Oxford Pricing
What Does a Generator Cost in Oxford?
Whole home installs in the Memphis area typically run $7,000 to $25,000+. Here's where most Oxford homes land.
Essential circuits (lights, fridge, AC unit)
Most homes under 3,000 sq ft (full house)
Larger homes, multiple HVAC zones
Large homes, home offices, medical equipment
Prices include equipment, in-house installation, transfer switch, permit fees, and our 12-year warranty. Natural gas comes from Delta Utilities, the former CenterPoint Energy system, where a connection is available; propane is the alternative and adds a tank to the install.
Because GenerX employs all labor in-house, we eliminate the third-party markup that drives up installation costs elsewhere. Our buying volume across the Canter Power network means better equipment pricing than smaller dealers. The result: a higher-quality installation at a more competitive price, not a trade-off.

Ice. The 1994 ice storm left nearly 750,000 customers without power across North Mississippi.

Many HOAs require architectural approval before installation. We prepare the HOA packet for you: the site drawing, the sound sheet and the screening plan, so the board has what it needs to review.
