At Heat Pumps of Maine, high-efficiency heat pump systems remain the primary focus—but reliable backup power is a critical part of total home comfort and resilience. To meet that need, Heat Pumps of Maine now offers professional standby generator installation and service, specializing in Generac standby generator systems.

Maine’s weather, rural infrastructure, and increasing electrical demand make power outages more than just an inconvenience. A permanently installed Generac standby generator provides automatic, seamless backup power to keep heat pumps, heating systems, well pumps, refrigeration, medical equipment, and essential circuits operating when the grid goes down. Generac Standby Generator Specialists
Generac is the industry leader in residential and light-commercial standby generators. These systems are permanently installed, connected to your home’s electrical system, and powered by propane or natural gas. When an outage occurs, the generator automatically detects the loss of power and restores electricity within seconds—no manual intervention required.
Every installation is designed specifically for the home or business, based on electrical demand, fuel availability, and site conditions. Turnkey Installation Process
Generator projects are handled as complete, start-to-finish installations, including:
- On-site evaluation and system sizing
- Load calculations to determine proper generator capacity
- Coordination with electrical and fuel connections
- Permitting and inspections
- Professional installation and commissioning
- System testing and homeowner walkthrough
This ensures the generator is properly sized, code-compliant, and ready to perform when it is needed most.
Backup Power That Protects Your Comfort
Power outages in Maine don’t just mean dark rooms—they can mean frozen pipes, loss of heating systems, spoiled food, and disrupted daily life. A Generac standby generator provides:
- Automatic power restoration
- Protection for heat pumps and HVAC systems
- Continuous power during storms and outages
- Increased home value and peace of mind
- With automatic operation, your generator turns on within seconds of a power loss—no manual setup required.

Generator systems can be configured to support heat pumps alongside other critical household loads, ensuring continued comfort and system protection during extended power interruptions.
