Shaker Heights is one of Cleveland's most historic and architecturally distinguished suburbs, with large homes built in the early 20th century along tree-lined boulevards. The city's heavily wooded streets and older housing stock make it particularly vulnerable to power outages, and many homes have electrical panels that require evaluation before generator installation. Backup Power Solutions installs Generac, Kohler, and Cummins standby generators throughout Shaker Heights and surrounding east Cuyahoga County communities.
We serve Shaker Heights, University Heights, Cleveland Heights, and surrounding east Cuyahoga County communities. Our technicians handle all Cuyahoga County Building Department permits and FirstEnergy (CEI) interconnection paperwork from start to finish.
Shaker Heights' large historic homes often have higher electrical loads and older service panels that require evaluation before generator installation. Our licensed electricians assess your panel during the free estimate and include any necessary upgrade costs in your written quote transparently.
