Longwood Pricing
What Does a Generator Cost in Longwood?
Whole home installs in the Orlando area typically run $7,000 to $25,000+. Here's where most Longwood 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 on every Generac air-cooled unit we install. Where a Peoples Gas main reaches your street, a natural gas connection typically adds minimal cost compared with a propane tank installation.
Because GenerX employs all labor in-house, we eliminate the third-party markup that drives up installation costs elsewhere. Our buying volume as Florida’s largest dealer means we get better equipment pricing than smaller dealers. The result: a higher-quality installation at a more competitive price, not a trade-off.

Frequently Asked Questions
Longwood Generator Questions, Answered
Which permits does a Longwood generator need?
Longwood’s Building Division keeps separate Electrical and Fuel Gas permit applications and takes them through the city’s SmartGov system, from its office at 174 West Church Avenue. GenerX pulls the permit with a licensed electrician and schedules the inspections. You sign the Notice of Commencement and provide a property survey.
Is my Longwood home on Duke Energy or FPL?
Inside Longwood, the city’s utility service application names Duke Energy. FPL serves other parts of Seminole County, with Lake Mary, Sanford and Geneva on its list, so a home just outside the city could be on FPL. Check the name on your electric bill; a GenerX transfer switch is wired for whichever utility you have.
Can my Longwood generator run on natural gas?
Where a main reaches the street, yes. Peoples Gas and Florida Public Utilities both include Longwood in their Seminole County service areas. Other homes run the generator on propane from a tank on the lot; your Field Engineer confirms the fuel at the free estimate.
Do Longwood HOAs approve standby generators?
Usually, after architectural review. GenerX handles the paperwork the board asks for: the site drawing, the manufacturer’s sound data and the screening plan.
How fast can GenerX reach Longwood for repairs?
Our nearest facility covers Longwood. Our service department takes emergency repair calls 24/7, and when a storm knocks out Seminole County, GenerX moves crews in from across the state.
