Installer landscape

Maine (Northern New England) is a propane or electric first standby market. Fuel oil still heats 50.3% of homes and utility gas only 8.3% (ACS 2024), so a standby install often forces a new fuel decision, usually propane (16.0% already heat that way). In 2024, Maine electricity customers averaged 29.1 hours without power (more than double the 10.2-hour U.S. average; EIA Electric Power Annual Table 11.3). Dominant drivers in this research pass: nor'easters, ice, tree fall. This directory lists 137 researched installers with website generator signal (88 with a dedicated generator page, 17 with repeated signal, 32 with at least one clear mention). That is a moderate market by national listing volume, ranking #29 of 50. Top city clusters in the directory: Westbrook (5), Portland (5), Windham (4), Saco (4).

Fuel, codes, and cost context

Budget for propane tank, pad, and refill logistics in addition to the electrical package; gas-line savings rarely apply. NEC edition in effect in this research pass (verified as of August 2026): 2026. We do not publish fabricated statewide average install prices.

Before you call

Maine posted 29.1 average outage hours in 2024 with 3.64 interruptions, more outage time than Florida, North Carolina, or Texas that same year. EIA ties much of that to trees on distribution lines. With 50.3% of homes still heating on fuel oil and only 8.3% on utility gas, most standby installs start with a propane tank decision rather than a gas-line tap. Use the 137 researched listings below as a starting point, not an endorsement. Verify licensing, insurance, references, and recent standby work yourself.

Fuel and outage figures sourced from ACS 2024 and EIA 2024; NEC and licensing notes verified as of 2026-08-07. Not legal advice. Confirm with your AHJ.
