[ about ]
Generator Budget is a free planning toolkit for U.S. homeowners preparing for a standby-generator project. It provides explainable low, typical, and high installed-cost ranges, generator sizing worksheets, running-cost and maintenance estimates, financing calculations, placement questions, and a source-backed 2026 federal tax-path checker.
Each calculator shows the assumptions behind its result. It is designed for early budgeting and contractor conversations, not as a contractor quote, electrical or fuel-system design, code decision, or tax advice. No signup or sales call is required to use the tools.
