer switch; a Cummins RA 200A switch starts at $1,006.58 and an RA 400A at $2,292.46, and three-phase OTEC switches start at $2,927.10. The base warranty is 2 year standby base warranty, against 5 years / 2,000 hours on the air-cooled range; Cummins extended coverage for these models runs $1,105.56 for 5 years to $2,772.22 for 10 years of parts, labor and travel. Installation is quoted after a free site survey; no installed estimate is published for these models. --- Prices # Cummins RS25, RS30, RS36 and RS40 prices By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published October 9, 2026 The Cummins liquid-cooled RS25 to RS40 cost $17,349.63 to $19,495.69 for the generator alone, depending on the model and the voltage configuration. None of them includes a transfer switch. Installation is quoted after a site survey. ## Price by model | Model | Output | Equipment price | Weight | Dimensions (in) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS25 | 25kW | $17,349.63 to $17,622.48 | 1,109 lb | 72 x 34 x 45.5 | | RS30 | 30kW | $18,691.85 to $18,812.69 | 1,231 lb | 94 x 34 x 45.5 | | RS36 | 36kW | $19,257.65 to $19,356.52 | 1,294 lb | 94 x 34 x 45.5 | | RS40 | 40kW | $19,495.69 | 1,356 lb | 94 x 34 x 45.5 | Prices are the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout. All four run on natural gas or LP vapor at the same rated output. ## Price by voltage configuration Each configuration is its own Cummins part number. Buy the one that matches the electrical service at the address; a house is almost always 120/240V single phase. | Model | Voltage | Part number | Price | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS25 | 120/240 1Ph | A051Y239 | $17,622.48 | | RS25 | 120/208 3Ph | A051Y399 | $17,349.63 | | RS25 | 120/240 3Ph | A051Y400 | $17,483.32 | | RS30 | 120/240 1Ph | A051Y401 | $18,812.69 | | RS30 | 120/208 3Ph | A051Y402 | $18,757.76 | | RS30 | 120/240 3Ph | A051Y405 | $18,691.85 | | RS36 | 120/240 1Ph | A051Y417 | $19,356.52 | | RS36 | 120/240 3Ph | A051Y413 | $19,318.08 | | RS36 | 277/480 3Ph | A051Y416 | $19,332.71 | | RS36 | 120/208 3Ph | A051Y418 | $19,257.65 | | RS40 | 120/240 1Ph | A051Y419 | $19,495.69 | | RS40 | 120/208 3Ph | A051Y420 | $19,495.69 | | RS40 | 120/240 3Ph | A051Y421 | $19,495.69 | | RS40 | 277/480 3Ph | A051Y424 | $19,495.69 | ## What installation adds The generator is one line of the job. These are the other lines on a liquid-cooled install, with the published figures we have for each. The general install ranges are on [what a whole house generator costs in DFW](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing); the only installed estimate we publish is for a 20kW air-cooled system, so we quote these four after a survey. ### A transfer switch None of the four includes one. The switch is sized to the electrical service, not the generator: - [RA 200A](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches/ra-200), single phase, from $1,006.58 - [RA 400A](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches/ra-400), single phase, from $2,292.46 - [OTEC 125A to 600A](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches), for three-phase services, from $2,927.10 ### More gas At full load on natural gas, per the Cummins spec sheets: RS25 309.5 ft³/hr, RS30 380.9 ft³/hr, RS36 472.3 ft³/hr, RS40 519 ft³/hr, against 268 ft³/hr for an air-cooled RS20A. The supply pressure these four need is 6.0 – 14.0 in H₂O (1.5 – 3.5 kPa). Whether the existing line and meter carry it is the most variable cost on the job; the full chart is in [gas line sizing](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator#gas-consumption-chart). ### Your gas line: two ways to do it Our licensed electricians do the electrical work. The gas line is plumbing, so in Texas it is run by a licensed plumber, or by your propane company on an LP system. You choose how that gets arranged. #### We handle it We hire a licensed plumber, schedule them around the electrical work and the inspections, and show the gas line as its own line item in your written quote. You have one contact for the whole job, and we stand behind the gas line we arranged: if it fails because of how it was installed, call us and we get it fixed at no charge. #### You hire your own Some homeowners save money by hiring a licensed plumber or their propane company directly for the gas portion. We take the gas line out of our quote and give your plumber what they need to size it: the generator's fuel demand and required inlet pressure from the Cummins specification sheet, and where the pad will sit. Your plumber warrants their own work. Either way, a gas meter upgrade, if your house needs one, is the gas utility's work on its own schedule, and the city inspects the gas line under its own permit. ### A heavier unit to place These weigh 1,109 to 1,356 lb, against 531 lb for the RS20A, and the RS30, RS36 and RS40 are 94 inches long. The pad is sized to that footprint, and where a truck cannot reach the pad the unit may need a crane, which is a line on [the pricing breakdown](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing). ### Warranty and service The base warranty is 2 year standby base warranty, against 5 years / 2,000 hours on the air-cooled range. Cummins extended coverage for these four runs from $1,105.56 for 5 years to $2,772.22 for 10 years of parts, labor and travel ([every term](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty#warranty-liquid-25-50)). The Cummins operator manual for these engines (A045R242) sets an oil and filter change after the first 50 hours and every 200 hours or 12 months after that, which is part of [a service visit](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). Permits and the inspection are part of every job; for a unit at or under 50kW, Texas limits what a city may impose ([what your city can require](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas)). ## Questions ### How much does a Cummins RS25 cost? The RS25 equipment price is $17,349.63 to $17,622.48, depending on the voltage configuration: 120/240 1Ph $17,622.48, 120/208 3Ph $17,349.63, 120/240 3Ph $17,483.32. That is the generator only. A transfer switch, the pad, the gas line, the electrical work and the permit are added in the installation, which we quote after a site survey. ### Why is there a different price for each voltage? Cummins builds each configuration as its own part number. A single-phase 120/240V house and a three-phase commercial service need different alternator connections, so you buy the configuration that matches the electrical service at the address. We confirm the service at the survey before anything is ordered. ### Does the price include a transfer switch? No. None of these four includes one. The switch is sized to the electrical service, not the generator: a Cummins RA 200A switch starts at $1,006.58, an RA 400A at $2,292.46, and three-phase OTEC switches start at $2,927.10. ### How much more is a liquid-cooled 25kW than an air-cooled 20kW? On equipment alone, the RS25 starts at $17,349.63 and the RS20A is $5,925.25, a difference of $11,424.38. The RS20A has no transfer switch in the box either. The other differences are the base warranty (2 years against 5 years / 2,000 hours), the weight (1,109 lb against 531 lb) and the gas demand at full load (309.5 ft³/hr against 268 ft³/hr of natural gas). ### Is there an RS48? Not in the range we sell. The Cummins liquid-cooled home standby units we carry step from the RS40 to the RS50. Every one is listed on the generators page with its price. Prices, part numbers, weights and dimensions from the 2026 Cummins home standby price sheet. Fuel consumption and supply pressure from the Cummins spec sheets RS25 NAS-5775d-EN (4/15); RS30 NAS-5776d-EN (4/15); RS36 NAS-5777d-EN (4/15); RS40 NAS-5778d-EN (4/15) ([cummins.com](https://www.cummins.com/calculator/cummins-generator-calculator/spec-sheets/RS25-EN.pdf)), retrieved 2026-10-09.

Air-cooled QuietConnect: RS13A (13kW), RS17A (17kW), RS20A and RS20AC (20kW on LP, 18kW on natural gas; the RS20AC includes a 200A service-entrance rated transfer switch), all 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inches, 120/240V single phase, natural gas or propane, five year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. Liquid-cooled RS-series: RS25 through RS150 (25-150kW), single and three phase, natural gas or propane with identical output on both fuels, two-year standby base warranty. Diesel: C20D6 through C200D6D. Figures from the Cummins spec sheets cited on each model page. --- Reference # Every Cummins standby generator model By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Cummins standby generators come in three ranges: air-cooled from 13kW to 20kW, liquid-cooled from 25kW to 150kW, and diesel from 20kW to 200kW. All 35 models we sell are below, with ratings, footprints and available voltages, read from the same catalog our prices come from. ## Which range am I looking at? The range decides the footprint, the sound level, the warranty and roughly the price. Air-cooled, 13kW to 20kW. One enclosure size across all three. Runs at 3600 rpm. Five year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. This is the range most homes are sized into. Liquid-cooled RS-series, 25kW to 150kW. Turns at 1800 rpm instead of 3600. The RS30 is published at 60 dB(A) at 23 feet in its Sound Level 2 enclosure, against 65 dB(A) for the air-cooled units. Two year base warranty. Available single or three phase. Diesel, 20kW to 200kW. For sites with no gas supply, or where a run-time guarantee has to be independent of the utility. Needs a tank and a fuel plan. [The fuel comparison covers when that is worth it](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel). ## Air-cooled QuietConnect: 13kW to 20kW Every unit in this group shares the same 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inch enclosure, the same 999cc V-twin engine, the same 65 dB(A) at 23 feet, and a five year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. The only thing that changes across the three is output. Cummins air-cooled standby range. Single phase, natural gas or propane, field selectable. | Model | Rating | Dimensions (in) | Voltage | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS13AE | 13kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS17A | 17kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS17AE | 17kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS20A | 20kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS20AC | 20kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS20ACE | 20kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | | RS20AE | 20kW | 34.1x36x27.3 | 120/240 1Ph | The 20kW units are rated 20kW on propane and 18kW on natural gas, per the Cummins spec sheet.

Where a sub-base fuel tank changes the overall height, the figure shown is the installed height including the tank, not the base set alone. Prices are published on every model page. What a page cannot tell you is what your property needs — that comes from the gas meter, the panel, the distance between them and the air conditioning load. [Here is how installed cost actually breaks down](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing). Cheapest way to narrow this down: run [the sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) first, then compare only the two or three models it returns. Starting from the full list is how people end up buying more generator than their gas meter can feed. ## Questions about the range ### What sizes do Cummins home standby generators come in? Air-cooled Cummins QuietConnect units come in 13kW, 17kW and 20kW. Above that the range moves to the liquid-cooled RS-series at 25, 30, 36, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 125 and 150kW, and to diesel from 20kW to 200kW. Which one a home needs is set by its air conditioning and other large motor loads, not its floor area. ### What is the difference between the RS20A and the RS20AC? Both are the same 20kW air-cooled generator in the same 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inch enclosure, with the same output on each fuel. The difference is the transfer switch: the RS20AC ships with a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch included, and the RS20A ships without one. The "AC" in the model name has nothing to do with air conditioning. ### Do Cummins generators produce less power on natural gas than on propane? On the air-cooled 20kW units, yes — they are rated 20kW on propane and 18kW on natural gas. The 13kW and 17kW units are equal on both fuels. On the liquid-cooled RS-series from 25kW up the rating is the same on either fuel. [Full comparison here](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel). ### How much space does a Cummins standby generator need? The air-cooled 13kW, 17kW and 20kW units share one footprint: 34.1 x 36 x 27.3 inches. The RS25 is 72 x 34 x 45.5 inches, the RS30 through RS40 are 94 inches long, and the RS50 through RS100 are 118.7 x 40 x 58.3. Add 18 inches of clearance from the building to meet NFPA 37, plus whatever your city or HOA requires for the property line. ### Is the Cummins warranty the same across the range? No. The air-cooled 13kW, 17kW and 20kW units carry a five year / 2,000 hour limited warranty. The liquid-cooled RS-series from 25kW up carries a two year standby base warranty with extended options available. RA-series automatic transfer switches carry their own two year warranty. [What each one actually covers](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty). ### Does Cummins make a three-phase standby generator? Yes, from the RS25 up. Three-phase configurations are available in 120/208 and 120/240 across the range, with 277/480 added from the RS36 up. Air-cooled units are single phase only. Three-phase configurations up to 100kW are priced on each model page, and larger sets are quoted; Cummins builds the set to the voltage you order, so we confirm your service voltage before it is ordered.

By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Yes. A standby generator can be financed inside a construction loan, a renovation mortgage such as FHA 203(k) or Fannie Mae HomeStyle, a home equity loan or HELOC, or a home improvement installment loan. The cheapest time is during a build, when the trenching, gas line and pad work is already open. ## Why timing beats the interest rate A standby generator install is mostly trenching, conduit, a gas line and a pad. During construction all of that is already open, already scheduled, and already being paid for by somebody. Adding the generator to that scope is incremental. Adding it after the landscaping is in means cutting it back open. If you are building or doing a substantial renovation and a generator is on your list, price it now. [What the installation involves](https://utselectricpros.com/installation). ## The four routes, ranked by when they make sense ### 1. Inside a construction loan The cleanest option if you are building. The generator becomes a line in the build budget, drawn like any other allowance, and on a construction-to-permanent loan it is financed over the permanent loan rather than paid in cash. Your builder will want our itemized bid early enough to fold into the schedule of values. ### 2. Inside a renovation mortgage FHA 203(k) and Fannie Mae HomeStyle fund permanent improvements, and a permanently installed standby generator is affixed to the property and conveys at sale. Whether it qualifies is the lender's decision, and they will want a contractor bid with a license number on it. ### 3. Home equity loan or HELOC For an existing home with equity, this is usually the lowest-cost borrowing available and it does not touch the first mortgage. The trade is that it is secured by the house and the draw period has its own arithmetic. Price it against option four. ### 4. A straight home improvement installment loan — or Affirm on the equipment Typically unsecured, with no appraisal and no lien on the property. Terms, fees and whether a rate check is a soft or hard inquiry vary by lender, so ask before you apply. Affirm is the other route on this page, and it applies to a different situation: buying the generator on its own, with your own licensed electrician doing the installation. Chosen at checkout like any other payment method, over 3 to 36 months, within Affirm's published $30,000 ceiling including freight and tax. It is an equipment purchase, not a way to split an installed project. When we do the installation, the generator and the work are one contract at one price, so the loan above is what funds it. [How both work](https://utselectricpros.com/financing). The route to be careful with: refinancing an existing mortgage purely to fund a generator. On a typical installed 20kW system, estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, closing costs can exceed the interest saved, and giving up a low fixed rate to fund an improvement is an expensive trade. Compare the total cost of each route first. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. ## Pre-wire now, add the unit later If the budget will not stretch to the generator during the build, install the infrastructure anyway — the automatic transfer switch, the pad, the conduit run and the gas stub. That is the part that is disruptive and expensive to retrofit. Adding the generator afterwards becomes a connection rather than a project, and the infrastructure is financed inside the build where it belongs. We quote this as a standalone scope for builders and for homeowners who know a generator is coming eventually. [Transfer switches are here](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches). ## What your lender will ask us for Every route above except the unsecured loan needs paperwork from the installer: usually an itemized bid on letterhead separating equipment, labor and permits, and the Texas electrical contractor license number, TECL #40628. If your lender asks for anything further, send us the request. The install must be permitted and inspected. An unpermitted generator is a disclosure problem at resale, and no financing route changes that. [What your city can and cannot require](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). ## Financing questions ### Can a generator be included in a construction loan? Yes, and it is the cheapest time to do it. A generator installed during construction shares trenching, conduit, gas line and slab work that would otherwise be billed separately later. The cost is drawn against the build like any other allowance item, so it is financed over the life of the loan rather than paid out of pocket. ### Can I add a generator to a renovation mortgage? Often. FHA 203(k) and Fannie Mae HomeStyle renovation loans fund permanent improvements to the property, and a permanently installed standby generator is affixed to the property and conveys at sale. Whether it qualifies under a given program is the lender's call, and they will want an itemized contractor bid. We provide one written for that purpose. ### Is it worth refinancing my mortgage to pay for a generator? Usually not. On a typical installed 20kW system, estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, closing costs on a refinance can exceed the interest saved, and resetting a low-rate mortgage to fund an improvement is an expensive way to borrow. A home equity line or a straight installment loan is normally the better arithmetic. Run both before deciding. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. ### Do I need a generator installed before closing, or can I pre-wire? You can pre-wire. Installing the automatic transfer switch, the pad, the conduit and the gas stub at build time and adding the generator later is a legitimate middle path — the expensive, disruptive work is done while the walls are open, and the later install becomes a connection rather than a project. It also lets a buyer finance the infrastructure inside the build and buy the unit when they are ready. ### Will a generator appraise? A permanently installed, permitted standby generator is a fixture and is normally treated as part of the property. Whether an appraiser assigns it dollar-for-dollar value is a separate question, and you should not assume full cost recovery. What reliably matters is that it was permitted and inspected — an unpermitted generator is a title and disclosure problem regardless of what it cost. ### Can I just pay monthly for the generator itself? Yes, and it is the fastest route. Equipment on this site can be paid monthly with Affirm at checkout over 3 to 36 months, with a soft credit check and no application to chase. It covers a standalone equipment purchase where you arrange your own licensed installer, not an installed project — when we install, the equipment and the work are one contract at one price. Affirm's published ceiling is $30,000 including freight and tax, and on the largest units it is not always offered. [Full detail here](https://utselectricpros.com/financing). ### What does the lender need from the installer? Usually an itemized bid on contractor letterhead showing equipment, labor, permits and total, and the contractor license number: ours is TECL #40628. If your lender asks for anything else, tell us what it is. [Request a lender-ready quote](https://utselectricpros.com/quote). ## Need a bid your lender will accept?

At full load the RS13A draws 217,227 BTU/hr on natural gas, the RS17A 245,954 BTU/hr and the RS20A 255,947 BTU/hr. The unit requires 3.5 – 12.0 in H₂O (0.87 – 3.0 kPa) of natural gas pressure or 6.0 – 12.0 in H₂O (1.49 – 3.0 kPa) on LP vapor, measured at the generator inlet while it is running at full load, not at rest. Whether the existing line carries that depends on pipe diameter, the developed length of the run, the material, and the total demand of every other appliance on the system. Where the meter cannot deliver the combined load, the utility has to upsize it, which is a separate request with its own timeline. UTS ElectricPros measures this at the free site survey; the gas piping itself is run by a licensed plumber. --- Installation # Gas line sizing for a standby generator By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 At full load a Cummins RS20A draws 255,947 BTU/hr of natural gas and needs 3.5 – 12.0 in H₂O (0.87 – 3.0 kPa) at its inlet while running. Whether your existing line delivers that depends on pipe diameter, developed length, pipe material and every other gas appliance on the system. ## What the generator actually demands Full-load fuel consumption, Cummins air-cooled standby range. | Model | Output | Natural gas, full load | LP vapor, full load | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13kW | 217,227 BTU/hr | 197,681 BTU/hr | | RS17A | 17kW | 245,954 BTU/hr | 242,386 BTU/hr | | RS20A | 20kW | 255,947 BTU/hr | 265,783 BTU/hr | For comparison, residential gas furnaces are commonly rated around 40,000 to 120,000 BTU/hr and a tank water heater around 40,000. A RS20A at full load asks for 255,947 BTU/hr on its own — on a lot of houses that is more than everything else on the system put together, arriving as a single new load. ## Generator gas consumption chart by Cummins model Cummins publishes fuel use at four load points, and the figures below are copied from each model’s spec sheet. Size the gas line for the full-load column, because that is what the engine asks for when the air conditioning and everything else come on together. ### Natural gas, cubic feet per hour | Model | Rated output | 1/4 load | 1/2 load | 3/4 load | Full load | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13kW | 129 ft³/hr | 154 ft³/hr | 187 ft³/hr | 228 ft³/hr | | RS17A | 17kW | 134 ft³/hr | 165 ft³/hr | 215 ft³/hr | 258 ft³/hr | | RS20A | 18kW NG / 20kW LP | 135 ft³/hr | 172 ft³/hr | 223 ft³/hr | 268 ft³/hr | | RS25 | 25kW | 123.8 ft³/hr | 185.7 ft³/hr | 247.6 ft³/hr | 309.5 ft³/hr | | RS30 | 30kW | 147.6 ft³/hr | 219 ft³/hr | 300 ft³/hr | 380.9 ft³/hr | | RS36 | 36kW | 202.3 ft³/hr | 292.3 ft³/hr | 382.3 ft³/hr | 472.3 ft³/hr | | RS40 | 40kW | 209.5 ft³/hr | 304.7 ft³/hr | 409.5 ft³/hr | 519 ft³/hr | | RS50 | 50kW | 341.3 ft³/hr | 481.6 ft³/hr | 624.6 ft³/hr | 806.3 ft³/hr | | RS60 | 60kW | 363.4 ft³/hr | 545 ft³/hr | 729.5 ft³/hr | 933.8 ft³/hr | | RS80 | 80kW | 455.3 ft³/hr | 678.7 ft³/hr | 877 ft³/hr | 1,083.5 ft³/hr | | RS100 | 100kW | 549.6 ft³/hr | 805.4 ft³/hr | 1,050.8 ft³/hr | 1,317.7 ft³/hr | | RS125 | 125kW | 680.7 ft³/hr | 1,038.1 ft³/hr | 1,362.2 ft³/hr | 1,660.9 ft³/hr | | RS150 | 150kW | 750.2 ft³/hr | 1,175.7 ft³/hr | 1,545.7 ft³/hr | 1,907.9 ft³/hr | ### LP vapor (propane), cubic feet and gallons per hour | Model | 1/4 load | 1/2 load | 3/4 load | Full load | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 42 ft³/hr (1.15 gal/hr) | 51 ft³/hr (1.40 gal/hr) | 64 ft³/hr (1.76 gal/hr) | 83 ft³/hr (2.28 gal/hr) | | RS17A | 48 ft³/hr (1.32 gal/hr) | 63 ft³/hr (1.73 gal/hr) | 82 ft³/hr (2.25 gal/hr) | 102 ft³/hr (2.80 gal/hr) | | RS20A | 49 ft³/hr (1.35 gal/hr) | 66 ft³/hr (1.81 gal/hr) | 88 ft³/hr (2.42 gal/hr) | 112 ft³/hr (3.08 gal/hr) | | RS25 | 51.6 ft³/hr (1.4 gal/hr) | 75.6 ft³/hr (2.1 gal/hr) | 99.6 ft³/hr (2.8 gal/hr) | 125.4 ft³/hr (3.5 gal/hr) | | RS30 | 66.4 ft³/hr (1.8 gal/hr) | 95.9 ft³/hr (2.7 gal/hr) | 129.1 ft³/hr (3.6 gal/hr) | 164.1 ft³/hr (4.5 gal/hr) | | RS36 | 79.8 ft³/hr (2.2 gal/hr) | 114.1 ft³/hr (3.2 gal/hr) | 148.4 ft³/hr (4.1 gal/hr) | 182.7 ft³/hr (5.1 gal/hr) | | RS40 | 83 ft³/hr (2.3 gal/hr) | 121.7 ft³/hr (3.4 gal/hr) | 166 ft³/hr (4.6 gal/hr) | 193.6 ft³/hr (5.4 gal/hr) | | RS50 | 144.8 ft³/hr (3.98 gal/hr) | 204.7 ft³/hr (5.63 gal/hr) | 254.3 ft³/hr (6.99 gal/hr) | 321.6 ft³/hr (8.84 gal/hr) | | RS60 | 151.4 ft³/hr (4.16 gal/hr) | 217 ft³/hr (5.96 gal/hr) | 289.3 ft³/hr (7.95 gal/hr) | 370.2 ft³/hr (10.17 gal/hr) | | RS80 | 181.9 ft³/hr (5 gal/hr) | 263 ft³/hr (7.23 gal/hr) | 339.8 ft³/hr (9.34 gal/hr) | 420.8 ft³/hr (11.56 gal/hr) | | RS100 | 207.5 ft³/hr (5.7 gal/hr) | 311.8 ft³/hr (8.57 gal/hr) | 411.2 ft³/hr (11.3 gal/hr) | 518.7 ft³/hr (14.25 gal/hr) | | RS125 | No LP vapor table on this model’s Cummins sheet | | | | | RS150 | No LP vapor table on this model’s Cummins sheet | | | | BTU/hr is the unit gas piping is sized in. Cummins states it for the air-cooled models, in the table above; the liquid-cooled sheets give cubic feet per hour only, so no BTU figure is shown for them here. LP gallons per hour on the liquid-cooled models are the sheets’ own figures. On the air-cooled models they are the sheet’s cubic feet converted at its stated factor: 36.39 ft³ of LP vapor = 1 US gallon of liquid propane (Cummins conversion factor, same sheet). ## Pressure is the number that gets missed Air-cooled, natural gas: 3.5 – 12.0 in H₂O (0.87 – 3.0 kPa) Air-cooled, LP vapor: 6.0 – 12.0 in H₂O (1.49 – 3.0 kPa) RS25, RS30, RS36, RS40, RS50, RS60, RS80, RS100: 6.0 – 14.0 in H₂O (1.5 – 3.5 kPa) RS125, RS150: Natural gas 6.0 – 13.0 in H₂O (1.5 – 3.5 kPa) Those are measured at the generator inlet, while it is running at full load . A line can read perfectly acceptable pressure with the engine off and then sag below the minimum the moment it takes load, because pressure drop is a function of flow. The symptom can be a generator that starts, runs briefly and shuts down when the load comes on. ## The four things that decide the answer - Pipe diameter. Capacity rises steeply with diameter, so going up one trade size often solves a run that looked hopeless. - Developed length. Not the straight-line distance — the actual run, with every elbow and tee counted as the equivalent length of straight pipe it behaves like. - Material. Black iron, CSST and polyethylene have different capacities for the same nominal size, and CSST in particular is sized off its own manufacturer's tables rather than the generic ones. - Everything else on the system. The line is sized on total connected demand. The generator does not get assessed on its own. Those four are why gas work is priced after the survey rather than from a photograph, and the survey tells you which of the four is the constraint at your house. ### Your gas line: two ways to do it Our licensed electricians do the electrical work. The gas line is plumbing, so in Texas it is run by a licensed plumber, or by your propane company on an LP system. You choose how that gets arranged. #### We handle it We hire a licensed plumber, schedule them around the electrical work and the inspections, and show the gas line as its own line item in your written quote. You have one contact for the whole job, and we stand behind the gas line we arranged: if it fails because of how it was installed, call us and we get it fixed at no charge. #### You hire your own Some homeowners save money by hiring a licensed plumber or their propane company directly for the gas portion. We take the gas line out of our quote and give your plumber what they need to size it: the generator's fuel demand and required inlet pressure from the Cummins specification sheet, and where the pad will sit. Your plumber warrants their own work. Either way, a gas meter upgrade, if your house needs one, is the gas utility's work on its own schedule, and the city inspects the gas line under its own permit. ## When the meter has to change Occasionally the pipe is not the constraint and the meter is. A residential meter is sized for the house it was set for, and adding a 20kW generator can push total demand past what it is rated to deliver. That is a request to the gas utility — Atmos Energy in most of this market — rather than work we perform, and it happens on the utility's schedule, so we raise it at the survey rather than a week before the install. ## Where this sits in the cost The gas side is the most variable line on a generator install, which is why the installed bands we publish are bands rather than prices. If your meter has spare capacity and sits near the generator location, the gas work is straightforward. If a long run has to be upsized through a finished wall, it is not. The full breakdown is on [what a whole house generator really costs in DFW](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing), and [how installation actually works](https://utselectricpros.com/installation) sets out where in the sequence this gets settled. If you have not chosen a fuel yet, that decision comes first and changes everything on this page: [natural gas, propane or diesel](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel). ## Questions ### How much natural gas does a standby generator use per hour? At full load, per the Cummins spec sheets: RS13A 228 ft³/hr, RS17A 258 ft³/hr, RS20A 268 ft³/hr, RS25 309.5 ft³/hr, RS30 380.9 ft³/hr, RS36 472.3 ft³/hr, RS40 519 ft³/hr, RS50 806.3 ft³/hr, RS60 933.8 ft³/hr, RS80 1,083.5 ft³/hr, RS100 1,317.7 ft³/hr, RS125 1,660.9 ft³/hr, RS150 1,907.9 ft³/hr. The chart on this page gives every model at quarter, half, three-quarter and full load, and the gas line is sized for full load. ### Does a generator need a bigger gas line? Often. A RS20A at full load draws 255,947 BTU/hr on natural gas, which on many homes is more than the furnace, range and water heater put together. Whether your existing line carries it depends on the pipe diameter, how far it runs, and what else is connected. Sometimes the existing line is fine. Sometimes a section has to be upsized. Occasionally the meter itself does. ### What gas pressure does a Cummins standby generator need? 3.5 – 12.0 in H₂O (0.87 – 3.0 kPa) on natural gas, or 6.0 – 12.0 in H₂O (1.49 – 3.0 kPa) on LP vapor. The figure that matters is the pressure at the generator inlet while it is running at full load, which is not the same as the pressure sitting there with everything off. A line that reads fine at rest can sag below the minimum the moment the engine takes load, and that shows up as a unit that starts and then shuts down. ### Who pays to upsize the gas meter? The meter belongs to the gas utility, so upsizing it is a request to them rather than work we perform. In this market that is usually Atmos Energy. Ask the utility whether it charges for the change. It runs on the utility's schedule, which is why we raise it at the survey rather than at the install. The piping on your side of the meter is run by a licensed plumber: on a turnkey job we hire one and it is a line item in our quote, or you can hire your own plumber and we give them the generator's fuel demand and inlet pressure to size it. ### Do your electricians run the gas line? No. Gas piping is plumbing work, so it is done by a licensed plumber, or by your propane company on an LP system. Our crews do the electrical side. On a turnkey job we hire and schedule the plumber and stand behind the gas line; if you would rather hire your own plumber to save money, we take the gas line out of our quote and that plumber warrants it. ### Can the generator share the line with my furnace and water heater? Yes, and it normally does. Gas systems are sized on total connected demand, so the question is not whether the generator can share the line but whether the line was sized for everything at once. A standby generator is an intermittent load, but it has to be treated as a real one because it runs exactly when the heating is also running — an ice storm is when both happen together. ### Why does propane change the pipe sizing? Propane carries roughly two and a half times the energy per cubic foot of natural gas, so a given BTU demand moves less gas volume and can travel through a smaller pipe. The pressure requirement is different too — 6.0 – 12.0 in H₂O (1.49 – 3.0 kPa) on LP against 3.5 – 12.0 in H₂O (0.87 – 3.0 kPa) on natural gas. What propane adds instead is the tank: it has to be large enough to vaporize at the rate the generator consumes, which is a cold-weather question rather than a pipe question.

Why Texas heat and cold are hard on it, and why only a load test proves it. **Overview:** Cummins air-cooled standby generators use a Group 51R, 450 CCA at 32°F (0°C) starting battery, Cummins part A052Y816, on a 12 volt, negative ground system, kept charged by a 4 A, plus battery charging alternator. A weak battery or a loose or corroded connection is a common reason a standby generator fails to start. Standby duty is hard on a lead-acid battery because it spends almost all its life on float charge and is then asked for maximum cranking current without warning. Heat shortens lead-acid battery life and cold reduces the cranking current it can deliver, and the Dallas-Fort Worth climate supplies both, so a battery that reads fine during a mild-weather exercise can still fail to crank in a freeze. A weekly exercise proves the starting circuit; only a load test proves the battery. --- Ownership # Standby generator battery maintenance By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Cummins air-cooled standby generators take a Group 51R, 450 CCA at 32°F (0°C) battery (Cummins part A052Y816) on a 12 volt, negative ground system. Load-test it at each service visit: the weekly exercise proves the unit starts that day, not that the battery has capacity left. ## What is actually in there Battery: Group 51R, 450 CCA at 32°F (0°C) Cummins part: A052Y816 System: 12 volt, negative ground Charger: 4 A, plus battery charging alternator Two numbers on that list do the work. The group size is what fits the tray and lets the cables reach, so it is not a suggestion. The cold cranking amps figure is what turns a cold engine over, and it is the number that quietly falls away as the battery ages. ## Why standby duty is so hard on a battery A car battery is discharged a little and recharged every day it is driven. A standby generator battery sits on float charge for months and is then asked for its maximum cranking current with no warning. Loss of capacity does not show during a short weekly start. ## Texas gets you from both directions Heat shortens the life. High temperature accelerates the internal corrosion that eventually stops a lead-acid battery holding charge. A battery sitting in an enclosure through a North Texas summer ages faster than it would in a milder climate. Cold exposes the damage. A battery delivers less cranking current as temperature falls, so capacity lost over the summer shows up in the first hard freeze. A unit can pass every exercise and still fail to crank at 15°F, which is why the battery is first in [cold-weather operation](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cold-weather-generator-operation). ## The weekly exercise does not prove what people think It proves the starting circuit works and the engine runs. It does not prove the battery has capacity left, because starting draws heavily for a few seconds and the 4 a, plus battery charging alternator puts that straight back. A battery with a fraction of its original capacity can still start a warm engine on a mild day. A load test puts a real draw on the battery and checks whether the voltage holds. It is part of [a service visit](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). ## What you can check yourself - Terminals. Corrosion at the posts adds resistance exactly where you cannot afford it. It is visible, and it cleans off. - Tightness. A loose connection reads as a dead battery and is free to fix. - The controller. These units report a battery fault before a human would notice one. If the panel is showing a warning, the blink pattern is a specific number. [Code 32, low cranking speed](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-generator-fault-codes), lists the battery and its connections first among its documented causes. - Age. If you do not know how old it is, that is itself the answer. Treat it as a wear part. If the unit has [remote monitoring](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-remote-monitoring) fitted, a battery warning can reach you and the dealer rather than sitting on a panel in a side yard. ## Replacement The correct battery is [Cummins part A052Y816](https://utselectricpros.com/accessories), and we keep it alongside the preventative maintenance kit (A054H068) for these units. Replace it on the evidence of a load test rather than after a failed start. Batteries are often treated as wear items under a warranty. The [warranty page](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) sets out what the manufacturer covers and what we cover. ## Questions ### What battery does a Cummins home standby generator take? A Group 51R, 450 CCA at 32°F (0°C) on a 12 volt, negative ground system. The Cummins part number is A052Y816. The group size matters because it is what fits the tray and the cable reach; the cold cranking amps figure matters because that is what actually turns the engine over on the coldest morning of the year. ### Why do standby generator batteries fail? Because standby duty is unusually hard on one. A car battery gets exercised constantly — discharged a little, recharged a lot, every day. A standby generator battery sits on float charge for months, does nothing, and is then asked for its maximum output with no warning. That duty cycle ages a lead-acid battery in a way that does not show up until the moment it is needed. ### How long does a standby generator battery last? Cummins does not publish a fixed life, and it is shorter in a hot climate than a cool one: heat accelerates the internal corrosion that eventually stops a lead-acid battery holding charge, and a battery in an enclosure through a North Texas summer gets plenty of it. Treat it as a wear part, load-test it at each service visit, and replace it on that evidence rather than waiting for a failed start. ### Doesn't the weekly exercise prove the battery is fine? It proves the battery could start a warm engine on that particular day. It does not prove the battery has capacity left, because starting is a few seconds of draw and the charger puts it straight back. A battery can pass every exercise for months and still fail the first time it has to crank a cold engine. What settles it is a load test, which is a service-visit job. ### Is the battery covered by the warranty? Check the warranty terms for your unit before you need to, because batteries are often treated as wear items. The warranty page sets out the manufacturer's coverage and ours, and we confirm battery coverage for a specific unit on request.

What each Cummins model actually delivers at 100°F, from the derate footnote on the spec sheet. **Overview:** Cummins air-cooled standby generators are rated at reference conditions that differ by model, and output derates above them: 3.5% for each 1,000 ft of altitude and 1% for each 10 °F of ambient temperature. The RS20A and RS20AC are referenced at 60 °F and 0 ft, the RS17A at 77 °F and 1,000 ft, and the RS13A at 77 °F and 6,900 ft. At Dallas-Fort Worth conditions of roughly 600 ft and 100 °F, that puts the RS20A at about 18.8 kW on LP against its 20 kW LP rating, and about 16.9 kW on natural gas against its 18 kW natural gas rating, the RS17A at about 16.6 kW, and the RS13A at about 12.7 kW. The Cummins liquid-cooled range holds full engine power to 2,500 ft at up to 104 °F on natural gas, so on the published guideline it does not derate at normal DFW summer conditions. --- Texas weather # What your generator actually makes at 100°F By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 At 100°F and DFW’s roughly 600 ft elevation, the Cummins derate guideline puts a 20kW RS20A at about 18.8kW on LP and about 16.9kW on natural gas. The RS17A and RS13A lose less, and the liquid-cooled range does not derate at these conditions. ## The rule, quoted “Full rated power is available up to the reference condition for each model. Above it, derate 3.5% for each increase of 300 m (1000 ft.) and 1% for each increase of 5.5 °C (10 °F).” Cummins Power Generation spec sheet NAS-6254-EN (A056T581), footnote 3, read 2026-09-20 Hot air is less dense, so a given cylinder volume holds less oxygen and the engine makes less power. Altitude has the same effect for the same reason. ## Each model has a different reference condition The reference condition is not the same across the range: | Model | Full power up to | | --- | --- | | RS13A — 13kW | 25 °C (77 °F) and 2100 m (6900 ft.) | | RS17A — 17kW | 25 °C (77 °F) and 300 m (1000 ft.) | | RS20A — 20kW | 15 °C (60 °F) and 0 m (0 ft.) | The RS20A and RS20AC are referenced at 60°F and sea level . The RS13A is referenced at 77°F and 6,900 ft. Same derate percentages, very different starting points — so the biggest air-cooled unit is the one that loses the most in this climate. ## Run at Dallas–Fort Worth conditions Calculated at 600 ft and 100°F, applying the published guideline to each model's own reference condition. DFW elevation runs about 430 ft in Dallas and 650 ft in Fort Worth. | Model | Nameplate | Altitude derate | Temperature derate | Delivered on LP, about | Delivered on natural gas, about | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13 kW | 0.0% | 2.3% | 12.7 kW | 12.7 kW (rated 13 kW) | | RS17A | 17 kW | 0.0% | 2.3% | 16.6 kW | 16.6 kW (rated 17 kW) | | RS20A | 20 kW | 2.1% | 4.0% | 18.8 kW | 16.9 kW (rated 18 kW) | So on a 100°F afternoon a 20kW RS20A is roughly a 18.8kW unit on LP and a 16.9kW unit on natural gas. That derated figure, on your fuel, is the one that belongs in a load calculation. ## It compresses the gap between sizes On the nameplate, the RS20A is 3kW bigger than the RS17A. In real summer conditions that gap narrows to about 2.2kW, because the RS20A derates from a stricter reference and the RS17A barely derates at all. Derating compresses the differences between sizes rather than moving every house up one, so the decision belongs to a load calculation. Which of the three suits you is covered in [13kW, 17kW or 20kW](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/13kw-vs-17kw-vs-20kw), and the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) gives you a range against your own house. ## Liquid-cooled barely notices Natural gas: Full engine power to 2,500 ft at up to 104°F. Above that, derate 4% per 1,000 ft and 2% per 10°C. LP: Full engine power to 3,300 ft at up to 104°F, then the same derate. A 104°F ceiling sits above a normal North Texas summer afternoon, and 2,500 ft is far above anything in the Metroplex, so the liquid-cooled range delivers its rating here except on the hottest days. If your load calculation lands near the top of the air-cooled range, weigh that: [every liquid-cooled model, 25kW to 150kW](https://utselectricpros.com/generators#liquid-cooled) is priced on the site. Natural gas and LP output are identical on the liquid-cooled range — there is no natural gas derate. ## How we use it We size against the derated figure for your fuel rather than the nameplate. The other side of the year has its own failure modes, covered in [cold-weather operation](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cold-weather-generator-operation). ## Questions ### Does a generator produce less power when it is hot? Yes. Footnote 3 of the Cummins spec sheet quotes full rated power up to a stated reference condition and then derates 3.5% for each 1,000 ft of altitude and 1% for each 10 °F above it. Hot air is less dense, so the engine takes in less oxygen per stroke and makes less power. ### How much does a 20kW generator actually make in Texas? On the published guideline, a Cummins RS20A delivers about 18.8 kW on LP and about 16.9 kW on natural gas on a 100 °F afternoon at DFW elevation; its natural gas rating is 18 kW before any derate. The reason the RS20A loses more than the smaller units is that it is referenced at 60 °F and sea level, while the RS17A is referenced at 77 °F and 1,000 ft. Same derate rule, stricter starting point. ### Should I buy a bigger generator because of derating? Not automatically. A 3kW gap on the nameplate between the RS17A and the RS20A narrows to about 2.2kW in real summer conditions — so derating compresses the difference between sizes rather than shifting everything up one. What it should change is whether you size to the exact calculated load or leave headroom. We use the derated figure in the load calculation rather than the nameplate. ### Do liquid-cooled generators derate in Texas too? Effectively no, at DFW conditions. Full engine power to 2,500 ft at up to 104°F. Above that, derate 4% per 1,000 ft and 2% per 10°C. On LP it is full engine power to 3,300 ft at up to 104°F, then the same derate. That 104 °F ceiling sits above a normal North Texas summer afternoon, so a liquid-cooled unit delivers its rating here except on the hottest days. ### Does altitude matter in Dallas-Fort Worth? A little. DFW sits around 600 ft — roughly 430 ft in Dallas and 650 ft in Fort Worth. That is below the reference altitude for the RS13A and RS17A, so it costs them nothing. The RS20A and RS20AC are referenced at sea level, so the elevation does cost them about 2.1% before temperature is considered at all. The sheet states these are guidelines: maximum wattage or current is subject to and limited by fuel Btu content, ambient temperature, altitude, engine power and condition. Figures on this page apply the published guideline arithmetically to DFW design conditions; the delivered output of any specific machine also depends on fuel BTU content and engine condition.

Three inspections: plumbing rough where applicable, electrical rough, electrical final. | City of Denton: Generators | | Flower Mound Denton County | $150 | A dedicated Residential Backup Power permit with three inspections: plumbing rough and gas test where a new gas line is run, electrical rough, then finals. | Town of Flower Mound Residential Backup Power Information Packet (rev. 10.01.2026) and Building Inspections Fee Schedule, effective October 1, 2026 | | Fort Worth Tarrant County | priced by capacity rather than a flat fee — $6.10 up to 10kW, $9.85 to 20kW, $19.75 above, plus a service or subpanel charge | When inspections are performed by a third party, Fort Worth reduces the permit fee by multiplying it by 35% (0.35). | City of Fort Worth Development Fees Schedule, Ordinance 26-28781, effective October 1, 2026 | | Grapevine Tarrant County | No separate generator fee published | One combined mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fuel gas application, with a fee charged per trade. | City of Grapevine Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Irrigation, Fuel Gas Permit Application | | Irving Dallas County | $130 minimum | Filed as a home backup power installation through the MGO portal. You choose third-party review and inspection, or full in-house city review. | City of Irving SOP, Home Backup Power Installations – Review and Inspection | | Mansfield Tarrant County | No separate generator fee published | Stand-alone electrical and plumbing-gas permits. The city will not issue the electric or gas service release until it has passed the inspection, so the inspection gates your connection. | City of Mansfield: SB 1202 Home Backup Power Installation Plan Review & Inspection (09/2025) | | McKinney Collin County | $80 | McKinney has a dedicated Residential Standby Generator permit, filed through the CSS portal, separate from its stand-alone electrical and plumbing permits. | City of McKinney Permit Fee Schedule; Home Repairs & Permit Information | | Midlothian Ellis County | No separate generator fee published | Midlothian has no generator line in its Master Fee Schedule. Its electrical permit minimum fee is $50, and a permit that is required but not listed on the schedule is priced on the total valuation of the work. | City of Midlothian Master Fee Schedule, effective 09/22/2026 (RES 2026-68) | | Trophy Club Denton County | No separate generator fee published | Trophy Club has its own generator permit application rather than folding the work into a general one, and lets you choose between a town inspector and an approved third-party provider. | Town of Trophy Club Generator Permit Application | Fees change: Fort Worth, Flower Mound and Denton all issued new fee schedules effective 1 October 2026. A city not in this table is one whose current document we have not checked, not one without a fee. The gas side usually needs its own plumbing permit, pulled by the plumber. ## The two Texas laws behind these permits Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 (SB 1252) says a city “may not adopt or enforce an ordinance, rule, or other measure that would regulate the installation or inspection of a residential energy backup system” of 50kW or less. The exception is a city-owned utility inside its own service area, which in this table means [Denton](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/denton-generator-installation). Cities still run a permit process, and the fees above are what they publish. Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 (SB 1202) lets an authorized third party review and inspect a home backup power installation instead of the city, and the city must issue the approval within three business days of being notified. A city may not charge for the review or inspection the third party performed, and a city that has not posted a fee schedule may not charge to issue the permit. Fort Worth’s schedule applies the third-party rule directly: when inspections are performed by a third party, Fort Worth reduces the permit fee by multiplying it by 35% (0.35). Both are set out with the statute text on [what your city can and cannot require](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). We are electricians, not attorneys, and this is not legal advice. ## Questions ### How much is a generator permit in McKinney? McKinney publishes an $80 fee for a residential generator permit, separate from its $40 stand-alone electrical and mechanical permit fees. McKinney has a dedicated Residential Standby Generator permit, filed through the CSS portal, separate from its stand-alone electrical and plumbing permits. ### Which DFW city charges the most for a generator permit? The fees are not directly comparable, because cities charge on different bases: some publish a flat residential generator fee, some a minimum, and Fort Worth prices by generator capacity plus a service charge. Compare the total your contractor will pay at your address, which is part of the written quote. ### Do I pay the permit fee or does the installer? On our jobs the permit is pulled by us and is part of the quote, so it is one line in the written price rather than a separate bill. The gas permit, where one is needed, is pulled by the licensed plumber who does that work. ### Can a third party do the inspection instead of the city? For a home backup power installation, yes: Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 (SB 1202) lets an authorized third party, including a licensed master electrician or electrical inspector, do the plan review and inspection. Several cities in this table say so in their own documents, and Fort Worth reduces its fee when a third party inspects. Some cities limit it to the electrical portion and keep the gas inspection. ## The permit is part of our quote We pull it, schedule the inspections and meet the inspector, across the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. ### Rather just talk to someone?

What the app reports, what it controls, and what it does not replace. **Overview:** Cummins ConnectCloud remote monitoring is built into the Cummins air-cooled home standby range (13kW to 20kW), which Cummins describes as a $299 value at no cost with no ongoing monitoring cost. The app, for Apple and Android, reports whether the home is on utility or generator power, whether the generator is available, service due, current faults, alert history and exercise dates, and lets the owner change the exercise schedule and automatic start. The owner can choose to route alerts to a Cummins authorized dealer. Monitoring does not replace physical service: oil changes, battery load tests and transfer switch checks still need a visit. Liquid-cooled and diesel models use Cummins PowerCommand control, and monitoring on those is confirmed per model. --- Ownership guide # Generator remote monitoring with Cummins ConnectCloud By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Every Cummins air-cooled home standby generator, 13kW to 20kW, has ConnectCloud monitoring built in, which Cummins lists as a $299 value at no cost with no ongoing fee. The app shows whether the house is on utility or generator power, current faults and exercise dates, and can alert your dealer as well as you. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## The problem monitoring solves A standby generator spends almost its entire life not running. It sits outside through a Texas summer and a February ice event, exercises itself briefly once a week, and is then asked to carry the house without notice. Several failure modes are silent: a battery that has aged out, a fuel supply shut off during unrelated gas work and never reopened, or a controller that has latched a fault and will not attempt a start. The controller does record what happened — it [blinks the code on a light inside the enclosure](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-generator-fault-codes) — but a light in a side yard only helps if somebody goes and looks. Remote monitoring turns those into an alert on the day they happen, to you and, if you choose, to your dealer. ## What Cummins ConnectCloud includes On the air-cooled home standby range, 13kW through 20kW, monitoring is built into the generator. There is no add-on radio to buy and no ongoing monitoring fee. Cummins lists it as a $299 value at no cost . When comparing brands, ask whether monitoring hardware and service are included or charged separately. The app is available for Apple and Android. What the home screen answers: | What it reports | Why it matters | | --- | --- | | Is the house on utility or generator power? | The first thing the home screen answers. Useful the moment you are away and the neighborhood goes dark. | | Is the generator available to power the home? | Not the same question. A unit can be sitting healthy and still be unavailable — a tripped breaker, a disabled control, a fault it has latched. | | Does it require service? | Reported against the recommended interval, with the date of the last service alongside it. | | Current alerts, including faults needing attention | The live list. This is what your dealer is also seeing. | | History of notifications and system changes | Who changed the exercise schedule, and when it last faulted. Useful in a warranty conversation. | | Last and next scheduled exercise | Changeable and overridable from the app. | | Automatic start on outage | On or off, set remotely. | | Remote start capability status | Whether the unit will accept a start command right now. | ## Dealer alerts The owner can choose to route the generator's data to a Cummins authorized dealer. Once that is set up, Cummins alerts both the homeowner and the dealer when a problem arises. For units we sell and install in DFW, we can be the dealer on the other end of that alert, so a fault that appears in April is handled on a scheduled visit in April rather than discovered during an outage. Monitoring only helps if somebody is on the receiving end of it. Confirm with whoever installs your unit that they will accept dealer alerts for it, and that they will still be servicing DFW in five years. ## The exercise schedule, from your phone The weekly self-test is the noise your neighbors hear, and the app lets you move it, for example from early Sunday to a weekday mid-morning, without a service call. See [how loud a standby generator actually is](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/how-loud-is-a-standby-generator) for the rest of that discussion, including crank-only exercise mode. You can also skip an individual exercise from the app. ## What it does not replace Monitoring tells you the machine has a problem. It does not change the oil, load-test the battery, or verify that the transfer switch actually transfers. Those are physical checks and they still need a visit — see [maintenance and service](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). It is also not a substitute for running the unit under load. A generator that has self-tested faultlessly for a year and never carried the house has demonstrated that it starts, and nothing more. ## Above 20kW The liquid-cooled and enclosed diesel ranges are built around Cummins PowerCommand electronic control, the controller family Cummins uses on its commercial generator sets, with its own self-diagnostics. What it is not is the same built-in consumer ConnectCloud radio that ships inside every air-cooled unit. Monitoring on those models is a specification question rather than something you can assume from the brochure. If remote visibility matters to you and you are buying at 25kW or above, say so before the order goes in and we will confirm exactly what the model on your quote includes. ## Questions ### Does Cummins remote monitoring cost extra? On the air-cooled home standby range, no. The hardware is built into the generator and Cummins carries it as a $299 value included at no cost, with no ongoing monitoring cost. If you are comparing brands, ask each one whether monitoring hardware and service are included or charged separately. ### What can I actually see in the app? Whether the house is on utility or generator power, whether the generator is available to run, whether it needs service, current faults, the history of past alerts and changes, the date of the last and next exercise, the date of the last service and the recommended interval, and the status of remote start. You can also change or override the exercise schedule and set the unit to start automatically when an outage occurs. ### Does my dealer get the alerts too? If you choose. Cummins lets the owner route the generator's data to a Cummins authorized dealer, and then you and the dealer are both alerted when a problem arises. A fault found by an alert can be dealt with on a scheduled visit rather than discovered during an outage. ### Do the liquid-cooled units have the same app? The liquid-cooled and diesel ranges are built around Cummins PowerCommand electronic control, which provides the self-diagnostic capability, rather than the same built-in consumer ConnectCloud radio the air-cooled range ships with. Monitoring on those units is available but it is a specification question, not a given — ask before you assume it, and we will confirm it for the exact model on your quote. ### Can I control the generator remotely, or only watch it? Both, within limits. You can change the exercise schedule, override an exercise, and set automatic start behavior. Remote start capability is reported in the app. What you cannot do from a phone is anything that requires someone to look at the machine — a low coolant alarm still needs a visit. Feature descriptions above are from Cummins dealer documentation for the 13–20kW home standby range and the Cummins [ConnectCloud page](https://www.cummins.com/en-na/na/generators/home-standby/app-remote-monitoring). Capability on liquid-cooled and diesel models differs by model and configuration — we confirm it per quote rather than generalizing. ## Already own a generator nobody is watching? We service units we did not sell. If yours has monitoring built in and it was never commissioned onto an account, that is usually a single visit to put right.

Texas Law | UTS **URL:** https://utselectricpros.com/guides/hoa-generator-rules-texas **Summary:** Texas Property Code 202.019 bars an HOA from prohibiting a standby generator. What it can still require, and the cost tests that make a restriction unenforceable. **Overview:** Under Texas Property Code section 202.019, a property owners' association may not prohibit a homeowner from installing a permanently installed standby generator rated at 7kW or more, and may regulate it only in the ways the statute lists. The association may require licensed contractors, code compliance, screening where the unit is visible, and reasonable testing hours. A location restriction is unenforceable if it raises the installation cost by more than 10 percent or the electrical and fuel line cost by more than 20 percent. In a dispute the party asserting noncompliance bears the burden of proof. --- Texas law # Can my HOA stop me installing a standby generator? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 No. Texas Property Code § 202.019 bars a Texas property owners' association from prohibiting a permanently installed standby generator rated at 7kW or more. The association can still regulate where it sits, require screening and licensed contractors, and set testing hours, within limits the statute sets out. ## What the statute actually says Texas Property Code § 202.019 — a property owners' association “A property owners' association may not adopt or enforce a dedicatory instrument provision that prohibits, restricts, or has the effect of prohibiting or restricting an owner from owning, operating, installing, or maintaining a permanently installed standby electric generator.” An association cannot write a rule banning standby generators, and cannot enforce one that already exists in its dedicatory instruments. What it may require instead is listed below. ## Does it cover your generator? It covers a unit that is: A permanently installed generator fueled by natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, diesel, biodiesel or hydrogen, fully enclosed in an integral manufacturer-supplied sound-attenuating enclosure, connected to the main panel by a manual or automatic transfer switch, and rated for a generating capacity of not less than seven kilowatts. Every Cummins home standby model we sell meets that description: the smallest is 13kW, all of them ship in the manufacturer's enclosure, and each connects through a transfer switch. A portable generator is not covered. ## What your HOA can still require The statute lets an association require the following: - Compliance with the manufacturer's specifications and with applicable codes - That all electrical, plumbing and fuel-line connections be installed only by licensed contractors - That LP gas connections comply with Railroad Commission rules - That a non-integral fuel tank comply with municipal zoning - Screening where the unit is visible from the street, visible from an adjoining residence across an unfenced side or rear yard, or visible through a wrought-iron or aluminum fence - Reasonable periodic-testing times consistent with the manufacturer's recommendations - Regulation of where on the property the generator sits ## The 10 percent and 20 percent cost limits An association may regulate where the generator sits, but a location restriction is unenforceable if it | Restriction raises | By more than | Then | | --- | --- | --- | | The cost of installing the generator | 10% | Unenforceable | | The cost of installing and connecting the electrical and fuel lines | 20% | Unenforceable | Applying the test needs a price for each part. Our quotes itemize the pad, the gas line and the electrical run separately, so if an association insists on a position that adds a long gas run or conduit pull, the line items show what that demand costs. ## If the association stalls or refuses Two more provisions matter here. Where pre-approval is required, approval “may not be withheld if the proposed installation meets or exceeds” what the association is entitled to require. And in a dispute, “the party asserting noncompliance bears the burden of proof” — it falls to the association to show what is wrong with the installation, not to you to prove it is fine. We are not attorneys, and nothing here is legal advice. We can give you a written scope and an itemized price showing what a relocation demand would cost, which is the figure the two percentage tests are measured against. Read the statute at [Texas Property Code § 202.019](https://codes.findlaw.com/tx/property-code/prop-sect-202-019/). ## Your city may not have a say either Separately from your HOA, Texas also limits what a city can require on a residential generator install. That one has a threshold and one significant exception — see [what your city can and cannot require](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). ## Questions ### Can a Texas HOA prohibit a whole house generator? No. Texas Property Code § 202.019 states that an association "a property owners' association may not adopt or enforce a dedicatory instrument provision that prohibits, restricts, or has the effect of prohibiting or restricting an owner from owning, operating, installing, or maintaining a permanently installed standby electric generator." A blanket ban is unenforceable in Texas, whatever the deed restrictions say. ### What can my HOA still require? The statute lists what it may require: compliance with the manufacturer's specifications and with applicable codes; that all electrical, plumbing and fuel-line connections be installed only by licensed contractors; that lp gas connections comply with railroad commission rules; that a non-integral fuel tank comply with municipal zoning; screening where the unit is visible from the street, visible from an adjoining residence across an unfenced side or rear yard, or visible through a wrought-iron or aluminum fence; reasonable periodic-testing times consistent with the manufacturer's recommendations; regulation of where on the property the generator sits. A location rule stops being enforceable once it raises the cost past the statute's 10 and 20 percent limits. ### My HOA says the generator has to go somewhere that costs far more. Is that allowed? Not if it is expensive enough. The statute makes a location restriction unenforceable where it "increases the cost of installing the standby electric generator by more than 10 percent" or "increases the cost of installing and connecting the electrical and fuel lines for the standby electric generator by more than 20 percent." An itemized quote, with the electrical and fuel line priced separately, is what lets you measure a relocation demand against those two limits. ### Does this apply to my generator? It applies to a permanently installed unit rated at not less than seven kilowatts, fueled by natural gas, LP, diesel, biodiesel or hydrogen, in the manufacturer's own sound-attenuating enclosure, connected through a transfer switch. Every Cummins home standby model we sell meets that description; the smallest is 13kW. A portable generator does not, and is not protected. ### The HOA has not answered my approval request. What now? Where pre-approval is required, the statute says approval "may not be withheld if the proposed installation meets or exceeds" what the association is allowed to require. And if it comes to a dispute, "the party asserting noncompliance bears the burden of proof" — the association has to show what is wrong, not the other way round. ## Get the itemized quote your HOA argument needs A free on-site survey gets you a written scope with the pad, gas line, transfer switch and electrical run priced separately.

With the optional Sound Level 2 enclosure, Cummins publishes the liquid-cooled RS25 to RS40 at 60 to 64 dB(A), RS50 to RS100 at 69.3 to 71 dB(A), and enclosed C-series diesel units at 68.4 to 74.6 dB(A), all at 23 feet. In open air sound falls about 6 dB per doubling of distance, so 65 dB(A) at 23 feet is about 59 dB at 46 feet. Noise ordinances vary by city in limit, hours and measurement point. Crank-only exercise mode on the air-cooled range runs the weekly self-test without starting the engine. --- Noise guide # How loud is a standby generator? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 A Cummins air-cooled home standby generator is published at 65 dB(A) at 23 feet at normal load, between conversation (about 50 dB) and a lawn mower (about 90 dB). Liquid-cooled units run from 60 to 71 dB(A) with the optional acoustic enclosure. Where the unit sits and when it exercises decide what the neighbors hear. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## What 65 dB sounds like Decibels are logarithmic: a 10 dB increase sounds roughly twice as loud, not ten percent louder. Cummins publishes this reference scale in its dealer material: | Sound | Approximate level | | --- | --- | | Whispering | 20 dB | | Conversation at home | 50 dB | | Cummins QuietConnect home generator | 65 dB | | Lawn mower | 90 dB | | Chain saw | 110 dB | | Jet plane | 130 dB | At 65 dB, an air-cooled unit running the house is 15 dB above conversation and 25 dB below a lawn mower on that scale. You will hear it from the patio. ## Published levels, model by model These are the figures Cummins publishes in its dealer listing guide, all measured at 23 feet. Check the enclosure column before comparing two rows: the figures are not all measured with the same enclosure. ### Air-cooled, 13kW to 20kW | Model | Rating | Sound level | Enclosure | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS13A | 13kW | 65 dB(A) | Standard, at normal load | | RS17A | 17kW | 65 dB(A) | Standard, at normal load | | RS20A | 20kW | 65 dB(A) | Standard, at normal load | | RS20AC | 20kW | 65 dB(A) | Standard, at normal load | The whole air-cooled line carries the same figure. The 13kW to 20kW units share one enclosure and one engine, so a larger air-cooled unit is not louder on paper than a smaller one. ### Liquid-cooled, 25kW to 100kW | Model | Rating | Sound level | Enclosure | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RS25 | 25kW | As low as 64 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS30 | 30kW | As low as 60 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS36 | 36kW | As low as 63 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS40 | 40kW | As low as 63 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS50 | 50kW | As low as 69.3 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS60 | 60kW | As low as 69.8 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS80 | 80kW | As low as 70.5 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | RS100 | 100kW | As low as 71 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | Every liquid-cooled figure above is an “as low as” number, and it assumes the optional Sound Level 2 enclosure. Cummins does not publish a figure for these models in the standard enclosure, so a unit ordered without it will be louder than the row says, by an amount the datasheet does not state. If noise matters on your property, specify the acoustic enclosure when the unit is ordered. ### Enclosed diesel, 20kW to 100kW | Model | Rating | Sound level | Enclosure | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | C20D6 | 20kW | As low as 68.4 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | C30D6 | 30kW | As low as 69.7 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | C50D6 | 50kW | As low as 71 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | C80D6 | 80kW | As low as 74.6 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | | C100D6 | 100kW | As low as 74.6 dB(A) | Optional Sound Level 2 | Diesel is louder than gas at the same rating: the C30D6 is published at 69.7 dB(A) against 60 dB(A) for the RS30, both with the Sound Level 2 enclosure. Diesel engine noise is also lower in pitch, and low-frequency sound carries further and passes through walls more easily than the A-weighted figure suggests. ## The number at your neighbor's fence, not at the machine Published levels are measured at 23 feet. Sound in open air falls about 6 dB every time the distance doubles, so the level at a property line or a bedroom window is lower: | At the machine (23 ft) | 46 ft | 92 ft | 150 ft | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 65 dB(A) | ~59 dB | ~53 dB | ~49 dB | | 70 dB(A) | ~64 dB | ~58 dB | ~54 dB | | 74.6 dB(A) | ~69 dB | ~63 dB | ~58 dB | Treat those as the optimistic case. A real yard has fences, masonry and a house that reflect sound, and none of that is in the arithmetic. As a guide, a 65 dB unit is about 59 dB at 46 feet in open air. ## Noise ordinances Each city sets its own limit, quiet hours and measurement point, and many measure at the property line of the receiving property rather than at the equipment. Read your city's ordinance for two things: the limit that applies to your zoning, and whether emergency equipment running during a power failure is exempt. During an outage is the only time a standby generator runs for long. Outside an outage, the unit runs only for its weekly exercise, which happens when the neighborhood is otherwise quiet. Scheduling it sensibly is the simplest way to avoid a complaint. Limits, measurement points and quiet hours vary by city, and an HOA can impose something stricter than the municipality. We cover the deed-restriction side separately in [HOA generator rules in Texas](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/hoa-generator-rules-texas), and permitting city by city in [city permit rules](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). ## Three things that change the answer more than the model does Where it sits. An air-cooled unit can be installed as close as 18 inches from the house, which is convenient and not always the quietest choice. A narrow side yard between two hard walls behaves like a speaker cabinet aimed at whoever is on the other side of the fence. An open back corner with the air discharge pointed away from the neighboring bedrooms is a different machine in practice. When it exercises. This is the easiest thing to change. Set the exercise for a weekday mid-morning. The schedule can be changed remotely at any time; see [remote monitoring](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-remote-monitoring). Whether it needs to start at all. Crank-only exercise mode turns the engine over to run diagnostics without starting it, which Cummins says reduces wear, fuel use and exercise noise. It does not replace running the machine periodically, but it makes most weekly exercises quiet. ## Summary For an air-cooled home standby unit at 65 dB(A) at 23 feet, placement and the exercise schedule make more difference to the neighbors than the choice of model. From 50kW up, and on any diesel unit, plan for noise from the start and specify the Sound Level 2 enclosure. ## Questions ### How many decibels is a home standby generator? The Cummins air-cooled range — 13kW through 20kW — is published at 65 dB(A) at 23 feet at normal load. For scale, Cummins' own reference puts conversation at home at about 50 dB and a lawn mower at about 90 dB. Decibels are logarithmic: 10 dB more sounds roughly twice as loud, so 65 dB is well above conversation and far below a mower. ### Is a generator loud enough to violate a noise ordinance? It depends on your city's ordinance: the limit, the hours and where it is measured all vary, and many ordinances measure at the receiving property line rather than at the machine. Sound in open air drops about 6 dB each time the distance doubles, so a unit published at 65 dB at 23 feet is around 59 dB at 46 feet and about 53 dB at 92 feet, before fences and walls change it. Check whether your ordinance exempts emergency equipment during an outage, and schedule the weekly exercise for a weekday mid-morning. ### Does the weekly exercise have to be noisy? No. The Cummins air-cooled units offer a crank-only exercise mode, which runs the diagnostics and turns the engine over without starting it. You get the self-test without the neighborhood hearing it. You should still run a full exercise periodically — a crank-only test does not load the machine. ### Are liquid-cooled generators louder than air-cooled? Not at the smaller sizes. With the optional Sound Level 2 enclosure, Cummins publishes the 25kW to 40kW liquid-cooled units at 60 to 64 dB(A), below the 65 dB(A) of the air-cooled range. From 50kW up the figures rise, to 69.3 dB(A) on the 50kW and 71 dB(A) on the 100kW, and the enclosed diesel units run from 68.4 to 74.6 dB(A). All of those are 'as low as' figures with the optional enclosure; Cummins does not publish them for the standard one. ### Where the generator sits changes how loud it is, doesn't it? Considerably. A unit in a side yard between two masonry walls will reflect sound toward a neighbor in a way the same unit in an open back corner will not. Distance, the direction the air discharge faces, and what stands behind it all change what a neighbor hears. We settle placement at the site survey, so raise it there. Sound levels above are the figures Cummins publishes in its dealer listing guide, measured at 23 feet. Air-cooled figures are at normal load in the standard enclosure; liquid-cooled and diesel figures are “as low as” with the optional Sound Level 2 enclosure. Distance estimates are free-field arithmetic and are illustrative, not a compliance measurement. ## Worried about a specific neighbor or a specific fence line? Bring it up at the survey. Placement is decided on site, it is free to get right before the pad is poured, and it is expensive to change afterwards.

Written to be used on any contractor, including us. **Overview:** Choosing a whole-home standby generator installer in Dallas-Fort Worth comes down to ten verifiable questions: who actually holds the Texas electrical contractor license (TECL) and can it be confirmed at TDLR; whether the seller is an authorized dealer for the brand, confirmable on the manufacturer's own locator; whether the company that sells the unit is the company that installs it or whether the work is subcontracted; whether the installation price is fixed in writing after an on-site survey rather than quoted over the phone; whether the quote itemizes equipment separately from labor; who pulls the permit and meets the inspector; whether gas meter capacity is assessed and the line pressure-tested; whether the unit is commissioned under load rather than merely started; what the maintenance interval is and who performs it; and how long the installing business has been trading. Each question has a failure mode attached, and each can be verified independently of the contractor's own marketing. UTS ElectricPros, LLC holds TECL #40628, is an authorized Cummins dealer, and installs under its assumed name Clements Electric; the gas line is run by a licensed plumber. --- Choosing a contractor # Ten questions to ask a generator installer By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 25, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Ask who holds the Texas electrical contractor license (TECL), whether the seller is an authorized dealer for the brand, and whether the selling company also does the installation. Those three, and the seven below, can each be checked without taking the contractor's word for it, including ours. ## Who actually holds the electrical license? Ask for: Ask for the TECL number and the name it is registered to, then search it at tdlr.texas.gov. In Texas an electrical contractor works under a licensed master electrician, and the license is issued to a specific legal entity. The company on your quote and the company on the license are not always the same. What goes wrong without it: You sign with a sales company that holds no license, the work is done by whoever it hired that week, and your recourse runs against a business the state has no record of licensing. Us: TECL 40628, held by UTS ElectricPros, LLC. That is the same legal entity that sells you the generator. ## Is the seller an authorized dealer for the brand? Ask for: Check the manufacturer's own dealer locator, not the seller's website. Cummins, Generac and Kohler all publish one. Factory warranty claims on a home standby unit are handled through the manufacturer's authorized dealer network, and equipment from an unauthorized reseller may not be covered. What goes wrong without it: Equipment bought through a third party with no dealer behind it. When something fails under warranty, nobody authorized is responsible for the claim. Us: Authorized Cummins Residential and Light Commercial dealer, confirmable on the Cummins dealer locator. We open and manage the Cummins claim ourselves. ## Does the company selling it also install it? Ask for: Ask directly: are your crews employees, and is the installing company the same legal entity as the selling company? A generator install is an electrical job and a gas job on a permanent piece of home equipment. Warranty on the machine and warranty on the workmanship are different promises, and they are often made by different companies. What goes wrong without it: In year three the unit will not transfer. The seller points at the installer, the installer points at the manufacturer, and the subcontractor who actually ran the gas line is no longer trading. Us: One company. UTS ElectricPros, LLC is the dealer and the license holder, and its own electricians install under its assumed name Clements Electric; we do not subcontract the electrical work. The one exception is the gas line, which a licensed plumber runs (question 7). ## Will they quote the installation without seeing the property? Ask for: Ask for the installed price over the phone and see what happens. Installed cost is driven by things nobody can see from a desk: distance from the pad to the panel, gas meter capacity, line length and sizing, service and panel condition, and what the city wants. What goes wrong without it: A confident phone number becomes a change order once someone measures the gas run. The quote you compared against was never the price. Us: We do not quote an installation sight-unseen. The survey is free, and the number you get afterwards is fixed and in writing. ## Is the quote itemized? Ask for: Ask to see equipment priced separately from labor, materials and permits. Cummins publishes a minimum advertised price and a suggested retail price for each home standby model, so the equipment line is easy to check against those figures. Most of the difference between two quotes is usually in the installation. What goes wrong without it: One number for everything. You cannot tell whether you are comparing installation scope or a markup on the equipment, and you cannot compare two bids line by line. Us: Equipment at the Cummins suggested retail price published on each model page, with no checkout fee, and installation quoted as its own line after the survey. ## Who pulls the permit and meets the inspector? Ask for: Ask whether the permit is in their name or yours, and who stands in the driveway when the inspector arrives. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 limits what a Texas municipality may impose on the installation and inspection of a residential backup system at or under 50kW, but the permit, the inspection and the utility release are still how a job gets legally closed out. What goes wrong without it: "Permit by owner" on the paperwork. You are now the responsible party for an electrical and gas installation you did not perform, and an unpermitted generator is a problem that surfaces when you sell the house. Us: We pull the permits and meet the inspector. If anything is flagged, we correct it and re-inspect at our cost. ## Has anyone checked the gas meter? Ask for: Ask what the existing meter delivers, what the unit needs under load, and whether the line will be pressure-tested. The gas work is one of the biggest swings in an installed price. A 20kW air-cooled unit burns up to 268 cubic feet of natural gas an hour at full load (Cummins spec sheet), usually more than any other gas appliance in the house, and an existing meter and line are sized for the appliances already there. What goes wrong without it: A quote that assumes the existing gas line is adequate. It is not discovered until install day, and meter upsizing runs on the utility's timeline, not yours. Us: Meter capacity and line sizing are part of the free survey, before you have a number. The gas line is run by a licensed plumber, pressure-tested and inspected: one we hire and stand behind on a turnkey job, or your own if you prefer to arrange it. ## Is the unit commissioned under load? Ask for: Ask whether the handover includes a real transfer test with the house on the generator, or only a start-up. A generator that starts proves the engine runs. The failures that matter are the transfer switch not transferring, or the set not holding load when the air conditioning restarts. What goes wrong without it: It ran fine on install day. The first genuine outage is when you discover it will not carry the house. Us: Commissioned under actual load, with a walkthrough of the controls, the exercise cycle and the maintenance interval before we leave. ## What happens in years three to five? Ask for: Ask what the maintenance interval is, who performs it, and when parts coverage and labor coverage each end. On the Cummins air-cooled range the 5 year / 2,000 hour limited warranty covers parts for the full term but travel and labor for a shorter one. After labor coverage ends, service is paid for, so it gets skipped. What goes wrong without it: An unbudgeted service bill, or no service at all until the machine fails to start during a storm. A weak starting battery is the most common cause of a no-start. Us: Published maintenance scope, performed by our own electricians on genuine Cummins parts, and Cummins factory extended warranties in 5, 7 and 10 year terms. ## How long has the installing company been trading? Ask for: Ask how long the installing company has operated in the Metroplex, and go and read its reviews rather than the testimonials on its website. A workmanship warranty is only worth as much as the company that wrote it, and a standby generator is a long-lived piece of equipment. What goes wrong without it: A young company writes a long workmanship promise and is gone before the promise runs out. Us: Clements Electric has traded in Dallas-Fort Worth since 1982 and shows 4.7 stars from 500+ reviews on its Google profile. UTS ElectricPros, LLC bought the Clements Electric business, including its reviews, and runs it as a dba. ## The three that matter most If you only ask three, ask the first three. They test whether the company selling the generator is also licensed to install it and authorized to handle its warranty. When all three answers name one business, the factory warranty, the workmanship warranty and the license belong to the same party. When they name three businesses, the work may still be good, but a warranty problem means dealing with each of them separately. ## Use it on any contractor The list works on us as well as on anyone else. A TECL number can be checked on the TDLR license search, and dealer status on the manufacturer's own locator. [★★★★★ 4.7 from 500+ Google reviews — installed by Clements Electric, DFW electricians since 1982](https://maps.google.com/maps?cid=3976497238318490434) ## Questions ### Should I use an electrician or a generator dealer? Ideally one company that is both. A dealer who subcontracts the electrical work and an electrician who buys equipment outside the authorized channel each leave a gap, one in the workmanship warranty and one in the factory warranty. A licensed electrical contractor that is also an authorized dealer for the brand owes you both warranties. ### Is a plumber or HVAC company a reasonable choice? For the gas line, a licensed plumber is who should do it, and on our turnkey jobs that is who does. The transfer switch and the service tie-in are electrical work, which in Texas requires a licensed electrical contractor. If the company you are talking to subcontracts the electrical portion, apply question 1 to whoever actually performs it. ### Why are equipment prices for the same model so close between quotes? Cummins publishes a minimum advertised price and a suggested retail price for each home standby model, and authorized dealers generally price around those figures. We sell at the Cummins suggested retail price and add no checkout fee. If an equipment price is well below the published minimum, ask where the unit was sourced and who will handle the warranty claim, which is question 2. ### How much of the total is installation? Most of it. Our estimate for a typical complete 20kW whole-house installation in Dallas-Fort Worth is $13,500 to $17,000. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A itself is $5,925.25, about 35 to 44 percent of that; the rest is the transfer switch, pad, electrical and gas work, permits and commissioning. That is why installation scope is where two quotes really differ. ### When are you not the right call? If you want a portable generator, you do not need a generator installer. Buy it, and if you want it to run house circuits, have a licensed electrician fit an interlock or a manual transfer switch. If you are outside the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, hire locally, because we install only in DFW. And if your outage history does not justify the spend, we will say so at the survey. ## Run the list on us The survey is free. Bring the ten questions. ### Rather just talk to someone?

Cost vs Risk **URL:** https://utselectricpros.com/guides/is-a-standby-generator-worth-it-in-texas **Summary:** Is a whole house generator worth the money in Texas? Real installed costs, what the grid has actually done, and the cases where the answer is no. **Overview:** Whether a whole-house standby generator is worth the cost in Texas, from a company that sells them. The estimate for a complete, permitted 20kW installation in Dallas-Fort Worth is $13,500 to $17,000; smaller homes on one air conditioning system cost less. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. In February 2021 more than 4.5 million people in Texas lost power and ERCOT shed up to 20,000 MW of firm load, according to the FERC-NERC staff report on the event. A standby generator is a strong purchase where someone depends on medical equipment, works from home, relies on a well or septic lift pump, or cannot easily leave; it is a poor one where outages are short and rare, leaving is easy, or a move is coming. A portable or a partial-house system is the middle option. --- Buying guide # Is a standby generator worth it in Texas? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 It is worth it if an outage of several days would put someone at risk or damage the house, and usually not if your outages are short and you can leave easily. A typical 20kW whole-house installation in Dallas–Fort Worth is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. We sell these, so weigh that. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Start with the real number Our estimate for a complete, permitted, whole-house 20kW installation in Dallas–Fort Worth is $13,500 to $17,000. Smaller homes on a single air conditioning system come in lower. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. [The line-by-line breakdown is here](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing). ## What Texas has actually done In February 2021 (Winter Storm Uri) more than 4.5 million people in Texas lost power, and at the worst point ERCOT ordered 20,000 MW of firm load shed, over three consecutive days of rotating outages. Those outages were ordered because generating units failed in the cold, not because ice brought lines down. The source is the November 2021 FERC-NERC staff report on the event. Most other outages are local: thunderstorms, high wind and ice bring down distribution lines on particular streets. ERCOT has also issued conservation appeals during summer peak demand. Outages here are not constant, but the long ones have tended to come in extreme heat or cold, when a house without power becomes hard to live in. ## When it is worth it Someone in the house is medically dependent on power. Oxygen concentrators, home dialysis, refrigerated medication. You work from home. A few lost days a year against a fixed one-off cost is straightforward arithmetic for most people who bill by the day. You have a well or a septic lift pump. No power means no water and no drainage. You cannot easily leave. Young children, elderly parents, animals, mobility limits. The house cannot be left unheated or uncooled. Pipes freeze. Anything with a temperature-sensitive inventory — a home lab, a wine cellar, a workshop — has a real loss number attached. ## When it is not Your outages are short and rare. If the power goes out twice a year for an hour, a generator is an expensive solution. A few battery lanterns and a plan will serve you better. You can leave easily. If staying with family or in a hotel is no hardship, staying put is worth less than the system costs. You are moving soon. A generator is generally viewed as a desirable feature here, but you will not recover the installed cost at sale. Buy it to use, not as an investment. The budget would be better spent elsewhere. If the roof is failing or the panel is unsafe, fix that first. We will tell you so. ## The middle options A [Cummins portable generator](https://utselectricpros.com/portable-generators) covers refrigeration, lights, pumps and electronics through a short outage, for well under the cost of a standby system. It will not run central air conditioning, and someone has to be home to start and connect it. A partial-house standby system is the other middle option: a smaller unit covering essential circuits and one air conditioning zone rather than the whole property, for less than a whole-house system. ## What tips it either way Ask what would happen in this house during a four-day outage in February or a three-day outage in August. If the answer is that it would be unpleasant, a portable or a partial system may be enough. If someone would be in danger, or the house would be damaged, that is the case for a standby system. If the survey suggests a portable or a partial-house system fits your property better, that is what we will quote. ## Questions ### How much does a whole house generator cost in Texas? Equipment for a 20kW unit is published on our product pages. Installed in Dallas–Fort Worth, our estimate for a typical 20kW whole-house system is $13,500 to $17,000 all in, including pad, gas work, transfer switch, permits and commissioning. The spread comes mostly from the gas line and the distance to your electrical panel. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. ### Does a generator increase home value in Texas? It is generally seen as a desirable feature, particularly since 2021, but you should not expect to recover the installed cost at sale. Buy it because you want the power, not as an investment. What does matter at closing is that the installation was permitted and inspected — an unpermitted generator causes problems, whatever it cost. ### How often does the power actually go out in DFW? It varies by street and by utility, so your own history is the best guide. If you have lost power for more than a day twice in five years, that is the pattern a standby generator is bought for. ### Is a battery system a better option than a generator? They solve different problems. Batteries are quiet and need no fuel, but their stored energy is limited, so running central air conditioning for days is beyond most home battery systems unless solar recharges them. A natural gas generator runs as long as the utility keeps pressure in the gas main; a propane unit runs as long as the tank lasts. ### Can I finance it? Yes. An installed project is financed through a home improvement lender, a home equity line, or a construction or renovation mortgage; equipment bought online on its own can be paid monthly with Affirm or Klarna at checkout. Prequalification is a soft credit check. The financing page sets out both routes. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.

How Cummins load management works, what hardware it needs, and when a bigger generator is the right answer. **Overview:** Load management, not a bigger generator, is usually the answer when a house's problem is several large loads starting at once rather than too much continuous load. Cummins air-cooled standby generators manage up to four loads through the Cummins Load Add / Load Shed device (A051C329, two 50 A loads per device), which lets a 20kW unit cover a house with two air conditioners. Moving from the 20kW air-cooled RS20A to the 25kW liquid-cooled RS25 costs more for the equipment alone, plus a heavier unit and a 2-year rather than 5-year base warranty. A bigger generator is the right answer when the continuous load exceeds the rating, when more than four loads need managing, or when no load may ever be held back. --- Sizing guide # Load management, or just buy the bigger generator? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 If the house's continuous load fits the generator and the trouble is several large loads starting at once, load management is the cheaper answer: a Cummins 20kW air-cooled unit manages up to four loads, enough for two air conditioners. Buy the bigger generator when the continuous load itself is too high. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## The two questions people confuse How much power does the house draw? is a steady-state question, and the answer is usually smaller than people expect. A large DFW home running two air conditioners, a refrigerator, lighting, networking and a pool pump is rarely pulling what its service size implies. What happens when everything restarts at once? is a different question entirely. An air-conditioning compressor draws several times its running current for a fraction of a second at start. Two of them starting together is the single largest demand the house will ever place on a generator, and it lasts under a second. Size for that instant with no management and you buy a machine that runs far below its rating for the rest of the outage. ## What intelligent load management does The control watches the generator's available capacity and restores large loads only when there is room. When the first compressor starts, the second is briefly held. When the first settles into its running current, the second is released. Both air conditioners run, started seconds apart instead of together. The Cummins implementation on the air-cooled range: | Property | What it means in practice | | --- | --- | | Control in the generator | The logic is built into the generator's controller. The loads are switched by the Cummins Load Add / Load Shed device (A051C329), which controls two 50 A loads. | | Smart | Cummins says the generator continuously monitors how much power each load needs and restores only the loads it has capacity to run. | | Responds to current | Cummins describes it as reacting to current demand rather than to engine frequency, which can only fall after the engine has started to slow. | | Up to four managed loads | Typically two AC compressors plus two of: range, pool pump, well pump, electric water heater. Two Load Add / Load Shed devices. | ## What the choice actually costs The decision usually presents itself at the top of the air-cooled range. A 20kW air-cooled unit with load management, against stepping into the liquid-cooled range at 25kW: | Option | Equipment price | | --- | --- | | RS17A — 17kW air-cooled | $5,326.86 | | RS20A — 20kW air-cooled | $5,925.25 | | RS25 — 25kW liquid-cooled | $17,622.48 | The equipment gap between the top air-cooled unit and the entry liquid-cooled unit is $11,697.23 , and that is only the machine. Liquid-cooled units are heavier, need a larger pad and carry a 2-year base warranty against 5 years on the air-cooled range, so the installed difference is wider than the price table shows. Against that, load management on the air-cooled range needs the Load Add / Load Shed devices and their wiring. A soft-start module on the largest compressor works on the same problem from the other end, by reducing the startup surge itself. Price both against the gap above. We price the soft start and the load management configuration before recommending a larger generator. ## When load management is the right answer Two air-conditioning systems in a house whose continuous draw is comfortably inside the generator's rating. This is the common two-story case, and the one load management is built for. A single large compressor plus one other heavy intermittent load — a pool pump, a well, an electric range. These never actually need to run in the same second. Any house where the sizing calculation lands just over a size boundary because of startup surge rather than running load. ## When it is not When the continuous load is too high. Load management sequences starts. It does not manufacture capacity. If the house needs more watts than the machine makes, all you get is a generator that shuffles loads for the whole outage. When more than four loads need managing. Four is the limit on the air-cooled range. A house with three AC zones, a pool, a well and an electric range has exceeded it. When nothing may ever drop. A home office with equipment that cannot tolerate being held back, medical equipment, a server rack. If a load must be continuously available, it should not be one of the managed ones — and if there are several of those, size for them. When you want every load available at once. Say so and we will size for it. It costs more, and it should be a deliberate choice. ## How to settle it for your house Start with [the sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator), which gives you a range without asking for a phone number. Then read [will a generator run my air conditioner](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/will-a-generator-run-my-air-conditioner), because in Texas the compressors decide this. The final answer comes from the survey, where we count the actual loads, read the actual nameplates, and check the gas supply that has to feed whatever we land on. It takes about forty-five minutes and it costs nothing. ## Questions ### What is intelligent load management on a generator? A control that watches what the generator can supply and restores large loads only when there is capacity for them. Instead of every air conditioner, oven and pump starting at once when the generator picks up the house, they come back in order, so a smaller generator can cover a house that would otherwise need a larger one. On the Cummins air-cooled range the generator controls up to four loads, switched through the Cummins Load Add / Load Shed device (part A051C329), each of which handles two 50 A loads. ### Is load management the same as a load-shed relay? Not quite. A plain load-shed relay simply disconnects a chosen circuit whenever the generator runs — you lose that load for the whole outage. Intelligent load management restores it as soon as there is headroom, so you usually get everything, just not all in the same instant. ### What does Cummins load management measure? Cummins describes its system as responding to current (amperage) rather than to engine frequency. A control that reacts to frequency can only act once the engine has started to slow under load; one that reads current can act on the demand itself. Compare it against any other brand's own documentation rather than a dealer's summary, ours included. ### How many loads can it manage? The Cummins air-cooled units manage up to four loads. Typically that is two air-conditioning compressors and two of the following: an electric range, a pool pump, a well pump, or an electric water heater. Each Load Add / Load Shed device (A051C329) controls two 50 A loads, so four loads take two devices. ### Is it ever the wrong answer? Yes. If the house needs more continuous capacity than the generator has — as opposed to needing help with simultaneous startups — load management does not create power that is not there. It solves a start-up problem. It does not fix an undersized machine; a house that needs more than the generator makes will spend the outage rotating loads. Load management behavior described here is from Cummins dealer documentation for the 13–20kW home standby range. Equipment prices are the published prices on this site and exclude installation. ## Been quoted a bigger generator than you expected? Bring the quote.

The Cummins RS20A and RS20AC produce 20kW on propane but 18kW on natural gas; the 13kW and 17kW units and the liquid-cooled range are rated the same on both fuels. A 20kW air-cooled unit burns 268 cubic feet of natural gas per hour at full load, so the existing gas meter may need upsizing by the utility. On propane, a 500 gallon tank (about 400 usable gallons) runs a 20kW unit for days at half load. Diesel suits commercial loads; the Cummins diesel range is 20kW to 200kW. Figures from the Cummins air-cooled spec sheet. --- Buying guide # Natural gas, propane or diesel? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Natural gas, if the house has a gas meter; propane, if it does not; diesel, mainly for commercial loads. Two things to check before you buy: the Cummins 20kW air-cooled units make 18kW on natural gas, and your gas meter may need upsizing to feed one. ## The short answer Natural gas if your house has a gas meter. Nothing to fill and no runtime limit while the main holds pressure. Gas service can fail too: in the February 2021 freeze Atmos Energy shut off gas to homes near Joe Pool Lake in Grand Prairie for about three days. Propane stored on site is the hedge against that. Propane if there is no gas main at the address, which in the Metroplex usually means a rural property. Propane does not degrade in storage. Diesel if the load is large, the runtime requirement is fixed, or code requires fuel on site. It is mainly a commercial choice; the Cummins range runs from 20kW to 200kW. ## Output on natural gas versus propane Propane carries more energy per cubic foot than natural gas. On the Cummins air-cooled range that changes the output of the 20kW units only, and their model name is the propane figure. | Model | On natural gas | On propane | Difference | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cummins RS13A | 13 kW (54.2 A) | 13 kW (54.2 A) | None | | Cummins RS17A | 17 kW (70.8 A) | 17 kW (70.8 A) | None | | Cummins RS20A | 18 kW (75 A) | 20 kW (83.3 A) | 2 kW less on gas | So a Cummins 20kW air-cooled unit on natural gas is an 18kW unit. That matters only if the house is sized against 20kW and then connected to a gas main. The liquid-cooled range, 25kW and up, is rated the same on both fuels. [Our sizing calculator asks which fuel you have](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) and sizes against the figure you will actually get. ## The gas meter problem A Cummins 20kW air-cooled generator burns 268 cubic feet of natural gas an hour at full load, published as 256,000 BTU per hour, from one appliance. Add the furnace, the water heater, the range and the dryer, and compare that to what your existing meter and service line were sized to deliver. If they were not sized with a generator in mind, the gas utility has to upsize the meter, the service line, or both. This is one of the biggest reasons two similar houses get different installation quotes, and why we do not quote installation without seeing the property. [See how installation cost actually breaks down](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing). ## Propane: how long does a tank actually last? Propane tanks are filled to about 80%, so a 500 gallon tank holds roughly 400 usable gallons. A 20kW unit burns about 3.08 gallons an hour at full load and about 1.81 gallons an hour at half load, which puts a 500 gallon tank at roughly 221 hours, about 9 days, at half load. Gallons are only half of tank sizing: a tank also has to boil liquid into vapor fast enough to keep the engine fed, and cold weather and a low tank both work against that. [Propane tank sizing for a standby generator](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/propane-tank-sizing-for-a-standby-generator) has the runtime table across all three air-cooled models and three tank sizes, the vaporization limit, and the question to put to your propane supplier. ## Where diesel makes sense Diesel gives the highest power density and fuel you control, stored on site and independent of any utility, which is why clinics, restaurants and cold storage choose it. Some life-safety applications require fuel stored on site. The trade is maintenance. Diesel degrades, absorbs water and grows biological contamination if it sits, so a set that runs rarely needs its fuel managed rather than simply topped up. [That is part of what a service visit covers](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). [See the diesel range, 20kW to 200kW →](https://utselectricpros.com/light-commercial-generators) ## One decision that is not about fuel Whichever fuel you choose, size the generator against your air conditioning first. The compressor startup surge sets the requirement more than square footage does. Consumption and output figures on this page are from the Cummins published specification sheet for the air-cooled Connect range. [Download it from Cummins](https://mart.cummins.com/imagelibrary/data/assetfiles/0058055.pdf). ## Questions about fuel ### Which fuel is best for a standby generator in Dallas-Fort Worth? Natural gas, for most homes that already have a gas meter. There is no tank to fill and no runtime limit as long as the utility keeps pressure in the main. That is not guaranteed: in the February 2021 freeze Atmos Energy shut off gas to homes near Joe Pool Lake in Grand Prairie for about three days. Propane is the answer when there is no gas main at the address. Diesel is mainly a commercial choice; the Cummins diesel range starts at 20kW. ### Does a generator make less power on natural gas than on propane? On some models, yes. The Cummins RS20A produces 20kW on LP but 18kW on natural gas — 83.3 amps versus 75 amps at 240 volts. The 13kW and 17kW units are rated the same on both fuels, and the Cummins liquid-cooled range has no natural gas derate. The 20kW model name is the propane figure, so on natural gas size against 18kW. ### How long will a 500 gallon propane tank run a whole house generator? About 221 hours at half load, which is roughly 9 days, and is the more realistic planning figure because a house rarely holds a generator at full load for long. At full load the same tank gives around 130 hours. Whether the tank can vaporize fuel fast enough in a freeze is a separate question, covered on the propane tank sizing page. ### Can my existing gas meter handle a generator? Not always. A Cummins 20kW air-cooled unit burns 268 cubic feet of natural gas per hour at full load, published as 256,000 BTU per hour. Add the furnace, water heater, range and dryer, and the existing meter or service line may not have the capacity; then the gas utility has to upsize the meter, the service line or both, on its own timeline. It is one of the biggest reasons two installations at similar houses are priced differently. ### Can I switch fuels later? The air-cooled Cummins units are field-selectable between natural gas and propane vapor, and they ship set to natural gas. The change is made by a qualified technician, and the fuel line itself is work for a licensed plumber or propane company. On the 20kW units the output changes with the fuel, so a unit sized tightly on propane may not cover the same loads on natural gas. ## Not sure which applies to you?

Cummins says every character of the model number is significant and the last character is the specification letter, which is needed to get the correct parts. In every Cummins rating table the number before the letters matches the rated output: 2.8 is 2,800 watts, 2.5 is 2,500 watts, 4.0 or 4 is 4,000 watts, 3.6 is 3,600 watts. Cummins lists the series as follows: HGJBB is the earlier QG 2800 and QG 2500 LP; HGLAA is the QG 2800i and 2500i LP; HGLBA is the QG 4000i; KY (model codes KYFA and KYFR) is the QG 4000 and QG 3600 LP; HGJAA and HGJAB are the QG 5500 and QG 7000 families, not 2.5kW units. Cummins publishes no decoder for the series letters or the numeric suffix, and no statement that an HGLAA is a drop-in for an older unit. The 2.8HGJBB measures 22 x 16.3 x 12.8 inches and the 2.8HGLAA 22.0 x 16.3 x 13.4 inches; the QG 4000 KYFA is 30.0 x 19.7 x 14.4 inches. UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer, sells the 2.8HGLAA-8311 at $4,436.53, the 2.5HGLAA-8310 at $4,730.72 and the 4KYFA-6747 at $4,202.65, shipped nationwide. --- RV generators # Reading an Onan RV generator model number By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published October 9, 2026 The model number is on the serial number tag on the generator. The number at the front is the output (2.8 is 2,800 watts), the letters identify the series, and the last letter is the spec letter. To replace a unit, match the output, the fuel and the compartment dimensions. ## What Cummins says about the model number - Where it is. “Each Cummins Generator has a model/spec number description, which is shown on the serial number tag attached to the generator.” - Every character counts. “Every character of the model number is significant. The last character of the model number is the specification letter which is important for obtaining the correct parts.” - The leading number. Cummins does not define it in words, but in every Cummins rating table it matches the rated output: 2.8HGJBB is 2,800 watts, 2.5HGLAA is 2,500 watts, 4KYFA is 4,000 watts and 3.6KYFA is 3,600 watts. Cummins does not publish what each of the series letters or the numeric suffix means, so we do not guess. What it does publish is which product each series code belongs to. ## Series code to Cummins product | Series in the model number | Cummins Onan product | | --- | --- | | HGJBB | QG 2800 / 2800 EVAP (and QG 2500 LP) | | HGLAA | QG 2800i / 2500i LP | | HGLBA | QG 4000i | | KY | QG 4000 / 3600 LP (model codes KYFA and KYFR) | | KV, KVC, KVD | Earlier QG 2500 LP, QG 2800 / 2800 EVAP, QG 2800 RM / 2500 RM LP | | HGJAA | QG 5500 EFI / 7000 EFI | | HGJAB | QG 5500 / 5500 EVAP / 5500 LP / 7000 / 7000 EVAP / 6500 LP | So an HGJAA is not a small generator. If a listing or a search says “2.5HGJAA”, read the tag again: the 2,500 watt LP units Cummins lists are the 2.5HGJBB and the 2.5HGLAA. ## Output and size to match when replacing All of these are 120 volt, single phase. The size is length x width x height in inches. | Model | Product | Fuel | Output | Size (in) | Weight | Sound | Cummins source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2.8HGJBB-1120A | QG 2800 (HGJBB) | Gasoline | 2,800 W, 23.3 A | 22 x 16.3 x 12.8 | 125 lb | 70 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet NAS-5501c-EN; operator manual A031C171 | | 2.5HGJBB-1121A | QG 2500 LP (HGJBB) | LP vapor | 2,500 W, 20.8 A | 22 x 16.3 x 12.8 | 125 lb | 70 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet NAS-5501c-EN | | 2.8HGLAA-8311 | QG 2800i (HGLAA) | Gasoline | 2,800 W, 23.3 A | 22.0 x 16.3 x 13.4 | 113 lb | 66 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet S-6773 (04/24) | | 2.5HGLAA-8310 | QG 2500i LP (HGLAA) | LP vapor | 2,500 W, 20.8 A | 22.0 x 16.3 x 13.4 | 113 lb | 66 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet S-6773 (04/24) | | 4KYFA26100 | QG 4000 (KY) | Gasoline | 4,000 W, 33.3 A | 30.0 x 19.7 x 14.4 | 178 lb | 68 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet A-1399p (8/15) | | 3.6KYFA26120 | QG 3600 LP (KY) | LP vapor | 3,600 W, 30.0 A | 30.0 x 19.7 x 14.4 | 178 lb | 68 dB(A) at 10 ft, half load | Spec sheet A-1399p (8/15) | | 4.0HGLBA-8305A | QG 4000i (HGLBA) | Gasoline | 4,000 W, 33.3 A | 30.0 x 20.3 x 14.0 | 149 lb | 66.5 dB(A) | Spec sheet S-6759 (04/24) | Cummins’ own documents differ slightly on the HGLAA: operator manual A075S349 gives 110 lb and a width of 16.9 inches, the spec sheet 113 lb and 16.3 inches. Measure your compartment rather than relying on either. ## Which one fits my coach? - Read the tag. Note the full model number and the spec letter. - Match the fuel. A gasoline coach takes a gasoline unit; an LP-fed one takes the LP model, which is rated lower (2,500 W against 2,800 W, 3,600 W against 4,000 W). - Match the output. Going from a 2,800 W unit to a 4,000 W one changes the size class: the QG 4000 is 30 inches long against 22 for the QG 2800 family. - Measure the compartment. Cummins publishes no drop-in statement between generations. Its mounting kit A043F935 is listed as a “retro adapter from KV”, the earlier series, and the HGLAA is 0.6 inch taller than the HGJBB on the spec sheets. - Check the installation manual for the new model’s mounting, fuel and exhaust requirements before ordering. ## The models we sell in these series | Model | Fuel | Output | Cummins part | Price | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2.5HGLAA-8310 | LP Vapor | 2,500 W, 120 V | A074X612 | $4,730.72 | | 2.8HGLAA-8311 | Gasoline | 2,800 W, 120 V | A074X611 | $4,436.53 | | 3.6KYFA-26120 | LP Vapor | 3,600 W, 120 V | A055E865 | $5,026.73 | | 4.0HGLBA-8306 | Gasoline | 4,000 W, 120 V | A073X541 | $4,604.64 | | 4KYFA-6747 | Gasoline | 4,000 W, 120 V | A055E867 | $4,202.65 | Prices are the Cummins suggested retail price, and RV generators ship nationwide. The full range, including the dual-fuel and QD diesel models, is on [Cummins Onan RV generators](https://utselectricpros.com/rv-generators). ## Questions ### Where is the model number on an Onan RV generator? On the serial number tag attached to the generator, which Cummins also calls the nameplate or dataplate. It carries the model number and spec, the serial number, and the electrical ratings. Write the full model number down, including the letter at the end. ### What does the last letter of the model number mean? It is the specification letter. Cummins says every character of the model number is significant and that the last one is the spec letter, which is what decides the correct parts and the correct manual for your unit. ### What is an Onan 2.5HGJAA? Cummins does not list one. On the Cummins RV generator manuals page, HGJAA is the QG 5500 EFI and QG 7000 EFI series, and HGJAB is the QG 5500, 6500 LP and 7000 family. A 2,500 watt LP unit of the earlier QG 2800 generation is listed as the 2.5HGJBB-1121A, and the current one as the 2.5HGLAA. Check the tag: the letters after the number are what identify the series. ### Will a 2.8HGLAA fit where my old 2.8HGJBB was? Compare the numbers before you buy. Cummins gives the HGJBB as 22 x 16.3 x 12.8 inches and the HGLAA as 22.0 x 16.3 x 13.4 inches, so the HGLAA is 0.6 inch taller on those sheets. Cummins does not publish a drop-in statement, and its mounting kit A043F935 is described as a retro adapter from the older KV series. Measure the compartment and check the fuel, the mounting and the exhaust routing against the installation manual. ### What is a 4KYFA? The Cummins Onan QG 4000, a 4,000 watt, 120 volt gasoline generator rated at 33.3 amps. The LP version is the 3.6KYFA at 3,600 watts. The 4KYFA-6747 we sell is $4,202.65.

A Cummins RS20A burns 3.08 gallons per hour at full load and 1.81 gallons per hour at half load, which is the more realistic planning figure because a house rarely holds a generator at full load for long. On that basis a 500 gallon tank runs a 20kW unit about 221 hours at half load and about 130 hours at full load; a 250 gallon tank runs about 110 hours at half load. Volume is only half of tank sizing. Propane is stored as liquid and must boil into vapor before the engine can burn it, at the wetted surface inside the tank, and that has a maximum continuous rate. Cold slows the boil and a tank low on liquid has less wetted surface, so the two compound during exactly the multi-day winter event the generator was bought for. A tank can hold plenty of gallons and still fail to keep up. The question to ask a propane supplier is the continuous vaporization rate at winter temperature against the generator's full-load demand, not simply a gallon figure. Consumption figures from Cummins Power Generation spec sheet NAS-6254-EN (A056T581), RS13A / RS17A / RS20A / RS20AC. The propane line from the tank regulator to the generator is installed by a licensed propane company or plumber, not by electricians. --- Fuel # What size propane tank does a standby generator need? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 For a Cummins 20kW unit, a 500 gallon tank (about 400 usable gallons) runs roughly 221 hours at half load and a 250 gallon tank roughly 110 hours. The tank also has to vaporize propane fast enough on a cold night, which is a separate check with your propane supplier. This page assumes propane is already the answer. If you are still deciding, that is a different question — [natural gas vs propane vs diesel](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel) covers it, and for most DFW homes with a meter at the house the answer is natural gas. ## Start with 80 percent Propane tanks are filled to about 80% of their nameplate size , because liquid propane expands as it warms and the tank needs room for that. Every runtime number below is calculated on that basis. A 500 gallon tank is a 400 gallon tank for planning, a 250 is a 200, and a 1000 is an 800. ## How long each tank actually runs Consumption at each load step is published by Cummins. These are those figures converted to gallons, against the three tank sizes normally offered. | Model | Load | Gal/hr | 250 gal tank | 500 gal tank | 1000 gal tank | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cummins RS13A 13kW on LP | Half | 1.40 | 143 hrs ~6 days | 285 hrs ~11.9 days | 571 hrs ~23.8 days | | Full | 2.28 | 88 hrs ~3.7 days | 175 hrs ~7.3 days | 351 hrs ~14.6 days | | | Cummins RS17A 17kW on LP | Half | 1.73 | 116 hrs ~4.8 days | 231 hrs ~9.6 days | 462 hrs ~19.3 days | | Full | 2.80 | 71 hrs ~3 days | 143 hrs ~6 days | 285 hrs ~11.9 days | | | Cummins RS20A 20kW on LP | Half | 1.81 | 110 hrs ~4.6 days | 221 hrs ~9.2 days | 441 hrs ~18.4 days | | Full | 3.08 | 65 hrs ~2.7 days | 130 hrs ~5.4 days | 260 hrs ~10.8 days | | Calculated at 80% fill and 36.39 cubic feet per gallon, the conversion printed on the Cummins sheet. Consumption figures are the published LP values at each load step. Plan on the half-load row. A correctly sized unit spends most of an outage below its rating. The full-load row is the shortest runtime you should expect. On those figures a 250 gallon tank gives a 20kW unit about 4.6 days at half load before a delivery is needed. Weigh that against how quickly a propane delivery can reach the property during a regional storm. ## Gallons are only half of it Everything above is a volume question. The second constraint is a rate : how fast the tank can turn liquid into vapor, which can leave a generator unable to hold load with fuel still in the tank. Propane is stored as liquid. It has to boil into vapor before the engine can burn any of it, and that boiling happens at the wetted surface inside the tank, the area where liquid is touching steel. It has a maximum continuous rate, and three things push that rate down: - Cold slows the boil. Vaporization depends on heat moving from the tank wall into the liquid, and a February night is short of heat. - A low tank has less wetted surface. Down to the last quarter, the liquid touches much less steel than it did full. - A physically small tank has less surface to begin with. Those three line up during a multi-day freeze: the tank is colder than when it started and emptier than when it started, and the generator has been running the whole time. That is where a volume-only calculation fails. The question to ask your propane supplier. Ask for the continuous vaporization rate of the tank they are proposing, at winter design temperature, against the generator’s full-load BTU demand. Not the gallon capacity, the rate. What a freeze does to the rest of the installation — the battery, the oil, the cold weather kit — is a separate subject and has [its own page](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cold-weather-generator-operation). ## Above ground or buried Buried holds temperature. Ground temperature barely moves compared with air temperature, so an underground tank vaporizes more consistently in a freeze. For generator duty that is the main reason to consider burying one. Above ground is cheaper and easier to live with. Lower install cost, no cathodic protection, simpler service, and you can see the gauge and the fittings. It also sits in the weather, which is the trade. Either way the tank has its own clearances from the house, from ignition sources and from the generator, set by the propane company that installs it. The propane company or a licensed plumber also runs the [pipe from the regulator to the generator](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator), which has to carry the full-load BTU demand at the pressure the unit needs; an undersized run produces the same symptom as an undersized tank. Our electricians do not do gas work. ## What this changes about the generator On some models the generator makes more power on propane than on natural gas. The [RS20A](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs20a) is the example — it is a 20kW unit on LP and a 18kW unit on natural gas. If you are on propane you get the larger figure, which is the one in the model name. That matters here because the tank is sized against consumption, and consumption is a function of the load you actually put on it rather than the badge on the enclosure. If you have not settled the size yet, the [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) comes first — the kW answer is what the tank gets sized against. ## Questions ### What size propane tank do I need for a whole house generator? For a Cummins 20kW unit, at half load a 500 gallon tank gives roughly 9.2 days and a 250 gallon tank roughly 4.6 days, from the published consumption at 80 percent fill. Pick the tank against the longest outage you want to ride out without a delivery, then confirm with the propane supplier that the tank can vaporize fast enough at winter temperature. ### Why does a 500 gallon tank only hold 400 gallons? Because liquid propane expands as it warms, so the tank is filled to about 80% to leave room for that expansion. Every runtime figure should therefore be calculated on 80% of the nameplate size. A 500 gallon tank is a 400 gallon tank for planning purposes, a 250 is a 200, and a 1000 is an 800. ### How long will a 500 gallon propane tank run a generator? About 130 hours at full load on a 20kW unit, and about 221 hours at half load — roughly 9.2 days. Half load is the more realistic planning figure, because a correctly sized generator spends most of an outage below its rating. ### Can a propane tank be too small even when it is full? Yes. Propane leaves the tank as vapor, boiled off the liquid at the wetted surface inside the tank, and that has a maximum rate. A physically small tank has less wetted surface, cold slows the boil, and a tank down to its last quarter has less liquid touching steel. All three can line up during a winter outage, and a tank with fuel in it can then fail to deliver vapor fast enough to hold the engine at load. ### What should I ask the propane supplier? Ask for the continuous vaporization rate of the tank they are proposing, at winter design temperature, against the generator's full-load BTU demand. Not the gallon capacity, the rate. ### Above ground or underground? Underground tanks hold a steadier temperature, which helps vaporization in a freeze, and they are invisible. They cost more to install, need cathodic protection, and a leak is harder to find. Above ground is cheaper, easier to service and easier to inspect, but it sits in the weather. For generator duty, the buried tank's steadier temperature helps most during a freeze. ### Do I need propane at all if I have a gas meter? Usually not. Natural gas needs no tank or delivery, and runs as long as the utility keeps pressure in the main, which is not guaranteed: in the February 2021 freeze Atmos Energy shut off gas to homes near Joe Pool Lake in Grand Prairie for about three days. Propane is the answer when there is no gas main at the address. Which fuel to choose is a separate question and it has its own page. LP consumption figures from Cummins Power Generation spec sheet NAS-6254-EN (A056T581), RS13A / RS17A / RS20A / RS20AC, retrieved 2026-08-19. Runtimes are calculated from those figures at 80% tank fill and are planning estimates, not guarantees — actual consumption depends on the load you run. ## Not sure what size tank your place needs We size the generator and tell you the full-load demand in BTU, which is the number your propane supplier needs to size the tank and its vaporization rate against. ### Rather just talk to someone?

When you need one, and what it changes. **Overview:** A service-entrance rated automatic transfer switch is listed for use as the service disconnecting means, so it can be installed between the utility meter and the panel and serve as the home's service disconnect, rather than sitting downstream of an existing one. A non service-entrance switch must be installed after an existing service disconnect. The rating changes the wiring at the service, not the generator. A whole-house switch carries the full service, so a 200 amp service takes a 200 amp switch whether the generator is 13kW or 20kW. The Cummins range includes 7 service-entrance rated configurations and 31 non service-entrance configurations across the RA, RA CSA, OTEC families. --- Electrical # Service-entrance transfer switches, explained By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 20, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 A service-entrance rated transfer switch is listed to be the home's service disconnect, so it can be installed between the utility meter and the panel. A switch without the rating has to go after an existing disconnect. Which one you need depends on how your meter and panel are arranged, not on the generator. ## What the rating means A service-entrance rated transfer switch is listed for use as the service disconnecting means: the device that cuts all utility power to the house. A switch without that rating is not listed for the job. It has to sit downstream of a disconnect that already exists. Neither is better in general; how your meter and panel are already arranged decides it. One code point makes the rating more useful than it used to be. Since the 2020 edition, the National Electrical Code (section 230.85) has required one- and two-family dwellings to have an emergency disconnect in a readily accessible outdoor location. A service-entrance rated switch mounted outside, and marked as required, is one way to meet that. Which edition of the code applies depends on your city. ## Why it changes the install rather than the generator Service-entrance rating has nothing to do with the generator. The same 20kW set runs behind either one. What changes is the wiring between your meter and your panel. - With an SE-rated switch , the switch can become the main disconnect. Service conductors land in it, and it feeds the panel. One enclosure does two jobs. - Without one , the existing main disconnect stays where it is and the switch goes after it. If your panel has no separate upstream disconnect, one may have to be added — which is another enclosure, another set of conductors and more labor. In that second case an SE-rated switch can make the whole job cheaper despite costing more as a part, which is why comparing switch prices on their own can mislead. ## The switch is sized to your house, not your generator A whole-house transfer switch carries the full electrical service, because when the utility is up that is what flows through it. A 200 amp service needs a 200 amp switch whether the generator behind it is 13kW or 20kW. A switch that feeds only an essential-circuits subpanel is different: it is sized to that subpanel's feeder, and it is usually a non service-entrance switch downstream of the main. ## What we stock Across the Cummins range we carry 7 service-entrance rated configurations and 31 that are not, spanning the RA, RA CSA, OTEC families. The rating is a per-configuration attribute rather than a family-wide one, so several families offer both. Every configuration and every price is on [Cummins automatic transfer switches, 100A to 600A](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches) — this page is about which kind you need, not which one to buy. Some generators ship with one in the box. The [RS20AC](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs20ac) includes a 200A service-entrance rated, NEMA 3R automatic transfer switch at $6,868.48, the generator and switch together. ## What it changes about permits Work at the service entrance is service work, which usually means the utility has to pull and reset the meter and the inspection has to be passed before power is restored. We schedule it, but it is a different inspection from a downstream switch. Since September 2025 a qualified third party can perform the review and inspection instead of the city, which changes the timeline — [what your city can and cannot require](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas) sets out how that works. ## Questions ### What does service-entrance rated actually mean? It means the switch is listed for use as the service disconnecting means, the device that cuts all utility power to the house, so it can be installed between the meter and the panel. A non service-entrance switch is not listed for that and has to sit downstream of an existing service disconnect. The difference is where the switch goes and how much rework the meter and panel need. ### Do I need a service-entrance rated switch? It depends on your existing service, not on your generator. If your panel already has a separate main disconnect ahead of it, a standard switch downstream is perfectly correct and usually cheaper. If your main breaker is inside the panel and there is no separate disconnect ahead of it, a service-entrance rated switch is often the simpler way to do it. We settle this at the survey by looking at the actual meter and panel arrangement. ### Is a service-entrance switch more expensive? The switch itself costs more. Whether the job does is a different question — an SE-rated switch can remove the need for a separate disconnect and reduce what the electrician reworks at the meter, so on some houses it lowers the total. Every configuration and price is published on the transfer switch pages, so you can compare the two paths. ### Which Cummins switches are service-entrance rated? Across the range we stock 7 service-entrance rated configurations and 31 that are not, spanning the RA, RA CSA, OTEC families. Service-entrance rating is a per-configuration attribute rather than a per-family one, so a family can offer both. Each family page states which of its configurations carry the rating. ### Is the switch sized to the generator or the house? For a whole-house switch, the house. It carries the full service, because when the utility is up everything the house uses flows through it, so a 200 amp service takes a 200 amp switch whether the generator behind it is 13kW or 20kW. A switch that feeds only an essential-circuits subpanel is sized to that subpanel's feeder instead. ## We read your meter and panel before specifying anything Which switch you need is a question about the house, and we answer it at the free survey. ### Rather just talk to someone?

The solar must connect on the utility side of the transfer switch. Why, what each utility allows, and what it costs. **Overview:** When a standby generator and automatic transfer switch are added to a home with grid-tied solar, the solar must connect on the utility side of the transfer switch, between the utility meter and the switch, so the generator can never energize the solar inverters. If the solar connects on the generator side, the inverters treat the running generator as the grid, reconnect after their IEEE 1547 return-to-service delay (5 minutes by default), and push surplus power back into the generator. Cummins describes that as hazardous and potentially damaging for both the generator and the inverter. The meter rules depend on the utility, not the city: Oncor, CoServ and TNMP require a visible, lockable, labeled disconnect within 10 feet of the meter, Denton Municipal Electric requires one within 4 feet, and Oncor, CoServ and DME reserve the meter socket for utility metering. With this layout the solar is off while the generator runs; solar production during an outage needs a battery system designed for it. The Cummins RS30 30kW liquid-cooled generator is $18,812.69 for the equipment, the Cummins suggested retail price. Installation on a solar home is quoted after a site survey. --- Electrical # Adding a standby generator to a home with solar panels By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 30, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 The solar has to connect on the utility side of the automatic transfer switch, between the meter and the switch, and never on the side the generator powers. Connected on the generator side, the inverters can push power back into the generator during an outage, which Cummins describes as hazardous and potentially damaging to both. ## The job behind this guide A Dallas-Fort Worth homeowner with grid-tied rooftop solar asked us to add a Cummins [RS30](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs30), a 30kW liquid-cooled whole-home generator, with an automatic transfer switch. The design question was where the solar sits relative to the switch, and every solar home raises it. ## Grid-tied inverters are built to follow the grid A grid-tied inverter synchronizes to the voltage and frequency it sees and exports into them. It is also required to stop when the grid stops. NREL's [primer on IEEE 1547-2018](https://docs.nlr.gov/docs/fy22osti/77782.pdf) puts that at going offline "within 2 seconds" of the grid failing, followed by a return-to-service delay that "is by default set to 5 minutes" once power comes back. That design protects line workers. But the inverter cannot tell whether the steady 240 volts at 60 hertz on its terminals comes from the utility or from a generator in your side yard. ## What happens with the solar on the generator side Most residential solar connects through a breaker in the main panel. Install a transfer switch ahead of that panel and the solar is now downstream of the switch, on the generator side. In an outage the generator starts, the switch transfers, the inverters see what looks like a restored grid, and five minutes later they resume exporting. Any time the array makes more than the house is using, the surplus runs backward into the generator. "If the solar panels and the generator are not electrically isolated, the AC inverter associated with the solar panels may attempt to feed power back to the generator, creating a hazardous and potentially damaging situation for both the generator and the inverter." Cummins, [What is a Transfer Switch? Types and Applications](https://www.cummins.com/en-na/generators/related-products/transfer-switches/transfer-switch-types-applications) The inverter makers agree. Enphase's technical brief on AC coupling says: "Do not connect the Enphase Microinverters to the output of an engine generator. This can cause damage to the microinverters and the generator." SolarEdge supports generators only in specific designed configurations, and its [alternative power source application note](https://knowledge-center.solaredge.com/sites/kc/files/se-inverter-support-of-voltage-sources.pdf) caps solar at 35 percent of generator capacity "to protect the generator(s) and avoid damage." A standard ATS paired with a standard grid-tied inverter has none of those controls. ## The layout we install | From the street | Role | | --- | --- | | Utility meter | Utility metering only. Nothing else goes inside it. | | Solar disconnect and supply-side connection | The solar joins the utility conductors here, ahead of the transfer switch. | | Service-entrance rated ATS | The home's main disconnect. Selects utility or generator, never both. | | Main panel | House circuits, fed by whichever source the switch selects. | | Generator | Lands on the ATS generator terminals only. | When the utility fails, the switch disconnects the utility side, and the solar goes with it. The inverters see a dead grid and stay down. The generator carries the house with no second source pushing against it. When the utility restores power, the switch transfers back and the solar resumes after its delay. Tesla uses the same principle for its batteries: its [Powerwall and generator guidance](https://www.tesla.com/support/energy/powerwall/learn/combining-systems) has the Powerwall system "installed between the utility meter and the generator transfer switch." In code terms this is a supply-side source connection. The 2023 National Electrical Code permits it in Section 705.11, which points to Section 230.82(6): a disconnect listed as suitable for service equipment, with overcurrent protection. TDLR adopted the [2026 NEC](https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/news/rulemaking/2026/09/01/commission-adopts-rules-12/) statewide effective September 1, 2026, and cities adopt editions on their own schedules, so we confirm the governing edition for each permit. ## What your utility will and will not allow "The utility side" does not mean inside the meter, and the rules for the meter are set by the utility that owns it, not by your city. Oncor, which delivers power to most Dallas-Fort Worth addresses, is specific. Its [Electric Service Guidelines](https://www.oncor.com/content/dam/oncorwww/documents/new-construction/construction-guidelines/Electric%20Service%20Guidelines%20Book.pdf) reserve the meter socket "exclusively for Company metering" and bar meter collars and "other devices" from it. They require "a Visible Lockable Labeled AC Disconnect (VLLD)" between the meter and all distributed generation, generally within 10 feet of the meter. They state that "Molded-case breakers are not considered to be an acceptable VLLD." They also require the generator transfer switch to be "installed on the load side of the meter base." So the solar connection is made in its own enclosure just downstream of the meter, with its own disconnect, and ahead of the ATS. Other utilities differ in the details. CoServ and TNMP use the same 10-foot, visible, lockable disconnect, and TNMP also rejects molded-case breakers. Denton Municipal Electric wants its disconnect within 4 feet of the meter, allows line-side taps only through connectors in a junction box, and requires sealed engineering drawings. Garland Power & Light caps residential solar at 10 kW. HILCO and Navarro County cooperatives allow a line-side connection after the meter with their pre-approval. Tri-County Electric Cooperative is the exception that changes the design: its distributed generation checklist says it "does not accept line-side taps," so on a Tri-County home the connection method is agreed with Tri-County in writing before we quote. Tri-County also requires a UL 1008 transfer switch within 6 feet of the meter, with no interlock kits or meter-mount switches. Each of our [city pages](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas) lists the utilities serving that city and what each one publishes. Where a utility publishes nothing on a point, we get its answer in writing rather than borrow another utility's rule. ## The tradeoff With this layout the solar is off whenever the generator is running. The generator is sized to carry the house by itself, and the solar resumes after its delay once the grid returns. If producing solar during an outage matters to you, that is a battery design, not a generator design, and we will quote the two side by side. ## Equipment and price The Cummins [RS30](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs30) is a 30kW liquid-cooled standby generator at $18,812.69 for the equipment, the Cummins suggested retail price. The transfer switch is sized to your service, not the generator, and is chosen from the [Cummins transfer switch range](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches). Why the service-entrance rating matters here is covered in [service-entrance transfer switches](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/service-entrance-transfer-switches). Installation on a solar home, including the supply-side solar connection, is quoted in writing after a site survey, because it depends on how the solar connects today. ## Questions ### Can a standby generator and solar panels be on the same house? Yes. The rule is that the solar connects on the utility side of the generator's transfer switch, so the two never feed the same circuits at the same time. If the solar currently connects through a breaker in the main panel, the generator job usually includes moving that connection. ### Why can't the solar stay in the main panel? Because once a transfer switch goes in ahead of the panel, anything in that panel is on the generator side. In an outage the inverters see the generator's voltage and frequency, conclude the grid has returned, and start exporting after their return-to-service delay. Whenever the panels make more than the house uses, the surplus flows back into the generator. ### Does my solar work during an outage with this design? No. The transfer switch isolates the solar together with the utility, and the inverters stay off until the utility restores power. That is deliberate. Solar that produces during an outage needs a battery system built for it, such as Tesla Powerwall or Enphase with an IQ System Controller, which is a separate design and a separate quote. ### Is there a 28kW air-cooled Cummins? No. The largest air-cooled Cummins home standby generator is the 20kW RS20A ($5,925.25 equipment). Above 20kW the Cummins home standby range is liquid-cooled: RS25, RS30 and up. ### Does moving the solar connection affect my solar warranty? It touches the solar installer's work, so we coordinate with them before we change anything, and with your electric utility, which reviews distributed generation interconnections. Ask your solar installer what their warranty says about modifications before the survey. ## We look at the solar before we price the generator Where your solar connects today decides the transfer switch, the disconnect and most of the labor.

The Cummins terms, counted from the date the unit was first started up: | Unit | Years 1 and 2 | Years 3 to 5 | | --- | --- | --- | | Air-cooled RS13A, RS17A, RS20A, RS20AC | Parts, labor and travel | Parts only, up to 2,000 hours | | Liquid-cooled RS25 to RS150 | 2 year base warranty | Extended warranty only | | RA and RSS transfer switches | Parts, labor and travel | Extended warranty only | Cummins asks the owner to notify a Cummins dealer within 30 days of discovering a failure, and excludes, among other things, lack of maintenance, late servicing and unauthorized repair. The full terms and the extended options are on [warranty and service](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty). As the dealer, we authorize Cummins warranty work ourselves and manage the claim. ## Before you call - Model and serial number , from the nameplate on the unit. - The start-up date. The warranty clock runs from it, and Cummins asks for evidence of it. - The fault code , if the controller is showing one. [How to read it](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-generator-fault-codes), and which ones you can safely check yourself. - The service record. It is what a warranty claim is checked against. If it will not crank, the battery is the first thing to check: [generator battery maintenance](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-battery-maintenance). ## The Cummins service intervals From the Cummins operator manual for the air-cooled RS13A to RS20AC (A053X174), which says to “perform all service at the time period indicated, or after the number of operating hours indicated, whichever comes first”: | Item | Interval | | --- | --- | | Check engine oil level | Monthly without outages; daily during an outage | | Change engine oil and oil filter | First 25 and 100 hours, then every 200 hours or 2 years | | Adjust valve clearance | First 25 and 100 hours, then every 200 hours, by an authorized Cummins technician | | Replace engine air filter | Every 200 hours or 2 years; more often in dusty conditions | | Clean and check starting battery | Every 200 hours | | Complete system test | Every 200 hours or 2 years, by an authorized Cummins technician | On the liquid-cooled RS25 to RS40, the Cummins manual (A045R242) sets oil and filters after the first 50 hours and then every 200 hours or 12 months, and the air cleaner at 100 hours. A multi-day outage can bring a 200-hour interval forward by months, which is why the oil check goes to daily while the power is out. The parts for an air-cooled visit are in the Cummins preventative maintenance kit, part A054H068 ([accessories and parts](https://utselectricpros.com/accessories)), and what a visit covers is on [generator service and maintenance](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). ## Other brands We do electrical work and general maintenance on other brands of standby generator, after inspecting the installation first. Warranty work on another manufacturer goes through that manufacturer’s dealer network, so for a unit still under its warranty, call its dealer. ## City by city A repair that turns into a replacement is a new installation, with a permit. What each city publishes, and who supplies the power and the gas: ### [McKinney](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/mckinney-generator-installation) Electricity: Oncor, CoServ Electric or Grayson-Collin Electric Cooperative, depending on the address. Gas: Atmos Energy. Permits: McKinney has a dedicated Residential Standby Generator permit, filed through the CSS portal, separate from its stand-alone electrical and plumbing permits. Published fee: $80. ### [Grapevine](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/grapevine-generator-installation) Electricity: Oncor across most of the city, with Tri-County Electric Cooperative in northwest Grapevine. Gas: Atmos Energy. Permits: One combined mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fuel gas application, with a fee charged per trade. ### [Mansfield](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/mansfield-generator-installation) Electricity: Oncor or United Cooperative Services, depending on the address. Gas: Atmos Energy. Permits: Stand-alone electrical and plumbing-gas permits. The city will not issue the electric or gas service release until it has passed the inspection, so the inspection gates your connection. ### [Midlothian](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas/midlothian-generator-installation) Electricity: HILCO Electric Cooperative serves the city per its own services page, with Oncor serving part of it — check your bill. Gas: Atmos Energy. Permits: Midlothian has no generator line in its Master Fee Schedule. Its electrical permit minimum fee is $50, and a permit that is required but not listed on the schedule is priced on the total valuation of the work. Fees side by side are in [generator permit fees by DFW city](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/generator-permit-fees-dfw-cities). ## Questions ### Who can repair my Cummins generator under warranty? An authorized Cummins service provider. The Cummins operator manual says warranty work "MUST be completed by your authorized Cummins Power Generation service provider." UTS ElectricPros is an authorized Cummins dealer, so we authorize the warranty work ourselves, open the claim and manage it. ### Is the repair covered if my generator is three years old? On a Cummins air-cooled unit, the part usually is and the visit is not. The 5 year / 2,000 hour warranty covers parts, labor and travel in years 1 and 2, then parts only in years 3 to 5, counted from the date of initial start-up. An extended warranty bought with the unit can cover labor and travel for longer. The liquid-cooled range has a 2 year base warranty. ### Do you repair Generac, Kohler and other brands? We do electrical work and general maintenance on other brands, after inspecting the installation first. Warranty work on another manufacturer has to go through that manufacturer's dealer network. ### How often does a Cummins home standby generator need service? The Cummins operator manual for the air-cooled RS13A to RS20AC sets an oil and filter change at the first 25 and first 100 hours, then every 200 hours or every 2 years, whichever comes first, along with the air filter, a battery clean-and-check and a complete system test. Check the oil monthly when there are no outages and daily during one. The liquid-cooled manual sets oil and filters after the first 50 hours, then every 200 hours or 12 months. ### What should I have ready when I call? The model and serial number from the nameplate, the date the unit was started up, the fault code if the controller is showing one, and the service record. Those settle whether it is a warranty matter before anyone drives out. Sources, read 9 October 2026: Cummins Operator Manual A053X174 (C13N6H to C20N6HC), table 11, maintenance frequency, and its warranty section; Cummins Operator Manual A045R242 (standby sets with PC1.1 control, C20 to C40 N6), maintenance tables 19 and 22; Cummins warranty statement A056F206; Cummins air-cooled home standby brochure, bulletin 5544420 ([mart.cummins.com](https://mart.cummins.com/imagelibrary/data/assetfiles/0058679.pdf)); Cummins RS25 spec sheet NAS-5775d-EN for the liquid-cooled base warranty.

Why the compressor startup surge decides it, and what size you need for one, two or three ACs. **Overview:** A standby generator will run central air conditioning if it is sized for the compressor's startup surge: Cummins rates its 20kW air-cooled units (RS20A, RS20AC) to start and run a 5-ton air conditioner under full household pre-load, with a motor starting rating of 40 kVA (34 kVA on the 17kW, 26 kVA on the 13kW). On natural gas the 20kW units produce 18kW. Two systems on one 20kW unit need load management, which on the Cummins air-cooled range controls up to four loads. A portable is not a whole-house answer for central air. Air conditioning is the load that decides sizing in Texas, because a compressor draws several times its running current for a fraction of a second at startup, a spike called locked rotor amperage. The generator has to survive that instant, not merely the steady load afterwards; if it cannot, voltage sags and the compressor stalls. This is also why square footage is a poor sizing guide: two identically sized houses, one with a single system and one with three zones, are completely different problems. --- Sizing guide # Will a generator run my air conditioner? By [Robert Ramsey](https://utselectricpros.com/about#team), Internet Sales Contact, UTS ElectricPros · Published September 17, 2026 · Updated October 9, 2026 Yes, if it is sized for the compressor's startup surge. Cummins rates its 20kW air-cooled standby units to start and run a 5-ton air conditioner with the rest of the house already running; two systems on one 20kW unit need load management. A portable is not a whole-house answer for central air. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Why the compressor decides everything An air conditioning compressor draws several times its running current for a fraction of a second when it starts. That spike is called locked rotor amps, and it is far larger than anything else in a house. A generator has to survive that instant, not just the steady load afterwards. If it cannot, the voltage sags, the compressor stalls, and repeated stalling eventually destroys it. This is why a house with two 4-ton systems can need a bigger generator than a much larger house with one. It is also why square footage is a poor guide. Two houses of identical size, one with a single system and one with three zones, are completely different sizing problems. ## What the ratings actually mean Manufacturers publish a motor starting figure in kVA, measured at a 30% voltage dip. For the Cummins air-cooled range it is 26 kVA on the 13kW, 34 kVA on the 17kW, and 40 kVA on the 20kW units. In plain terms, the 20kW units are rated to start and run a 5-ton air conditioner under full household pre-load — meaning the rest of the house is already running when the compressor kicks in. That is the realistic scenario, not a compressor starting on an empty generator. ## One system, two systems, three A single 3 to 4 ton system in a smaller home is comfortably inside a 13kW to 17kW unit. Two systems, common on two-story homes, is the usual 20kW case, but only with load management. Without it the generator has to be sized for both compressors starting at once, which pushes the choice toward a liquid-cooled unit. Three or more systems, or a 5-ton plus a pool and a well, is where liquid-cooled units at 25kW and up start to make sense. Fuel changes the number: on natural gas the 20kW air-cooled units produce 18kW; on propane, 20kW. The 13kW and 17kW units are rated the same on both fuels. [Fuel comparison](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/natural-gas-vs-propane-vs-diesel). ## Load management is the cheap answer Intelligent Load Management monitors what each large load needs and restores only what the generator has capacity to run. On the Cummins air-cooled units it handles up to four loads. In practice the second air conditioner is held back for a short time while the first one starts. That is how a 20kW unit covers a house with two systems. A soft-start module on the largest compressor works from the other direction, reducing the startup surge itself. Price both against the next generator size before accepting a larger unit. ## Why a portable will not do it A portable has to be started and connected by hand, and it feeds only the circuits you choose through a manual transfer switch or an interlock. Its output is sized for refrigeration, lighting, fans, pumps and electronics. That is useful in a short outage, but it is not a way to keep central air running. Never connect a portable by back-feeding a dryer or range outlet. Without a transfer switch or interlock it can energize the utility line a lineworker is repairing. ## Questions ### What size generator do I need to run a 5-ton air conditioner? A 20kW air-cooled unit is rated to start and run a 5-ton compressor under full household pre-load. If that 5-ton is the only air conditioning and the rest of the house is modest, a 17kW may cover it. If there is a second system, a pool pump or a well, you are into 20kW with load management or a liquid-cooled unit above it. ### Can one generator run two air conditioners? Yes, with load management. The generator holds the second compressor off until the first has started, so it only has to cover one startup surge at a time. Without load management the unit has to be sized for both compressors starting together, which on most two-system homes means a liquid-cooled unit rather than a 20kW air-cooled one. ### Will a portable generator run central air? Not as a whole-house answer. A portable has to be started and connected by hand, feeds only the circuits you select through a manual transfer switch or interlock, and is sized for essentials such as refrigeration, lights, fans, pumps and networking. Central air needs a standby unit sized for the compressor's startup surge, with an automatic transfer switch. ### Does a soft start let me buy a smaller generator? It can. A soft-start module reduces the compressor's startup current, and that surge is usually what forces the generator size up. Price one against the next generator size before accepting a larger unit; we check whether it applies to your compressor at the site survey. ### How do I find my air conditioner tonnage? It is normally encoded in the model number on the outdoor condenser data plate — 024 is 2 ton, 036 is 3 ton, 048 is 4 ton, 060 is 5 ton. Divide by 12 if you find a BTU figure instead. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.

[View details](https://utselectricpros.com/generators/rs13a) [All 35 home standby models →](https://utselectricpros.com/generators) Why our prices are on the page ## Most generator sites won’t show you a number You have probably already filled out a form somewhere and gotten a phone call instead of a price. There is a reason that happens, and it is not a good one. We publish the equipment price, to the cent, on every residential and light commercial generator and every transfer switch we carry. You can compare us against any other Cummins dealer in the country in about thirty seconds, and you should. Equipment price is not where a good dealer competes — every authorized dealer sells the same machine at the same advertised number. A few lines are quoted directly rather than listed: RV gensets, open-set diesel and units above 100kW, which are specified against your service and switchgear rather than sold off a shelf. Where dealers actually differ is installation: whether the crew is in-house or brokered out, whether the permit gets pulled, whether the gas line gets sized correctly the first time, and whether anyone answers the phone in year three. That is the part we ask you to judge us on. ### What the equipment price includes - **The generator:** Yes — factory new, full warranty - **Transfer switch:** On combo models only, listed per product - **Installation labor:** No — quoted after survey - **Concrete or composite pad:** No — part of install quote - **Gas line and pressure test:** No — by a licensed plumber, in our install quote or yours to arrange - **Permits and inspection:** No — part of install quote - **Sales tax:** No — added at invoice [Full DFW cost breakdown →](https://utselectricpros.com/pricing) How it works ## Four steps, no surprises ### Size it Start with the sizing calculator or call us. What matters most in Texas is your air conditioning: tonnage, how many systems, single-stage or variable-speed. Then well pumps, ranges, water heaters. You end up with a kilowatt range, not a guess. ### Reserve it A refundable deposit reserves your unit, locks the equipment price for 90 days, and puts you on the survey schedule. Refundable means refundable - if the survey turns up something you would rather not spend money on, you get it back. ### Survey and install quote A licensed electrician walks the property: pad-to-panel run, gas meter capacity and line sizing, setbacks from windows and doors, your service and panel, and what the city will want. Then you get a written installation quote. That is the first time you see an install number, and it is a real one. ### Install, inspect, commission Our crew sets the pad, places the unit, runs the gas, installs the transfer switch and ties into the panel. We pull the permits. The city inspects. We commission under load and walk you through the controls, the exercise cycle and the maintenance interval before we leave.

Equipment and installation are two different numbers, and most sites blur them. Our equipment prices are published on every model page: a Cummins RS13A 13kW starts at $4,419.04, and the 20kW RS20A is $5,925.25. Installation in DFW typically adds $6,000 to $11,000 depending on how far the generator sits from the gas meter and the electrical panel, whether your gas line needs upsizing, and what your city requires for permits and inspection. That puts a typical installed 20kW job in the $13,500 to $17,000 range. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. We do not quote installation without seeing the property, because the variables that move that number are physical. ### What size generator do I need for a Texas home? Air conditioning decides it. A 2,500 to 3,500 square foot DFW home with two AC systems is usually a 20kW unit with load management. Under about 1,800 square feet with a single system, 13kW to 17kW is often enough. Above roughly 4,000 square feet, or if you have a pool, a well, a shop, or three or more HVAC zones, you are into liquid-cooled territory at 25kW and up. The sizing calculator gets you to a range in about two minutes, and the site survey confirms it against your actual panel. ### Do you publish real prices, or is this a "call for pricing" site? Real prices, to the cent, on everything we are able to list — which is every residential and light commercial generator and every transfer switch. Those are equipment prices. A few lines are quoted directly instead: RV gensets, open-set diesel and units above 100kW, which are specified against your service and switchgear rather than sold off a shelf. We publish what we can because you will find those numbers anyway, and a dealer who hides the equipment price is usually hiding the installation price too. ### What does the refundable deposit actually do? It reserves your specific unit out of inventory, locks the equipment price for 90 days, and puts you on the schedule for a site survey within five business days. It applies in full to your final invoice. It is refundable any time before installation begins, with no conditions and no restocking games. If the survey turns up something you do not want to spend money on, you get your money back. ### Why does installation require a site visit? Because four things change the price and none of them are visible online: the distance from the generator pad to your gas meter, whether the existing gas line can carry the additional load or needs upsizing, the distance and path from the generator to your electrical panel, and what your particular city requires for permits, setbacks and inspection. A licensed electrician walks all four in about 45 minutes and you get a written number. ### Which cities do you cover? We install across the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, including Plano, Frisco, Fort Worth, Dallas, Arlington, McKinney, Grand Prairie, Southlake and the surrounding communities. We are an online dealership with crews in the field - there is no showroom to visit, which is part of why our equipment pricing is what it is. ### Where do your generators ship from? Do you stock them locally? UTS ElectricPros is an online retailer and authorized Cummins dealer. Equipment ships from stock at the Cummins Regional Distribution Center in Dallas, Texas, inside the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, not from an out-of-state warehouse. An order placed online is delivered direct to your door, in Texas or any other state. For an installation in Dallas-Fort Worth, our own crews collect the unit at the distribution center, deliver it to your property and install it. There is no showroom or retail counter, which is part of why the prices are what they are. ### Can I buy a generator from you without installation? Yes. Portable, RV and mobile trailer-mounted generators ship from Cummins stock in Dallas direct to your door and need no installation to run. Home standby equipment can be purchased on its own if you have your own licensed electrician, though most customers find the combined path simpler because the transfer switch, the gas work and the permit all have to line up. ### Are you actually an authorized Cummins dealer? Yes. UTS ElectricPros, LLC is an authorized Cummins Residential and Light Commercial generator dealer, and a licensed Texas electrical contractor. That combination matters: the dealer relationship gets you factory equipment, factory parts and a valid factory warranty, and the electrical license means the same company that sells it is the company that installs it and stands behind it.

UTS ElectricPros runs it in four steps in Dallas-Fort Worth. First, a free 45-minute on-site survey by a licensed electrician that measures four things: pad location against setback requirements from windows, doors, vents and the property line plus any HOA constraints; gas supply, meaning whether the meter has spare capacity and what size line the run requires, which is the single biggest variable; the electrical path from generator to panel and whether a service-entrance rated transfer switch is needed; and the jurisdiction's permit and inspection requirements. Second, a fixed written installation price with the equipment line itemized separately. No deposit is required to receive a quote. Third, permits, which UTS pulls, with fees inside the quoted price; permitting usually sets the calendar rather than crew availability. Fourth, the physical work, one to three days on a typical residential job. --- Start to finish # How installation actually works A standby generator is not an appliance you plug in. It is a permitted electrical and gas installation that ties into two utilities, and it has to be inspected. Here is every step, in order, including the parts that determine what it costs. [★★★★★ 4.7 from 500+ Google reviews — installed by Clements Electric, DFW electricians since 1982](https://maps.google.com/maps?cid=3976497238318490434) Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Step 1 — The site survey A licensed electrician comes to the property for about 45 minutes. This is free and there is no obligation attached to it. Four things get measured, and those four things are essentially your installation price. - Pad location. Where the unit can legally sit, given setback requirements from windows, doors, vents and the property line, plus any HOA constraints. - Gas supply. Whether your meter has spare capacity for the additional demand, and what size line the run requires. This is the biggest single variable in the whole job. - Electrical path. The distance and route from the generator to your panel, whether the panel has capacity, and whether a service-entrance rated transfer switch simplifies the tie-in. - Jurisdiction. Which city, what permits are required, and what the current inspection lead time looks like. ## Step 2 — The written quote You get a fixed installation price in writing, with the equipment line itemized separately so you can see exactly which part is the published Cummins price and which part is our labor and materials. If something at your property is going to be unusually expensive, we tell you before you commit, not after the trench is open. No deposit is required to receive a quote. A refundable deposit is only relevant if you want to reserve a specific unit and lock the equipment price while permitting runs. ## Step 3 — Permits We pull the electrical permit. A gas permit, where the city requires one, is issued to the licensed plumber who runs the gas line. On a turnkey job we coordinate both, and the permit fees are inside your quote. Permitting is usually what sets the calendar, not our crew availability. Lead times vary across Metroplex jurisdictions and we will give you a realistic window rather than an optimistic one. ## Step 4 — Installation The physical work on a typical residential job runs one to three days. Our crews collect your unit from Cummins stock at the Cummins Regional Distribution Center in Dallas and deliver it to your property themselves, so it never sits on a freight dock. Then they pour the concrete pad, set and level the generator, install the automatic transfer switch and do all of the electrical wiring, and we manage the whole project from permit to commissioning. The gas line is run and pressure tested by a licensed plumber on natural gas, or by a gas or propane company on LP. On a turnkey job we hire them and the gas line is included in your price; you can also hire a plumber or gas company of your choice. ### Your gas line: two ways to do it Our licensed electricians do the electrical work. The gas line is plumbing, so in Texas it is run by a licensed plumber, or by your propane company on an LP system. You choose how that gets arranged. #### We handle it We hire a licensed plumber, schedule them around the electrical work and the inspections, and show the gas line as its own line item in your written quote. You have one contact for the whole job, and we stand behind the gas line we arranged: if it fails because of how it was installed, call us and we get it fixed at no charge. #### You hire your own Some homeowners save money by hiring a licensed plumber or their propane company directly for the gas portion. We take the gas line out of our quote and give your plumber what they need to size it: the generator's fuel demand and required inlet pressure from the Cummins specification sheet, and where the pad will sit. Your plumber warrants their own work. Either way, a gas meter upgrade, if your house needs one, is the gas utility's work on its own schedule, and the city inspects the gas line under its own permit. The electrical work is done by our own licensed electricians. They trade as [Clements Electric](https://clementselectric.com/service/generators), the assumed name under which UTS ElectricPros, LLC runs its licensed electrical contracting business from Grand Prairie. Same company and same license, TECL #40628, as the dealership that sold you the generator. On liquid-cooled units above 25kW, placement sometimes requires equipment access that a standard truck cannot provide. That gets identified at the survey, never discovered on install day. ## Step 5 — Inspection The city inspects. We meet the inspector on site. If anything is flagged, we correct it and re-inspect at our cost, because it is our work. ## Step 6 — Commissioning and handover We start the unit and test it under actual load, not just at idle. We set the weekly exercise schedule, confirm the transfer timing, and walk you through the controller, the maintenance interval and what the various fault indications mean. You should finish that walkthrough able to operate the machine without calling anyone. If you cannot, we have not finished. What we will not do: quote an installation price over the phone from a description of your house. Every dealer who does that is either padding to cover the unknown or is going to revise it later. Neither one is good for you. ## Questions ### How long does the whole process take from deposit to running generator? The physical installation is one to three days. End to end, the calendar is normally driven by equipment availability and by permitting and inspection scheduling in your city. We give you a realistic window at the survey once we know the jurisdiction and the scope, rather than quoting a number that sounds good and slips. ### Can I hire my own plumber for the gas line? Yes. The gas line is run by a licensed plumber either way, or by your propane company on an LP system. On a turnkey job we hire and schedule the plumber, the gas line is its own line item in the quote, and we stand behind it. If you would rather hire your own plumber or propane company to save money, we take the gas line out of our quote and give them the generator's fuel demand, required inlet pressure and pad location so they can size it. Your plumber then warrants the gas work and we warrant ours. ### Do I have to be home for the installation? For the survey, yes, or someone who can grant access and answer questions about the property. For the installation itself we need access to the panel, the gas meter and the yard. Most customers are present on the first day and for the commissioning walkthrough at the end. ### Will you replace my electrical panel if it is too old? We can, and sometimes it is genuinely required before a generator can be tied in safely. If that is the case we tell you at the survey and it appears as its own line item, so you can decide on it separately rather than finding it buried in a lump sum. ### What maintenance does it need afterward? A standby generator needs periodic oil and filter service and an annual inspection, on an interval based on run hours and elapsed time. We offer maintenance plans and we will tell you the interval at handover. Skipping it is the fastest way to have a generator that does not start during the outage you bought it for. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model. The installation number takes about 45 minutes at your address, and it costs nothing.

Diesel is stored on site, so the generator does not depend on the gas utility during the event that took the power out. It offers high power density, and the C-series runs at 1800 rpm, half the engine speed of a residential air-cooled unit, which suits long runs. ### What is the difference between the enclosed and open C-series? Enclosed models come in a Sound Level 1 enclosure, with or without a 24-hour base tank, and sit outdoors on a pad. Open-frame models have no enclosure and go in a generator room, a farm building, or a yard where you provide the housing. Cummins also sells the open-frame range as its agricultural standby line. ### Can I buy a light commercial generator online? Yes, for the enclosed models with a published price. Add the configuration to the cart and check out. Freight is charged at checkout by the unit's shipping weight: $500 up to 1,500 lb, $600 up to 2,500 lb, $750 above 2,500 lb. We call to confirm delivery before it is booked. Open-frame models and anything above 100kW are quoted per project on (214) 957-4307. ### Do you install commercial generators? In Dallas-Fort Worth, yes, under Texas electrical contractor license TECL #40628. Installation is quoted separately after a site survey covering the pad, fuel arrangement, transfer switch and permits. The equipment can be shipped anywhere in the United States. ## Keep the doors open Tell us what the building has to keep running.

Maintenance is not upkeep on something in use; it is the only thing that proves the machine still works. The two causes of a no-start during an outage are consistently the battery and the fuel, and both are found by a routine visit: a battery that measures fine at rest can still collapse under crank load, and fuel that has sat a year is not the substance that went in. There is also a contractual reason, since manufacturers generally require documented service to honor a warranty claim. UTS ElectricPros provides generator maintenance and service plans across Dallas-Fort Worth. --- Service & maintenance # Generator maintenance in Dallas–Fort Worth A standby generator spends almost all of its life switched off, waiting. That is exactly what makes it fail: batteries die quietly, fuel goes stale, and nothing tells you until the night the power goes out. Maintenance is not upkeep on something you use — it is the only thing that proves the machine still works. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## Why it matters more than owners expect Ask any generator technician what causes a no-start during an outage and you will hear the same two answers: the battery and the fuel . Neither is exotic, and both are found by a routine visit. A battery that measures fine sitting still can still collapse under crank load. Gasoline and diesel that have sat for a year are not the same substances that went in. When either one finally stops the machine, it does not stop silently — it [blinks a numbered fault code](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-generator-fault-codes) at whoever opens the enclosure, and the number narrows it considerably. The second reason is contractual rather than mechanical. Manufacturers generally require documented service to honor a warranty claim. A homeowner who skipped maintenance for three years and then has a major component fail is often holding an expensive repair that would otherwise have been covered. The weekly exercise cycle is not maintenance. It keeps seals lubricated and confirms the unit starts, which is worth having — but it changes no oil, tests no battery under load, and verifies no transfer switch. It is a self-check. ## What a service visit actually covers Parts used are genuine Cummins — [see part numbers](https://utselectricpros.com/accessories). The Cummins intervals, and who may do warranty work, are in [generator repair and service](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/whole-house-generator-repair-mckinney-grapevine-mansfield). Not every item applies to every unit — spark plugs are a gas concern, coolant is a liquid-cooled one. This is the full scope we work from. - **Oil and filter change:** The single most important item. Standby engines run under load from cold starts, which is hard on oil. - **Air filter:** Inspected every visit, replaced on interval or sooner in dusty rural installs. - **Spark plugs:** Gas units. Fouled plugs are a common no-start cause after long idle periods. - **Battery test and terminals:** The number one cause of a generator not starting. A battery that reads fine at rest can still fail under crank load, so it is tested under load, not just measured. - **Coolant and hoses:** Liquid-cooled units. Level, condition, and any weeping at connections. - **Fuel system:** Gas pressure under load, or on diesel a fuel condition and water check. Diesel that has sat can grow biological contamination. - **Transfer switch operation:** A live transfer test. The generator starting is only half the system working. - **Load test:** Run under actual load, not at idle. An unloaded run proves almost nothing. - **Controller and fault log:** Any stored codes read and cleared, exercise schedule confirmed. - **Written report:** What was done, what was found, what to watch. That record is what a warranty claim needs. ## Commercial and life-safety systems are different If your generator serves emergency lighting, fire pumps, egress systems or anything else classified as a life-safety load, it is not governed by manufacturer guidance alone. Those systems fall under NFPA 110 , which sets its own testing regime — routine operational testing at defined intervals, and periodic testing under real load, with records kept. Building owners are frequently unaware of this until an inspection or an insurance review raises it. If you operate a clinic, a restaurant, a multi-tenant building or a facility with emergency egress lighting on generator backup, the compliance obligation is yours whether or not anyone has mentioned it. We handle commercial standby maintenance and the documentation that goes with it. If you are not sure which category your system falls into, that is a short conversation and worth having before someone else raises it for you. [See our commercial electrical division](https://utselectricpros.com/commercial-electrical). ## Maintenance questions ### How often does a standby generator need servicing? Broadly, an annual service plus an oil change on a run-hours basis, with the exact interval set by the manufacturer for your model and by how much the unit actually runs. A generator that only exercises weekly reaches the calendar interval long before the hours interval. One that ran for four days during an ice storm may need service immediately afterwards regardless of when it was last done. We set the interval at handover and tell you what triggers an early visit. ### What actually happens if I skip maintenance? Two things, and the second is worse than the first. You risk voiding warranty coverage, because manufacturers generally require documented service for a claim. And you materially increase the chance the unit does not start during the outage you bought it for. Dead batteries and stale fuel are the leading causes of standby generator no-starts, and both are exactly what a service visit catches. A generator that fails on the one night it was needed has delivered zero of the value you paid for. ### Do you service generators you did not install? Yes, after we inspect the existing installation first. We need to see how it was put in before taking responsibility for how it runs. If we find something genuinely unsafe we will tell you plainly and quote the fix separately — we will not quietly take on a maintenance contract for a system we would not have installed. ### Do you service other brands, or only Cummins? We are a licensed electrical contractor, so we can perform electrical work and general maintenance on other brands. Warranty work on another manufacturer has to go through that manufacturer's dealer network. If you have an out-of-warranty unit of another brand, call and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right people for it. ### Is the weekly exercise cycle enough on its own? No. The exercise cycle keeps seals lubricated and confirms the unit will start, which is genuinely valuable, but it does not change oil, test the battery under load, check gas pressure under demand, or verify the transfer switch. It is a self-check, not a service. ### What does maintenance cost? It depends on the unit and the interval, so we quote it against your specific model and installation. What we will not do is perform work you have not approved beforehand — anything found during a visit gets quoted before it gets fixed. ## Get on a schedule Whether we installed it or not. Tell us the make, the model and roughly when it was last serviced, and we will tell you what it needs.

The C100D2RE is $118,826.25 for the equipment, the same at every voltage it is offered in. Freight is not charged at checkout: it is quoted per shipment, and we confirm it with you by phone before anything is booked. Paid by bank transfer (ACH) at checkout, or by wire on invoice. No card fee. Sales tax is calculated at checkout from the delivery address. No installation is included or required to run it as a stand-alone generator. ### Can we buy the C100D2RE for a rental fleet? Yes. This is a Cummins rental package, built for fleet use: a lockable enclosure, onboard fluid containment and controls designed for rental operators. Rental companies and commercial buyers can order online or by phone. Tax-exempt purchases require a valid Texas resale or exemption certificate. Without one on file, sales tax is charged at checkout. To buy tax-exempt, provide your certificate before ordering by calling (214) 957-4307; online checkout cannot accept a certificate. Orders for several units are also easier to arrange by phone. ### Which voltage should I choose? Choose the voltage of the equipment or building you will power. The C100D2RE is offered in 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 139/240 3Ph, 277/480 3Ph, 347/600 3Ph. Cummins sets the unit up for your selection before it ships, so the choice has to be right at the order. If you are not sure, have your electrician confirm it, or call us before you buy and we will work through it with you. ### How long will the C100D2RE run on a tank? The onboard tank holds 131 gallons, which Cummins rates at about 27 hours at 75% of prime load. At full standby load it burns 7.1 gallons an hour. It also carries 10 gallons of diesel exhaust fluid, sized for 24 hours of operation, and uses DEF at less than 4% of fuel consumption. ### What do I need to tow the C100D2RE? It weighs 7,100 lb dry and 8,100 lb with a full tank, about 4.1 tons, on a tandem-axle trailer. Check your tow vehicle and hitch against the wet weight, not the dry weight. You choose electric or hydraulic brakes and a ball or pintle hitch when you order, and Cummins builds the trailer to match. ### Can the C100D2RE power a building? Yes, but not by plugging it in. Connecting a generator to a building's wiring needs a properly rated transfer switch or generator docking station installed by a licensed electrician, so the generator cannot back-feed the utility line. That work is not sold with the equipment. In Dallas-Fort Worth we quote it separately after a site survey.

The C12D6RE is $20,617.50 for the equipment, the same at every voltage it is offered in. Freight is not charged at checkout: it is quoted per shipment, and we confirm it with you by phone before anything is booked. Paid by bank transfer (ACH) at checkout, or by wire on invoice. No card fee. Sales tax is calculated at checkout from the delivery address. No installation is included or required to run it as a stand-alone generator. ### Can we buy the C12D6RE for a rental fleet? Yes. This is a Cummins rental package, built for fleet use: a lockable enclosure, onboard fluid containment and controls designed for rental operators. Rental companies and commercial buyers can order online or by phone. Tax-exempt purchases require a valid Texas resale or exemption certificate. Without one on file, sales tax is charged at checkout. To buy tax-exempt, provide your certificate before ordering by calling (214) 957-4307; online checkout cannot accept a certificate. Orders for several units are also easier to arrange by phone. ### Which voltage should I choose? The C12D6RE is a 120/240 1Ph unit, which covers standard 120 V and 240 V tools, job-site panels and single-phase loads. It is not offered in a three-phase build. ### How long will the C12D6RE run on a tank? The onboard tank holds 26 gallons, which Cummins rates at about 29.5 hours at 75% of prime load. At full standby load it burns 1.28 gallons an hour. ### What do I need to tow the C12D6RE? It weighs 1,801 lb dry and 2,017 lb with a full tank, about 1 tons, on a single-axle trailer. Check your tow vehicle and hitch against the wet weight, not the dry weight. ### Can the C12D6RE power a building? Yes, but not by plugging it in. Connecting a generator to a building's wiring needs a properly rated transfer switch or generator docking station installed by a licensed electrician, so the generator cannot back-feed the utility line. That work is not sold with the equipment. In Dallas-Fort Worth we quote it separately after a site survey.

The C200D2RE is $173,322.50 for the equipment, the same at every voltage it is offered in. Freight is not charged at checkout: it is quoted per shipment, and we confirm it with you by phone before anything is booked. Paid by bank transfer (ACH) at checkout, or by wire on invoice. No card fee. Sales tax is calculated at checkout from the delivery address. No installation is included or required to run it as a stand-alone generator. ### Can we buy the C200D2RE for a rental fleet? Yes. This is a Cummins rental package, built for fleet use: a lockable enclosure, onboard fluid containment and controls designed for rental operators. Rental companies and commercial buyers can order online or by phone. Tax-exempt purchases require a valid Texas resale or exemption certificate. Without one on file, sales tax is charged at checkout. To buy tax-exempt, provide your certificate before ordering by calling (214) 957-4307; online checkout cannot accept a certificate. Orders for several units are also easier to arrange by phone. ### Which voltage should I choose? Choose the voltage of the equipment or building you will power. The C200D2RE is offered in 120/240 1Ph, 120/208 3Ph, 139/240 3Ph, 277/480 3Ph. Cummins sets the unit up for your selection before it ships, so the choice has to be right at the order. If you are not sure, have your electrician confirm it, or call us before you buy and we will work through it with you. ### How long will the C200D2RE run on a tank? The onboard tank holds 255 gallons, which Cummins rates at about 24 hours at 75% of prime load. At full standby load it burns 14.9 gallons an hour. It also carries 15 gallons of diesel exhaust fluid, sized for 24 hours of operation, and uses DEF at less than 4% of fuel consumption. ### What do I need to tow the C200D2RE? It weighs 8,710 lb dry and 10,430 lb with a full tank, about 5.2 tons, on a tandem-axle trailer. Check your tow vehicle and hitch against the wet weight, not the dry weight. You choose electric or hydraulic brakes and a ball or pintle hitch when you order, and Cummins builds the trailer to match. ### Can the C200D2RE power a building? Yes, but not by plugging it in. Connecting a generator to a building's wiring needs a properly rated transfer switch or generator docking station installed by a licensed electrician, so the generator cannot back-feed the utility line. That work is not sold with the equipment. In Dallas-Fort Worth we quote it separately after a site survey.

Prices are for the equipment; freight is quoted per shipment. ## Before you order ### Fleet orders and tax-exempt purchases Tax-exempt purchases require a valid Texas resale or exemption certificate. Without one on file, sales tax is charged at checkout. Online checkout cannot accept a certificate, so to buy tax-exempt, or to order several units, call (214) 957-4307 and provide the certificate before you order. ### Choose the voltage at the order The larger units are built to the voltage you select, from 120/240 V single phase to 277/480 V three phase, and Cummins configures them before they ship. Match the selection to what you will power. If you are not certain, ask your electrician or call us first. ### Check the tow weight wet, not dry A full tank adds hundreds of pounds, and on the 150kW and 200kW units the trailer weighs about five tons fueled. Rate your truck and hitch against the weight with fuel. On the 70kW through 200kW trailers you choose electric or hydraulic brakes and a ball or pintle hitch when you order. ### Tier 4 Final means DEF The 70kW through 200kW sets meet Tier 4 Final without a diesel particulate filter, so there is no DPF to regenerate, but they do use diesel exhaust fluid. Keep DEF on hand alongside the fuel. ### Powering a building needs an electrician A trailer generator connects to a building through a transfer switch or a generator docking station, never by back-feeding a panel. That installation is a separate job. In Dallas-Fort Worth we [quote it after a free site survey](https://utselectricpros.com/quote). What it is for ## Temporary power at scale, towed to site A site needs real power before there is a service to connect to, or needs it only for a while: a jobsite, an event, a planned utility shutdown, or a building running on temporary supply during a fit-out. Buying a permanent set for a temporary need is the wrong purchase. ### Why it becomes urgent For a rental company the problem is different and simpler: units on the yard that are not earning. ### Who buys it Equipment rental companies buying fleet units, and contractors powering a site directly. ## Related across UTS - Trailer units often power remote sites before permanent buildings exist.[Remote-site energy buildings from UTS BuildPros](https://utsbuildpros.com/services/metal-buildings/remote-site-energy-buildings). - Questions to ask before hiring a contractor for a remote energy site.[Remote energy site contractor questions (UTS BuildPros)](https://utsbuildpros.com/blog/remote-energy-site-contractor-questions). --- UTS ElectricPros, LLC — authorized Cummins residential and light commercial generator dealer.

Generator rough-in for builders, closing support for realtors, lender-ready bids and subcontract installs. **Overview:** UTS ElectricPros partners with home builders, real estate agents, mortgage loan officers and electrical contractors across Dallas-Fort Worth for Cummins standby generator work. Services for partners: generator rough-in and transfer-switch pre-wire during construction, itemized lender-ready bids for renovation and construction loans, pre-listing inspection of existing generators, and subcontract install or commissioning for electricians who do not want to carry generator work. Licensed Texas electrical contractor. Contact by phone or through the site. --- For trade and referral partners # Work with us Most of the generators we install in Dallas–Fort Worth reach us through somebody else's client relationship — a builder mid-project, an agent two weeks from listing, a loan officer whose borrower asked a question nobody had an answer to. Here is what we do for each of them, and what we will not do. ## What we bring to a partnership We are a licensed Texas electrical contractor and an authorized Cummins dealer. In practice that combination is the thing that matters to a partner: the equipment, the install, the permit, the inspection and the warranty relationship all sit with one company, so there is no seam for a problem to fall into six months later. We do not ask partners to sell anything, and we do not put your client into a pipeline. What we offer is a straight answer on your timeline that does not come back on you. If you want to discuss how a working relationship is structured, that is a conversation, not a form. ## Builders and remodelers The cheapest generator install is the one that happens while the trench is already open. We work as a subcontractor on the electrical scope or alongside your existing electrician, whichever suits the job. Because we are an authorized Cummins dealer we carry the equipment, the warranty relationship and the commissioning, so a generator does not become a coordination problem for your superintendent. The scope we get asked for most is not a generator at all — it is the rough-in. Pad, conduit, gas stub and transfer switch installed during the build, with the unit added later. It protects the buyer's option without holding up the certificate of occupancy. [Transfer switches and rough-in](https://utselectricpros.com/transfer-switches) · [What our install scope covers](https://utselectricpros.com/installation) ## Real estate agents The generator on a listing is either an asset or a disclosure problem, and the difference is paperwork. Before it goes on the market, we can tell you whether an existing generator was permitted, whether it has been maintained, and whether it will start. That is a short visit and it settles a question that otherwise surfaces during the option period at the worst possible time. For sellers considering adding one, we will give you a straight answer about whether it is worth doing before a sale. Frequently it is not, and we would rather say so than take the job. [What a service visit covers](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance) · [When it is worth it, and when it is not](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/is-a-standby-generator-worth-it-in-texas) ## Mortgage and construction lenders An itemized bid, a license number and a certificate of insurance, without being chased. Generators are eligible improvements under most construction and renovation loan products, and the thing that stalls them in underwriting is documentation, not eligibility. We issue bids written for submission: equipment, labor and permits separated, contractor license on the letterhead, insurance attached. If your borrower is deciding between rolling it into the loan and financing it separately, we are happy to price both. We have no stake in which one they pick. [How each financing route works](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/finance-generator-into-home-loan) · [Request a lender-ready bid](https://utselectricpros.com/quote) ## Electrical contractors Take the call without taking on generator work. Plenty of good electricians do not want to carry generator inventory, learn a manufacturer's commissioning procedure or own a warranty relationship for the next five years. That is reasonable. We will take the generator scope as a subcontractor and leave the rest of the job — and the customer relationship — with you. We also commission and warranty-service units other contractors installed, provided the installation is sound. If it is not, we will tell you what it needs rather than quietly walking away from it. [Manufacturer versus installer warranty](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) · [Commercial electrical services](https://utselectricpros.com/commercial-electrical) ## The rest of the UTS group Generator work is one division. If a client needs something adjacent, the sibling companies share the same ownership and the same standards, and a handoff between them does not become your problem to manage. - [Commercial electrical](https://utselectricpros.com/commercial-electrical) — service upgrades, panels and light industrial work. - [Where we work](https://utselectricpros.com/service-areas) — the DFW cities we cover, with the permitting rules for each. - [Guides](https://utselectricpros.com/guides) — the reference material we send clients so you do not have to explain it. ## Start a conversation Tell us what kind of work you have and who your clients are. If we are not the right fit we will say so on the first call rather than after a site visit.

Ships to your door from Cummins stock in Dallas — no installation, no permit, no electrician. 11,000W Gasoline / LP / NG Inverter — safe for electronics Tri-fuel $100.00 shipping Inverter generators produce clean power - low total harmonic distortion - which means you can run laptops, routers, modern TVs and variable-speed equipment off it without worrying about what the waveform is doing to them. They are also dramatically quieter than a conventional open-frame set, and they throttle down when the load is light instead of running flat out. Running gasoline / lp / ng is the practical advantage here. Gasoline degrades in months and is the reason most stored generators will not start. Propane does not degrade at all, so a unit kept on LP is far more likely to fire on the first pull after sitting through a mild year. Ship weight is 220 lb.

There is no installation, no permit and no electrician involved with a portable, so $2,524.00 is the whole cost. ### What will the P11000iTF run? It is rated at roughly 11,000 starting watts. In practical terms that covers a refrigerator, a well pump, lights, networking gear and a window or portable AC unit, and with a proper interlock it can back-feed a handful of essential circuits. A portable will not run central air conditioning; that is what a standby unit is for. ### Can the P11000iTF run on propane? Yes. This is a tri-fuel unit running on gasoline / lp / ng. Propane is the practical choice for a generator that sits most of the year: it does not go stale, it does not gum a carburetor, and a 20 lb tank is easy to store and rotate. Gasoline gives slightly higher output when you need it. ### Can I use the P11000iTF to back-feed my house? Only through a properly installed transfer switch or an interlock kit. Plugging a generator into a wall outlet - a suicide cord - back-feeds the utility line and can kill a lineman working to restore your power. It also violates the electrical code, which requires transfer equipment between a generator and premises wiring. If you want the generator to power house circuits, we install a manual transfer switch, and if you are doing that anyway it is worth asking whether a standby unit is the better buy. ## Other portables ### [Cummins P2500i](https://utselectricpros.com/portable-generators/p2500i) Portable inverter · Gasoline Ships to your door Price $623.75 Equipment price.

In practical terms that covers a refrigerator, several lights and outlets, a sump or well pump, and either a small window AC or a space heater - not both. A portable will not run central air conditioning; that is what a standby unit is for. ### What fuel does the P4500i use? Gasoline. If the unit will sit unused for long stretches, use fuel stabilizer and run it dry before storage - stale gasoline is the single most common reason a portable will not start when it is finally needed. ### Can I use the P4500i to back-feed my house? Only through a properly installed transfer switch or an interlock kit. Plugging a generator into a wall outlet - a suicide cord - back-feeds the utility line and can kill a lineman working to restore your power. It also violates the electrical code, which requires transfer equipment between a generator and premises wiring. If you want the generator to power house circuits, we install a manual transfer switch, and if you are doing that anyway it is worth asking whether a standby unit is the better buy. ## Other portables ### [Cummins P2500i](https://utselectricpros.com/portable-generators/p2500i) Portable inverter · Gasoline Ships to your door Price $623.75 Equipment price.

They are also dramatically quieter than a conventional open-frame set, and they throttle down when the load is light instead of running flat out. Running gasoline / lp is the practical advantage here. Gasoline degrades in months and is the reason most stored generators will not start.

The models with an i in the name are inverter generators. They rectify the engine output and rebuild a clean sine wave, which means low harmonic distortion and no risk to laptops, routers, modern televisions or anything with a variable-speed motor. They also throttle down under light load, so they are far quieter and burn noticeably less fuel when they are not working hard. Conventional sets trade that for raw output per dollar. If the load is pumps, heaters and power tools, a conventional unit is the better buy. If the load includes anything with a circuit board, buy the inverter. ### Dual fuel is worth the difference Gasoline degrades within months and is the single most common reason a stored generator will not start when it is finally needed. Propane does not degrade at all. A dual-fuel unit kept on LP, with the gasoline system run dry, is dramatically more likely to fire on the first pull after sitting through a quiet year. ### Do not back-feed without a transfer switch Plugging a portable into a wall outlet to power house circuits back-feeds the utility line and can kill a lineman working to restore service. It is illegal and it is not a gray area. If you want a portable to run house circuits, we install a manual transfer switch or an interlock kit — and if you are already doing that work, it is worth asking whether a standby unit is the better purchase. What it is for ## Power you can carry to where it is needed You need electricity somewhere there is none, or somewhere it has just stopped. Camping and tailgating, a jobsite before the service is energized, running tools at a property with no supply, or covering the refrigerator, the lights and a pump through a short outage at home. ### Why it becomes urgent No installation, no permit and no electrician — you buy it, it ships, and it works the day it arrives. ### Who buys it Campers, tailgaters, tradespeople, and homeowners who want a fallback without a five-figure installation. --- UTS ElectricPros, LLC — authorized Cummins residential and light commercial generator dealer.

Real numbers, line by line. **Overview:** A complete, permitted, whole-house generator installation in Dallas-Fort Worth typically runs an estimated $13,500 to $17,000 for a 20kW system, covering equipment, installation, pad, gas work, transfer switch, permits and commissioning; smaller homes on a single air conditioning system come in lower. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The number has two halves. Equipment is published to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price, with nothing added at checkout: RS13A 13kW $4,419.04, RS17A 17kW $5,326.86, RS20A 20kW $5,925.25, RS20AC 20kW with transfer switch $6,868.48, across 35 models. Installation is the variable half and is quoted only after a free on-site survey. --- No hedging # What a whole house generator actually costs in DFW A complete, permitted, whole-house generator installation in the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex typically runs $13,500 to $17,000 for a 20kW system. That is equipment plus installation, pad, gas work, transfer switch, permits and commissioning. Smaller homes on a single AC system come in lower. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. Here is where every dollar of it goes. Cummins manufacturer photography. ## The two halves of the number Half one ### Equipment — published, fixed Every model we sell has its price on its page, to the cent. It is the Cummins suggested retail price, and the price on the page is the price at checkout: no processing or card fee is added. - **Cummins RS13A — 13kW:** $4,419.04 - **Cummins RS17A — 17kW:** $5,326.86 - **Cummins RS20A — 20kW:** $5,925.25 - **Cummins RS20AC — 20kW + ATS:** $6,868.48 [All 35 models →](https://utselectricpros.com/generators) Half two ### Installation — quoted, variable This is the half nobody publishes, because it genuinely cannot be published honestly. It typically adds $7,500 to $11,000 on a 20kW job, depending on four physical facts about your property. We quote it in writing after a free survey. Estimate only; installations vary, and a site visit determines your price. - **Concrete or composite pad:** $400 – $900 - **Gas line and pressure test (licensed plumber):** $800 – $3,500 - **Electrical tie-in and transfer switch labor:** $1,400 – $2,800 - **Permits and city inspection:** $150 – $650 - **Crane or equipment placement:** $0 – $1,200 - **Startup, load test and commissioning:** Included ## What drives the installation number ### Concrete or composite pad $400 – $900 Composite pads are faster and usually cheaper. Poured concrete is required by some HOAs and on soft ground. ### Gas line and pressure test (licensed plumber) $800 – $3,500 The single biggest swing. A short run off an adequately sized meter is cheap. A long run, or a meter that has to be upsized by the gas utility, is not. A licensed plumber does this work. We hire one on a turnkey job, or you can hire your own and take this line out of our quote. ### Electrical tie-in and transfer switch labor $1,400 – $2,800 Depends on the distance from the generator to the panel and whether the panel has room. Older panels sometimes need replacing first. ### Permits and city inspection $150 – $650 Varies by city. Some DFW cities require separate electrical and mechanical permits and two inspections. ### Crane or equipment placement $0 – $1,200 Rarely needed on air-cooled units. Can be needed for a heavier liquid-cooled set when a truck cannot reach the pad. ### Startup, load test and commissioning Included We test under actual load, set the exercise schedule and walk you through the controls before we leave. ### Your gas line: two ways to do it Our licensed electricians do the electrical work. The gas line is plumbing, so in Texas it is run by a licensed plumber, or by your propane company on an LP system. You choose how that gets arranged. #### We handle it We hire a licensed plumber, schedule them around the electrical work and the inspections, and show the gas line as its own line item in your written quote. You have one contact for the whole job, and we stand behind the gas line we arranged: if it fails because of how it was installed, call us and we get it fixed at no charge. #### You hire your own Some homeowners save money by hiring a licensed plumber or their propane company directly for the gas portion. We take the gas line out of our quote and give your plumber what they need to size it: the generator's fuel demand and required inlet pressure from the Cummins specification sheet, and where the pad will sit. Your plumber warrants their own work. Either way, a gas meter upgrade, if your house needs one, is the gas utility's work on its own schedule, and the city inspects the gas line under its own permit. ## Typical all-in cost by model Estimates, not quotes. The 20kW band is the range a typical DFW job falls in; every installation is priced in writing after the free survey, and if yours falls outside the band we will tell you why before you commit to anything. | Model | Equipment | Typical installed, all in | Who it fits | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Cummins RS13A — 13kW | $4,419.04 | Quoted after survey; equipment is $1,506.21 less than the 20kW | Smaller home, one AC system, essential circuits plus air conditioning. | | Cummins RS17A — 17kW | $5,326.86 | Quoted after survey; equipment is $598.39 less than the 20kW | A home whose air conditioning and essential loads fit inside 17kW. | | Cummins RS20A — 20kW | $5,925.25 | $13,500 – $17,000 | Two-story home, two AC systems, whole-house with load management. | | Cummins RS20AC — 20kW | $6,868.48 | $13,500 – $17,000 | Same as above, with the 200A service-entrance transfer switch in the box. | Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. Installed bands are for a turnkey job and include equipment, pad, a gas line within a normal run (by the licensed plumber we hire), transfer switch, electrical tie-in, permits, inspection and commissioning. They exclude panel replacement, gas meter upsizing by the utility, crane placement and sales tax. If you hire your own plumber or propane company for the gas line, our quote drops by that line item. ## Cummins home standby equipment prices — all 26 priced models Every model we sell, with its published equipment price.

Part numbers and configurations are published on each model page. ## Why authorized Cummins dealers show nearly the same equipment price Cummins publishes a minimum advertised price for each model, and no authorized dealer may advertise below it. Cummins also publishes a suggested retail price, about 3% above that floor, and that is what we charge. So the numbers on this page sit within a few percent of any other authorized Cummins dealer's site, and ours include the cost of card processing rather than adding it at checkout. What it does not do is set what any dealer will finally sell for - that is between you and them. It does mean a published equipment price is not a discount to be haggled over, and a dealer who hides it is hiding a number you can look up. What genuinely differs is the installation: who does the work, whether they hold the electrical license themselves or subcontract it, how the gas line and transfer switch are handled, how long you wait, and what happens when the unit needs service in year four. That is the part worth comparing, and it is the part we quote in writing after seeing your property. Equipment prices reviewed 2026-08-28. Cummins adjusts pricing periodically; the figure on each model page is the one we will honor for 90 days against a refundable deposit. ## Questions about cost ### Why do some sites say a whole house generator costs $4,000 in Dallas? Because they are quoting equipment, or quoting a partial-home installation, and calling it whole-house. RS13A equipment alone is $4,419.04 before anyone touches a shovel. A number near $4,000 for a complete, permitted, whole-house installation in DFW is not a real number, and quotes that start there tend to grow once someone actually sees the property. We would rather tell you $13,500 to $17,000 up front. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. ### What makes one installation cost more than another at the same house size? Gas, almost always. If your meter has spare capacity and the generator sits close to it, the gas work is a day. If the run is long, or the meter has to be upsized by the gas utility, or the line has to cross a driveway, that single line item can move by $2,500. The second biggest driver is the distance from the generator to the electrical panel, because that is trenching and conduit. ### Do you charge for the site survey or the quote? No. The survey is free and the written quote is free, with no obligation and no deposit required to get it. A refundable deposit is only relevant if you want to reserve a specific unit and lock the equipment price for 90 days while the survey and permit work happen. ### Is the equipment price negotiable? Our published figure is the Cummins suggested retail price (MSRP), and nothing is added to it at checkout. Cummins also sets a minimum advertised price that no authorized dealer may advertise below, so published equipment prices from authorized dealers sit within a few percent of each other. What that means for you is that equipment price is not where dealers really differ, so the useful comparison is the part that does vary — the installation, the crew, and whether anyone answers the phone in year three. ### Can I finance it? Yes, and most customers do at this ticket size. We can put you in front of a home-improvement lender for a rate check that does not affect your credit. See the financing page for how that works. ## Get your actual number The bands above are honest, but they are still bands. Forty-five minutes at your property turns them into a fixed price in writing, at no cost and no obligation.

A refundable deposit reserves a specific unit, locks the equipment price for 90 days and schedules the site survey. It applies in full to the final invoice and is refundable at any time before installation begins. No deposit is required to receive a quote. --- Plain language # Deposit and refund policy The deposit exists to reserve equipment and hold a price while permitting runs. It is not a commitment device and it is not a way to trap you. Here is exactly how it works. ## What the deposit does - Reserves a specific unit out of available inventory in your name. - Locks the published equipment price for 90 days , protecting you from a manufacturer price change during permitting. - Schedules your site survey within five business days. - Applies 100% to your final invoice . It is not a fee and it is not consumed by anything. ## Refunds The deposit is refundable in full, at any time, up until installation work begins. There are no conditions, no restocking charge and no requirement to explain yourself. If the site survey reveals work you do not want to pay for, you get a full refund. If you decide against the project for no reason at all, you get a full refund. If we cannot source your unit in a reasonable window, we refund it without being asked. Refunds are issued to the original payment method. Card processors typically post the credit within 5 to 10 business days, which is their timeline rather than ours. ## After installation begins Once installation work has started, the deposit has been applied to your invoice and the project is governed by your signed installation agreement rather than by this policy. That agreement sets out change orders, scheduling and warranty. ## What the deposit is not It is not required in order to get a quote. Surveys and written installation quotes are free and carry no obligation. If someone tells you a deposit is needed before you can see a price, that is not us. ## Questions ### Do I need a deposit to get a quote? No. Site surveys and written installation quotes are free with no obligation and no payment of any kind. The deposit only matters if you want to reserve a specific unit and lock the equipment price. ### What if the survey turns up expensive surprises? You get your deposit back in full. That is precisely the scenario the refund terms exist for. We would rather refund a deposit than install a system somebody feels cornered into. ### Does the 90-day price lock cover installation too? The lock covers the equipment price. Your installation price is fixed in writing when we issue the quote after the survey, and it is honored on its own terms. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model. The installation number takes about 45 minutes at your address, and it costs nothing.

Delivery cost depends on the product type, and for liquid-cooled and diesel generators on shipping weight: air-cooled home standby generators ship free; enclosed diesel generators are $500 up to 1,500 lb, $600 up to 2,500 lb, $750 above 2,500 lb, by shipping weight; liquid-cooled home standby generators are $500 up to 1,500 lb, $600 up to 2,500 lb, $750 above 2,500 lb, by shipping weight; portable generators are $75 to $175 by model; RV generators are $150 flat; mobile trailer-mounted diesel generators are quoted per shipment and not charged at checkout; automatic transfer switches ship free. Everything except the quoted categories is charged at checkout; nothing is billed afterwards without being quoted first. Published prices cover equipment only. Installation, permits, the transfer switch and the gas connection are quoted separately after a free site survey and none of them are charged at checkout. --- Plain language # Shipping and returns What delivery costs, what to check before you sign for a crate, and what happens if a machine arrives damaged or develops a fault. Written out fully, because a generator is not a purchase anyone should have to guess about. ## Delivery What delivery costs depends on what the machine is, and for liquid-cooled and diesel generators, on its shipping weight. - Air-cooled home standby generators — free. No delivery charge. - Enclosed diesel generators — $500 up to 1,500 lb, $600 up to 2,500 lb, $750 above 2,500 lb, by shipping weight. Charged at checkout by the unit's shipping weight. - Liquid-cooled home standby generators — $500 up to 1,500 lb, $600 up to 2,500 lb, $750 above 2,500 lb, by shipping weight. Delivered on a pallet, liftgate included. - Portable generators — $75 to $175 by model. Rated per model and charged at checkout. - RV generators — $150 flat. One rate, charged at checkout. - Mobile trailer-mounted diesel generators — quoted per shipment. Freight on mobile trailer-mounted generators is quoted per shipment, not charged at checkout. - Automatic transfer switches — free. No delivery charge. We ship anywhere in the United States. Published prices cover the equipment only . Installation, permits, the transfer switch and the gas connection are quoted separately after a free site survey, and none of them are charged at checkout. ## Inspect the delivery before you sign This is the most important two minutes of the whole purchase, so we will be blunt about it. Anything heavier than a portable arrives by freight truck, and somebody needs to be there to receive it. Before you sign the driver’s paperwork: - Walk around the crate and look at it. - If anything is damaged, crushed or missing, write it on the delivery receipt before signing . - Photograph the damage and the paperwork. - Tell us within 14 days of delivery. Signing a clean receipt for a damaged crate is the one mistake that can defeat a freight claim outright, and it cannot be undone later. ## If a machine arrives damaged We make it right. A unit damaged in transit to you goes back and is repaired or replaced, and you do not pay the freight to return it. Call us as soon as you have the photographs and the annotated delivery receipt, and we will start the claim and arrange collection. ## If a machine develops a fault Faults are repaired under the Cummins factory warranty, at no cost to you. Cummins warrants air-cooled home standby generators for five years and liquid-cooled and diesel units for two years . You keep the machine and we put it right; call us and we will handle the claim. Our [warranty page](https://utselectricpros.com/warranty) sets out what is covered. ## Returns Complete machines are not returnable. Generators and transfer switches are allocated and delivered to you specifically, and once a machine has been delivered we cannot take it back for a change of mind. The two situations above — damage in transit, and a fault under warranty — are how a delivered machine is put right, and they cover the things that actually go wrong. This is why we would always rather talk to you before you order. If you are not certain which size fits your home, call us and we will work it out together. Sizing advice is free, there is no obligation, and it is the step that makes sure the machine that arrives is the one you wanted. Our [sizing calculator](https://utselectricpros.com/sizing-calculator) is a good starting point. ## Exchanges We do not offer exchanges, for the same reason. Sizing is settled before the order, not after the delivery. ## Deposits A reservation deposit is a different thing entirely and is fully refundable at any time before installation begins, with no conditions. If you want to hold a unit and a price while you think, that is what the deposit is for. See our [deposit and refund policy](https://utselectricpros.com/refund-policy). ## Questions Call [(214) 957-4307](tel:+12149574307) or email [dispatch@utselectricpros.com](mailto:dispatch@utselectricpros.com). A person answers. ## Common questions ### Can I return a generator if I change my mind? No. Generators and transfer switches are complete machines, allocated and delivered to you specifically, and they are not returnable once delivered. That is why we size the unit with you before you order — the sizing conversation is free, there is no obligation, and it is the step that makes sure you buy the right machine the first time. ### What if my generator arrives damaged? Then it goes back and we make it right. Note the damage on the delivery paperwork before you sign it, photograph it, and tell us within 14 days of delivery. Signing a clean receipt for a damaged crate is the one thing that can defeat a freight claim, and it cannot be undone afterwards, so please take the two minutes at the tailgate. ### What if the unit is faulty? It gets repaired under the Cummins factory warranty at no cost to you — five years on air-cooled home standby models, two years on liquid-cooled and diesel. A fault is a warranty matter rather than a return: you keep the machine and we put it right. --- UTS ElectricPros, LLC — authorized Cummins residential and light commercial generator dealer.

Quantity Delivery from stock to Texas · $150.00 Typically ships in 4-13 days ## Questions about the 10HDKCA11506 ### How much is the Onan 10HDKCA11506? $14,773.21 for the genset itself. Installation into a coach is separate and depends entirely on the chassis - whether there is an existing generator bay, how the fuel pickup is arranged, and what the exhaust routing looks like. ### Will the 10HDKCA11506 run my RV air conditioning? At 10,000 watts it will run two rooftop air conditioners plus the rest of the coach. Rooftop air conditioners draw a large surge on startup, so the practical limit is usually the starting load rather than the running load. A soft-start module on the AC changes that math considerably and is often cheaper than moving up a generator size. ### Why a diesel RV generator? Diesel gensets pull from the coach's existing fuel tank, so there is no second fuel to manage and no propane to run out of at a boondocking site. They are the standard on diesel pushers for exactly that reason. They also tend to last longer under heavy hours than a gasoline set. ### Is the 10HDKCA11506 CARB compliant? No. This model is not CARB compliant and cannot be sold new into California. For Texas use that is not a restriction, but it is worth knowing if the coach may be sold to a California buyer. ## Similar diesel gensets ### [Cummins 6HDKAH-1044](https://utselectricpros.com/rv-generators/onan-6hdkah-1044) RV genset · Diesel Ships to your door Price $11,944.65 Equipment price.

Installation into a coach is separate and depends entirely on the chassis - whether there is an existing generator bay, how the fuel pickup is arranged, and what the exhaust routing looks like. ### Will the 2.8HGLAA-8311 run my RV air conditioning? At 2,800 watts it will run one 13,500 BTU rooftop air conditioner on a soft-start, or the coach without air conditioning. Rooftop air conditioners draw a large surge on startup, so the practical limit is usually the starting load rather than the running load. A soft-start module on the AC changes that math considerably and is often cheaper than moving up a generator size. ### What fuel does the 2.8HGLAA-8311 use? Gasoline. It draws from the coach gasoline tank, so there is nothing extra to fill. ### Is the 2.8HGLAA-8311 CARB compliant? Yes, this model is CARB compliant, so it can be sold new in California.

RV generators require no installation by UTS ElectricPros and are an equipment sale only. --- Cummins Onan QG series # Onan 4.0HGLDA 4,000-watt RV genset, dual fuel (gasoline / lp), 120/240V. The generator most coaches are built around. Representative manufacturer image of the range. Enclosure finish, color and dimensions vary by model and configuration — see the specifications below for this unit. 4,000W Dual Fuel (Gasoline / LP) 120/240V · 33.3A 30A Onan is the genset the RV industry standardized on, which has a practical consequence beyond brand preference: parts, filters and service documentation are available everywhere, and any competent RV shop in the country has worked on one. That is worth real money the first time something fails three states from home. At 4,000 watts this unit will run one 13,500 BTU rooftop air conditioner plus lights, converter and small appliances. Air conditioning is almost always the deciding load in a coach, and the surge at startup - not the steady draw - is what sets the requirement. Installation into a coach depends on the chassis: whether a generator bay already exists, how the fuel pickup is arranged, and how exhaust is routed.

Quantity Delivery from stock to Texas · $150.00 Typically ships in 4-13 days ## Questions about the 4.0HGLDA ### How much is the Onan 4.0HGLDA? $4,323.71 for the genset itself. Installation into a coach is separate and depends entirely on the chassis - whether there is an existing generator bay, how the fuel pickup is arranged, and what the exhaust routing looks like. ### Will the 4.0HGLDA run my RV air conditioning? At 4,000 watts it will run one 13,500 BTU rooftop air conditioner plus lights, converter and small appliances. Rooftop air conditioners draw a large surge on startup, so the practical limit is usually the starting load rather than the running load. A soft-start module on the AC changes that math considerably and is often cheaper than moving up a generator size. ### What fuel does the 4.0HGLDA use? Dual Fuel (Gasoline / LP). Dual fuel gives you the flexibility to run from the coach gasoline tank or from an LP bottle, which matters when one of the two is scarce. ### Is the 4.0HGLDA CARB compliant? No. This model is not CARB compliant and cannot be sold new into California. For Texas use that is not a restriction, but it is worth knowing if the coach may be sold to a California buyer. ## Similar dual fuel (gasoline / lp) gensets ### [Cummins 2.8HGLEA](https://utselectricpros.com/rv-generators/onan-2-8hglea) RV genset · Dual Fuel (Gasoline / LP) Ships to your door Price $3,436.08 Equipment price.

Diesel gensets pull from the coach's existing fuel tank, so there is no second fuel to manage and no propane to run out of at a boondocking site.

Ships from Cummins stock in Dallas, Texas, direct to all 50 states. RV generators require no installation by UTS ElectricPros and are an equipment sale only. --- Cummins Onan QD series # Onan 8HDKAK-1046 8,000-watt RV genset, diesel, 120V. The generator most coaches are built around. 8,000W Diesel 120V · 66.6A 35A 2-Pole Onan is the genset the RV industry standardized on, which has a practical consequence beyond brand preference: parts, filters and service documentation are available everywhere, and any competent RV shop in the country has worked on one. That is worth real money the first time something fails three states from home. At 8,000 watts this unit will run two 13,500 BTU rooftop air conditioners, or one 15,000 BTU unit with room to spare. Air conditioning is almost always the deciding load in a coach, and the surge at startup - not the steady draw - is what sets the requirement. As a QD-series diesel set it draws from the coach fuel tank, so there is no separate fuel to manage. Note that these ship without a battery charger. Price $13,382.69 Monthly payments with Affirm or Klarna at checkout, subject to approval.

Installation is not included. Quantity Delivery from stock to Texas · $150.00 Typically ships in 4-13 days ## Questions about the 8HDKAK-1046 ### How much is the Onan 8HDKAK-1046? $13,382.69 for the genset itself. Installation into a coach is separate and depends entirely on the chassis - whether there is an existing generator bay, how the fuel pickup is arranged, and what the exhaust routing looks like. ### Will the 8HDKAK-1046 run my RV air conditioning? At 8,000 watts it will run two 13,500 BTU rooftop air conditioners, or one 15,000 BTU unit with room to spare. Rooftop air conditioners draw a large surge on startup, so the practical limit is usually the starting load rather than the running load. A soft-start module on the AC changes that math considerably and is often cheaper than moving up a generator size. ### Why a diesel RV generator? Diesel gensets pull from the coach's existing fuel tank, so there is no second fuel to manage and no propane to run out of at a boondocking site. They are the standard on diesel pushers for exactly that reason. They also tend to last longer under heavy hours than a gasoline set. ### Is the 8HDKAK-1046 CARB compliant? No. This model is not CARB compliant and cannot be sold new into California. For Texas use that is not a restriction, but it is worth knowing if the coach may be sold to a California buyer. ## Similar diesel gensets ### [Cummins 6HDKAH-1044](https://utselectricpros.com/rv-generators/onan-6hdkah-1044) RV genset · Diesel Ships to your door Price $11,944.65 Equipment price.

The boundary runs through neighborhoods, so two houses on one street can have different providers, and each approves a service-entrance tie-in its own way. Your bill shows which you have. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. If the meter cannot carry the generator on top of the furnace, water heater and other appliances, the utility has to upsize it, which is a separate request with its own timeline. [How gas line sizing works](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator). Already have solar? It has to connect on the utility side of the transfer switch so the generator never feeds the inverters, and the disconnect and meter rules come from Oncor Electric Delivery or CoServ Electric or Grayson-Collin Electric Cooperative, whichever serves your address.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Allen is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Allen? Yes. A standby generator is a permitted installation, normally an electrical permit plus a separate gas permit pulled by the licensed plumber where the fuel line is touched. Allen does not publish a generator-specific fee or checklist, so we confirm the current requirement for your address at the survey. We pull the electrical permit and meet the inspector. ### Can Allen regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Allen? Electric delivery is Oncor, CoServ Electric or Grayson-Collin Electric Cooperative, depending on the address. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Allen? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628. The gas line is run by a licensed plumber we hire and warrant, or by your own plumber if you prefer.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Argyle is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Argyle? Yes. Permits go through Permits Department, 308 Denton Street. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Argyle regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Argyle? Electric delivery is CoServ Electric. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Argyle? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Celina is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Celina? Yes. Permits go through Development Services, 112 N Colorado Street. Celina publishes a home back-up power informational packet with a pre-submittal checklist, so the plan detail it wants is written down before you apply rather than discovered in review. Work is built to the 2024 International codes with the North Central Texas Council of Governments amendments. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Celina regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Celina? Electric delivery is Oncor or CoServ Electric, depending on the address. Natural gas is CoServ Gas. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Celina? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Coppell is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Coppell? Yes. Permits go through Building Inspections, 265 East Parkway Boulevard; the published fee is $130. An electrical permit with a plumber attached whenever the generator ties into house gas piping. Four inspections: gas, electrical rough, electrical underground, final electrical. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Coppell regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Coppell? Electric delivery is Oncor for most of the city, with CoServ Electric or TNMP in a few northern areas. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Coppell?

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Flower Mound is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Flower Mound? Yes. Permits go through Building Inspections Division, 2121 Cross Timbers Road; the published fee is $150. A dedicated Residential Backup Power permit with three inspections: plumbing rough and gas test where a new gas line is run, electrical rough, then finals. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Flower Mound regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Flower Mound? Electric delivery is CoServ or Oncor, depending on the address. Natural gas is Atmos Energy or CoServ, depending on the address. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Flower Mound? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628.

A permit is required for every electrical installation, and on a generator that means the transfer switch and the service tie-in. Where the gas line is touched it is a separate permit. Garland publishes no generator-specific fee, and the residential permit adds a processing fee on top of the trade permits, so we confirm the total at the survey instead of quoting a figure off a schedule. State preemption does not reach every Garland address. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars cities from regulating a residential backup system of 50kW or less, but not where the city owns the electric utility, and Garland’s does. At those addresses the city’s own requirements apply. [How the two statutes work](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). ## Utilities that affect your install Electric delivery in Garland is Garland Power & Light, the city's own utility, for most but not all of the city. On the municipal side the meter and the service drop belong to the same body that issues your permit, so the transfer-switch tie-in is agreed with the city. Off it, you are in the deregulated market with a separate delivery company. Your bill shows which side you are on. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. If the meter cannot carry the generator on top of the furnace, water heater and other appliances, the utility has to upsize it, which is a separate request with its own timeline. [How gas line sizing works](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator). Already have solar? It has to connect on the utility side of the transfer switch so the generator never feeds the inverters, and the disconnect and meter rules come from Garland Power & Light or Oncor Electric Delivery, whichever serves your address.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Garland is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Garland? Yes. Permits go through Building Inspection, Main Street Municipal Building, 800 Main Street. A permit is required for every electrical installation, and on a generator that means the transfer switch and the service tie-in. Where the gas line is touched it is a separate permit. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Garland regulate my home generator install? At an address served by Garland's own utility, yes. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars cities from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less, but the statute does not limit a municipally owned utility within its own service area, so the city's rules still apply at those addresses. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Garland? Electric delivery is Garland Power & Light, the city's own utility, for most but not all of the city. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Garland? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628.

Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Grapevine? Electric delivery is Oncor across most of the city, with Tri-County Electric Cooperative in northwest Grapevine. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Grapevine?

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Keller is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Keller? Yes. Permits go through Building Services, 1100 Bear Creek Parkway. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Keller regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Keller? Electric delivery is Oncor or Tri-County Electric Cooperative, depending on the address. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Keller?

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Midlothian is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Midlothian? Yes. Permits go through Development Services, City Hall second floor, 215 N 8th Street. Midlothian has no generator line in its Master Fee Schedule. Its electrical permit minimum fee is $50, and a permit that is required but not listed on the schedule is priced on the total valuation of the work. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Midlothian regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Midlothian? Electric delivery is HILCO Electric Cooperative serves the city per its own services page, with Oncor serving part of it — check your bill. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Midlothian?

Richardson builds to the 2021 International codes with the 2020 National Electrical Code and regional amendments. Prosper, by contrast, adopted the 2023 NEC, and the two editions differ on parts of the transfer switch and disconnect rules. State law limits what Richardson may require on a home system of 50kW or less, and a qualified third party may do the review and inspection instead: [Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 and Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/city-generator-permit-rules-texas). Your HOA cannot ban the generator either ([Property Code § 202.019](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/hoa-generator-rules-texas)). ## Utilities that affect your install Electric delivery across Richardson is Oncor Electric Delivery, so one meter standard applies at every address. That decides how the transfer switch ties in at the meter and whether a [service-entrance rated switch](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/service-entrance-transfer-switches) is the cleaner path. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. If the meter cannot carry the generator on top of the furnace, water heater and other appliances, the utility has to upsize it, which is a separate request with its own timeline. [How gas line sizing works](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator). Already have solar? It has to connect on the utility side of the transfer switch so the generator never feeds the inverters, and the disconnect and meter rules come from Oncor Electric Delivery.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Richardson is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Richardson? Yes. Separate single-trade electrical and plumbing permits. Each licensed contractor pulls their own and owns their own inspections, so nobody is waiting on a single general permit to clear. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Richardson regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Richardson? Electric delivery is Oncor Electric Delivery. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Richardson? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628.

The boundary runs through neighborhoods, so two houses on one street can have different providers, and each approves a service-entrance tie-in its own way. Your bill shows which you have. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. If the meter cannot carry the generator on top of the furnace, water heater and other appliances, the utility has to upsize it, which is a separate request with its own timeline. [How gas line sizing works](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/gas-line-sizing-for-a-generator). Already have solar? It has to connect on the utility side of the transfer switch so the generator never feeds the inverters, and the disconnect and meter rules come from Tri-County Electric Cooperative or Oncor Electric Delivery, whichever serves your address.

A typical 20kW Cummins system installed in Trophy Club is estimated at $13,500 to $17,000, including the pad, transfer switch, permit and commissioning, with the gas line included as its own line item. Estimate only. Every installation is different; a site visit is required to determine whether your installation will cost less or more than this estimate. The RS20A unit itself is $5,925.25. Your figure depends on the distance from the generator to the gas meter and the electrical panel and on whether the gas meter needs upsizing, so it is fixed in writing after a free survey. ### Do I need a permit for a generator in Trophy Club? Yes. Permits go through Community Development, 1 Trophy Wood Drive. Trophy Club has its own generator permit application rather than folding the work into a general one, and lets you choose between a town inspector and an approved third-party provider. We pull the permit and meet the inspector, and it is inside the installation quote. ### Can Trophy Club regulate my home generator install? Only within limits. Texas Local Government Code § 229.102 bars a city from regulating the installation or inspection of a residential backup system of 50kW or less where the city does not own the electric utility. Since 2025, Texas Local Government Code § 247.0025 also lets a qualified third party do the plan review and inspection, and the city must then issue the permit by the third business day after notice. ### Who provides gas and electric service in Trophy Club? Electric delivery is Tri-County Electric Cooperative or Oncor, depending on the address. Natural gas is Atmos Energy. The electric utility sets how the transfer switch ties in at the meter; the gas utility decides whether your meter can carry the generator's extra demand. Service territory does not follow city limits, so we confirm both from your bill before quoting. ### Who installs the generator in Trophy Club? Our own licensed electricians, working as Clements Electric, the dba of UTS ElectricPros, LLC, from 2100 S Great Southwest Pkwy, Suite 505, Grand Prairie, under TECL #40628. The gas line is run by a licensed plumber we hire and warrant, or by your own plumber if you prefer.

Seven questions, sized around air conditioning load. No email required to see your answer. **Overview:** A generator sizing calculator for Texas homes that asks seven questions and returns a kilowatt range plus the models that fit it. No email address is required. Sizing is driven by air conditioning load rather than square footage, so a 3,000 square foot house with one AC system needs less generator than a 2,200 square foot house with two. Published short answers cover 2,000, 2,500, 3,000 and 3,500 square foot Texas homes, assuming a typical DFW house on natural gas with load management, which is how the large majority are installed. --- Two minutes, no email # What size generator do I need? In Texas, air conditioning decides this — not square footage. A 3,000 sq ft house with one AC system needs less generator than a 2,200 sq ft house with two. Answer seven questions and you will get a kilowatt range and the models that fit it. ## What size generator for a 2,000, 2,500, 3,000 or 3,500 sq ft Texas home The short answer, before you run the calculator. These assume a typical DFW house on natural gas with load management, which is how we install the large majority of them. Without load management the requirement rises sharply, so both are shown. | Home size | AC systems | With load management | Typical model | Without load management | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Up to 2,000 sq ft | 1 × 2.5 ton | 12 – 14 kW | Cummins RS13A — 13kW on gas · $4,419.04 | 13 – 15 kW (RS17A) | | 2,001 – 2,500 sq ft | 1 × 3.5 ton | 15 – 17 kW | Cummins RS17A — 17kW on gas · $5,326.86 | 16 – 19 kW (RS20A) | | 2,501 – 3,500 sq ft | 2 × 3.5 ton | 16 – 19 kW | Cummins RS20A — 18kW on gas · $5,925.25 | 27 – 31 kW (RS30) | | 3,501 – 4,500 sq ft | 2 × 5 ton | 23 – 27 kW | Cummins RS25 — 25kW on gas · $17,622.48 | 38 – 45 kW (RS50) | | 4,501 – 6,000 sq ft | 3 × 5 ton | 25 – 30 kW | Cummins RS30 — 30kW on gas · $18,812.69 | 42 – 50 kW (RS50) | Prices are equipment only. Square footage is a proxy here — the calculator below asks for your actual air conditioning tonnage, which is what really decides the answer. Sizes assume no EV charger, well pump or pool equipment; add those in the calculator. ## Size it against your actual loads 1. Roughly how big is the house? 2. How many separate air conditioning systems? Count outdoor condenser units. Most two-story DFW homes have two. 3. How big is the largest one? On the condenser data plate, the model number usually encodes it: 048 = 4 ton, 060 = 5 ton. If you are not sure, pick "Not sure" and we will assume 4 ton. 4. Which of these do you have on electric , not gas? Gas appliances draw almost nothing from a generator. This is where most sizing mistakes happen. Range / oven Clothes dryer Water heater EV charger 5. Any of these? Well pump Pool equipment Detached shop / barn Septic lift pump 6. Do you want everything at once, or is managed load fine? Load management briefly delays the second AC compressor when the first starts. You will not notice it, and it commonly drops the generator by one size. 7. Natural gas or propane? This matters more than it sounds. The 20kW air-cooled units produce 20kW on propane but only 18kW on natural gas, and most sellers publish only the larger figure. We size against whichever one you will actually burn. Your estimate This is an estimate from typical load values, not a load calculation. The final specification comes from a licensed electrician measuring against your actual panel at the site survey — which is free, and which is the number we stand behind. ## Models that fit The first is the smallest unit that meets the estimate. The ones after it give you headroom, and headroom is worth paying for in a Texas summer — a generator running at 95% of capacity in August has nothing left when a compressor kicks in. Worth knowing: on natural gas the air-cooled range stops at 18kW. Above that the next step is a liquid-cooled unit at roughly three times the equipment price. If your estimate has landed just over the line, a soft-start on the largest air conditioner or a load management module usually brings it back under — and both cost far less than moving up a range. That is exactly the sort of thing the survey sorts out. ### Want this confirmed against your panel? The site survey is free and it is the only way to get a real installation number. [Book my free survey](https://utselectricpros.com/quote) [(214) 957-4307](tel:+12149574307) ## Why air conditioning drives the number in Texas A generator has to survive the moment a compressor starts, not just the steady load once it is running. An air conditioning compressor draws several times its running current for the first fraction of a second — locked rotor amps — and if the generator cannot cover that surge, the voltage sags, the compressor stalls, and eventually something expensive fails. That is why a house with two 4-ton systems can need more generator than a much larger house with one. It is also why soft-start modules and load management matter so much here: both attack the surge rather than the steady draw, and both are usually cheaper than moving up a generator size. ### What the calculator assumes These are the actual factors, published so you (or anyone quoting this page) can reproduce the number rather than guess at it: - 5kW base household load — refrigeration, lighting, outlets, networking, garage doors. Add 2kW above 3,500 sq ft. - 1.2kW running load per ton of air conditioning on the largest system. - Secondary AC systems at 75% of the largest, since additional zones are usually smaller — and at 50% of that again under load management, because the module stages them rather than running them flat out. - Starting allowance of 2 × tons with load management, where only one compressor startup has to be covered at a time. Without it, 2.4 × tons × the number of systems, capped at two. - This is a starting allowance , not full locked-rotor amps. Standby sets are rated for motor starting, so charging full LRA oversizes every result by a size. - Standard nameplate values for electric range, dryer, water heater and EV charging. Under load management those are assumed to shed, because that is what a load management module is for. - The result is shown as a band of ±8% around the computed figure. ### What it cannot know Your actual panel capacity, how your circuits are grouped, whether your gas meter can carry the additional demand, and what your city requires. Those come out of the survey, and any of them can change the recommendation. Treat this as a starting range, which is exactly how we treat it internally. ## Related across UTS - For the reasoning behind a sizing number, our installers wrote it up.[How to size a standby generator in Texas (Clements Electric)](https://clementselectric.com/blog/how-to-size-standby-generator-texas). --- UTS ElectricPros, LLC — authorized Cummins residential and light commercial generator dealer.

It isolates your house from the utility before the generator energizes anything, so the generator can never back-feed the line a utility crew is working on. It is not optional and it is not a place to economize. The switch is sized to your electrical service , not to the generator.

It isolates your house from the utility before the generator energizes anything, so the generator can never back-feed the line a utility crew is working on. It is not optional and it is not a place to economize. The switch is sized to your electrical service , not to the generator. A 200A service takes a 200A switch whether the generator behind it is 13kW or 20kW. That is why we confirm your service size at the site survey before specifying one — ordering to the generator instead of the service is the most common and most expensive mistake on these jobs.

Installed across DFW. **Overview:** Cummins RA 200A automatic transfer switch from UTS ElectricPros, an authorized Cummins dealer in Dallas-Fort Worth. 3 purchasable configurations from $1,006.58, priced to the cent at the Cummins suggested retail price. Configurations: RA200NSE 200A 1Ph-120/240V from $1,006.58; RA200SE 200A 1Ph-120/240V from $1,131.88; RA200SE CSA 200A 1Ph-120/240V from $1,559.40. Service-entrance rated options are available, which matters when the switch replaces the main disconnect. A transfer switch is the component that moves the house between utility and generator power; it carries its own Cummins warranty, separate from the generator (2 years on the RA series, per Cummins spec sheet NAS-6254-EN). Ships nationwide. Installation is Dallas-Fort Worth only and is quoted after a free on-site survey. --- RA series # RA 200A transfer switch The RA series is the standard residential switch that pairs with air-cooled Cummins home standby units. Compact, aluminum NEMA 3R cabinet, wall-mounted next to the meter. 200 A Service-entrance rated available 1Ph 3 configurations A transfer switch is what makes a standby generator legal and safe. It isolates your house from the utility before the generator energizes anything, so the generator can never back-feed the line a utility crew is working on. It is not optional and it is not a place to economize. The switch is sized to your electrical service , not to the generator. A 200A service takes a 200A switch whether the generator behind it is 13kW or 20kW. That is why we confirm your service size at the site survey before specifying one — ordering to the generator instead of the service is the most common and most expensive mistake on these jobs. Service-entrance rated versions include the main disconnect, so the switch can replace your existing main rather than sit beside it. That often simplifies the install and reduces what has to be reworked at the panel — but whether it is allowed depends on your meter configuration and your city. From $1,006.58 Equipment only, 3 configurations. Installation quoted with your generator.

The Cummins air-cooled Connect range (RS13A, RS17A, RS20A, RS20AC and their extreme cold weather versions) carries a 5 year / 2,000 hour limited warranty, but coverage inside that period is not uniform: parts are covered for the full five years while travel and labor are covered for a shorter term. Per Cummins warranty statement A056F206, the term starts at initial start-up, years 1 and 2 cover parts, labor and travel, years 3 to 5 cover parts only, and travel is capped at 300 miles and 6 travel labor hours round trip per occurrence. The owner must notify a Cummins dealer within 30 days of discovering a failure and maintain the unit to Cummins guidelines. The RA automatic transfer switch carries its own separate 2 year warranty. The liquid-cooled range, RS25 through RS150, carries a 2 year standby base warranty rather than five, which matters when comparing models. Air-cooled figures come from Cummins specification sheet NAS-6254-EN. Buying through an authorized dealer is what makes any of it valid; equipment from an unauthorized reseller may not be covered. UTS ElectricPros separately warrants its own workmanship: electrical tie-in, transfer switch installation, pad and commissioning, plus the gas line on a turnkey job where it hires the licensed plumber. When a homeowner hires their own plumber, that plumber warrants the gas work. Skipped maintenance is the leading cause of voided coverage, as manufacturers generally require documented service to honor a claim. Cummins factory extended warranties are sold through UTS ElectricPros at the Cummins list price: on the air-cooled 13kW to 20kW units, $550.00 for 5 years of parts, labor and travel, $272.22 for 7 years parts only, and $1,105.56 for 10 years of parts, labor and travel. Every term is also capped at the stated running hours. --- Coverage # Warranty and service There are two separate warranties on any installed generator: the manufacturer covers the machine, and the installer covers the installation. Knowing which is which saves you a lot of time when something needs attention. ## Cummins generator warranty at a glance | Equipment | Base warranty | What is covered | Extended options | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Air-cooled RS13A, RS17A, RS20A, RS20AC (and AE/ACE versions) | 5 years or 2,000 hours, whichever comes first, from initial start-up | Parts, labor and travel in years 1 and 2; parts only in years 3 to 5 | 5, 7 or 10 years, from $272.22 | | Liquid-cooled RS25 to RS150 | 2 years, standby | The spec sheets state the term only; we confirm the detail for a given unit | 5, 7 or 10 years on RS25 to RS100 home standby, from $1,105.56 | | RA and RSS automatic transfer switches | 2 years from the warranty start date | Parts, labor and reasonable travel | 5, 7 or 10 years on the RA, from $116.67 | Travel on the air-cooled base warranty is covered up to 300 miles and 6 travel labor hours round trip per occurrence, whichever is less, from the closest authorized Cummins service provider. Every extended term is also capped at 2,000 running hours. ### What Cummins asks of the owner - Notify a Cummins distributor or dealer within 30 days of discovering a failure. - Install, operate, commission and maintain the unit to Cummins' published policies and guidelines. - Be able to show the date the unit was commissioned. The warranty clock starts at initial start-up. - Have warranty work done by an authorized Cummins service provider. Among the listed exclusions are normal wear and tear, improper or unauthorized installation, lack of maintenance or late servicing, unauthorized repair, improper or contaminated fuel, coolant or lubricant, non-Cummins replacement parts, and cosmetic damage to the enclosure.

Read 9 October 2026. ## The manufacturer warranty The air-cooled Connect range — RS13A, RS17A, RS20A and RS20AC, plus their extreme cold weather versions — carries a 5 year / 2,000 hour limited warranty as standard. Whichever limit you reach first ends the term. Coverage inside that period is not uniform, and the difference matters: parts are covered for the full five years, while travel and labor are covered for the first two . A failure in year four means the part arrives at no cost, but the visit does not. The RA automatic transfer switch carries its own separate 2 year warranty . It is a distinct product with a distinct term, so a switch fault in year three is not covered by the generator warranty even though the two were bought and installed together. Cummins factory extended warranties are available through us in 5, 7 and 10 year terms . They are Cummins’ own coverage, sold by UTS ElectricPros as the authorized dealer, not a third-party service contract. On the air-cooled range they start at $272.22, and [every price is published below](#extended-warranty-prices). Buying through an authorized dealer is what makes any of this valid. Equipment from an unauthorized reseller may not be covered, so check the seller on the Cummins dealer locator before you buy. The liquid-cooled range is different, and materially so . RS25 through RS150 carry a 2 year standby base warranty , not five. If you are comparing a 20kW air-cooled unit against a 25kW liquid-cooled one, that gap belongs in the comparison alongside the price. Extended warranty options are available on both and are worth pricing at the point of sale. Air-cooled figures come from the Cummins specification sheet for the Connect range (NAS-6254-EN). Liquid-cooled figures come from the individual RS-series sheets published by Cummins. For a diesel unit, we confirm the base warranty term with the quote. ## Extended warranty prices These are our prices for Cummins factory extended warranties, which is the Cummins list price. Each term ends at the stated years or running hours, whichever comes first. Parts, labor and travel means a covered failure costs you nothing: the part, the technician's time and the trip to your house. Parts only covers the component, and you pay for the visit. Buy the extended warranty with the generator. The tables below are for home standby. Small-business and diesel prices follow them. ### Air-cooled 13–20kW (generator only) Covers RS13A, RS13AE, RS17A, RS17AE, RS20A, RS20AE, RS20AC, RS20ACE.

Our installation warranty We warrant our own workmanship: the electrical tie-in, the transfer switch installation, the pad and the commissioning. If something we installed fails because of how we installed it, we come back and fix it and there is no invoice. The gas line is run by a licensed plumber. On a turnkey job, where we hire that plumber, we stand behind the gas line too: call us, and we get it fixed at no charge. If you chose to hire your own plumber or propane company for the gas portion, they warrant that work. This is the practical argument for buying equipment and installation from the same company. When the sale and the install are split across two businesses, a fault becomes a question of whose fault it is, and you are the one holding both phone numbers. ## What voids coverage Skipped maintenance is the leading cause. A standby generator needs oil, filters and an annual inspection on a defined interval; documented service is normally required for warranty claims. Unauthorized modification and improper fuel are the other two common causes. [See what a service visit covers](https://utselectricpros.com/maintenance). ## Who to call [Call us first](https://utselectricpros.com/contact), at any time, for anything. If it is a manufacturer warranty matter, we authorize the warranty work ourselves as the Cummins dealer, straight away, then open the claim and manage it. If it is an installation matter we handle it directly. You should not have to work out which category your problem falls into — that is our job. One thing that helps before you call: if the unit has shut itself down it is blinking a numbered fault code on the light inside the enclosure. [Reading that code](https://utselectricpros.com/guides/cummins-generator-fault-codes) takes a minute, and it often tells us whether we are looking at a covered component or at something you can correct yourself in less time than the call takes. ## Questions ### How much is a Cummins extended warranty? On the air-cooled 13kW to 20kW home standby units, Cummins factory extended coverage starts at $272.22 for 7 years of parts-only coverage, $550.00 for 5 years of parts, labor and travel, and $1,105.56 for 10 years of parts, labor and travel. Liquid-cooled, transfer switch, small-business and diesel prices are in the tables on this page. These are our selling prices, the Cummins list price, and the coverage is Cummins' own, not a third-party service contract. ### Does buying from an online reseller void the warranty? Buying from an unauthorized reseller frequently means the manufacturer warranty is not honored, and self-installation or installation by an unlicensed party can void it as well. If a price online looks materially below what authorized dealers show, that is usually the reason. ### Do you service generators you did not install? Yes, subject to inspecting the existing installation first. We need to see how it was put in before we take responsibility for how it runs. ### What does maintenance cost? It depends on the unit and the interval. We quote maintenance plans at handover and you are never obligated to buy one from us — but you do need the work done by someone, and documented, to keep coverage intact. ## Get a real number for your property Equipment pricing is published on every model.
