14kW vs. 18kW: Which
Generator Is Right for Your Home?
This is the question most homeowners land on before they call us, so let's answer it directly.
The 14kW is the right fit for most homes between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet with a single HVAC system and standard household loads. If that describes your home, the 14kW handles it cleanly.
Still not sure? Our free site visit includes a load calculation that gives you a definitive answer: no guesswork, no overselling. If the 14kW is right for your home, we'll tell you. If you need the 18kW or the 22kW, we'll tell you that too.
- Home 2,500 to 3,500 sq ft with one or two HVAC systems
- Pool pump running simultaneously with household loads
- EV charger, hot tub, or high-draw home office equipment
- Two-zone HVAC or a larger central system
- Full whole-home coverage with headroom to spare

Built for Florida's
Hurricane Season
When a hurricane or tropical storm moves through Brevard County, the Space Coast loses power, sometimes for hours, sometimes for days. The Generac 18kW is designed so that when the power goes out, nothing in your home skips a beat.
The system activates automatically within seconds of an outage. Both HVAC units keep running. The refrigerator and freezer stay cold. The pool pump maintains water quality. The security system stays active. You don't flip a switch, go outside, or do anything at all; the generator detects the outage and takes over on its own.
When utility power is restored, the system steps back automatically and runs a self-test to confirm it's ready for the next event. For a Florida homeowner on the Space Coast, that level of readiness isn't a comfort feature. It's the whole point.

PowerPro Elite+ Dealer
The PowerPro Elite+ designation isn't something a dealer can buy. It requires factory training, verified installation volume, and ongoing performance standards set by Generac. It's the highest residential dealer tier Generac awards, and Eau Gallie Electric has earned it.
What that means in practice: our technicians are trained directly by Generac, not by a generic electrical course. Warranty support runs through us directly. And when your system needs service, this year or five years from now, you're calling the same company that installed it. A team that has been serving Brevard County since 1948, employee-owned, and accountable to this community.
