Most homes under 3,000 sq ft (full house)

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 serves your Ponte Vedra Beach 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
Ponte Vedra Beach Generator Questions, Answered
Who permits a generator in Ponte Vedra Beach?
Ponte Vedra Beach is unincorporated, so the St. Johns County Building Department, on Lewis Speedway in St. Augustine, issues the permit and sends the inspectors. 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 Ponte Vedra Beach home on Beaches Energy or FPL?
Either is possible. Beaches Energy Services, which Jacksonville Beach residents created in 1915, names Ponte Vedra Beach and Palm Valley among the communities it serves, and FPL’s tariff lists South Ponte Vedra Beach. Your bill tells you; the installation is the same.
Can my Ponte Vedra Beach generator use natural gas?
Usually, where a main is in place: Peoples Gas lists Ponte Vedra Beach in its St. Johns County tariff. Lots without a main use propane, and the estimate confirms which you have.
Will my Ponte Vedra Beach association need to approve it?
Many associations here review exterior equipment first. GenerX assembles what the board asks for: placement drawing, sound data and a screening plan.
How fast does GenerX respond to Ponte Vedra Beach repair calls?
Ponte Vedra Beach is covered from our nearest facility, with parts stocked at our local facility. We take emergency calls 24/7, and a regional outage brings our statewide fleet to the First Coast.
