Winter storms, wildfire-related outages, and aging electrical grids make backup power more than a luxury across Montana. A properly sized mt generator keeps lights, heat, medical devices, and remote-work equipment running no matter what the utility does. Homeowners who install a standby unit add safety, comfort, and property value—especially when the project is designed, costed, and documented through CountBricks’ AI-driven workflow.
Our field teams use CountBricks’ mobile voice platform to walk the property, calling out distances, panel amperage, and fuel line locations. The AI converts that conversation into an immediate digital scope of work.
CountBricks pulls live Montana supplier feeds for copper wire, transfer switches, concrete pads, and the generator itself. Local labor averages are layered in, giving homeowners an accurate price for their mt generator within minutes—no spreadsheet guesswork.
If you already have house plans, simply upload them to CountBricks.com/services. The system identifies panel locations, fuel routes, and clearance zones, then auto-calculates conduit runs and trench lengths. That precision prevents costly change orders during construction.
Once costs are confirmed, our platform generates a branded CountBricks proposal complete with scope narrative, line-item budget, and Gantt schedule. The same data feeds a permitting packet that aligns with Montana’s electrical and environmental rules.
Homeowners often ask, “What size generator do I really need?” A quick wattage chart can miss nuances like motor start-up surges or simultaneous appliance loads. CountBricks engineers solve this by combining AI usage modeling with your personal priorities.
• Essential loads only: furnace, refrigerator, lights (8–10 kW)
• Partial house: kitchen, well pump, home office, selective HVAC (12–16 kW)
• Whole-house comfort: all circuits, central air, EV charger (18–26 kW)
1. Natural gas: Unlimited run-time if your home has utility gas service.
2. Propane: Flexible tank placement for rural sites; schedule refills ahead of storm season.
3. Diesel: High output for large estates, but winter additive and venting are critical.
1. Concrete pad placement and cure
2. Delivery and craned placement of the mt generator
3. Gas line trench and bonding inspection
4. Automatic transfer switch installation beside main panel
5. Conduit pulls, terminations, and megger testing
6. Startup, load-bank test, and homeowner orientation
Throughout each step, technicians log voice notes into the CountBricks mobile app, updating both the schedule and the final invoice in real time.
• Generator brand and warranty length
• Distance from fuel source to unit
• Electrical panel upgrade (if service is less than 200 amp)
• Soil conditions affecting trenching labor
• Remote monitoring accessories
CountBricks quantifies each factor in your estimate, so there are no surprises on closing day.
A standby mt generator averages \$9,500–\$14,000 installed. Many insurers offer premium discounts for homes with permanent backup power, and realtors report a 52 % resale recoup in mountain markets. CountBricks partners with local lenders to bundle project financing at competitive rates—ask about our zero-interest six-month plan.
• Annual oil and filter change
• Spark plug and air filter every 24 months
• Battery inspection before each winter
Our subscription service schedules these tasks automatically and logs each visit to your CountBricks homeowner portal, preserving warranty compliance.

When the Patterson family purchased a 4,200 sq ft ranch home outside Billings, frequent brownouts threatened their well pump and home office servers. They contacted CountBricks for a comprehensive mt generator solution.
During a 14-minute voice walkthrough, our technician captured panel amperage, appliance list, and gas meter distance. CountBricks’ AI instantly sized a 22 kW generator and calculated 56 ft of trenching with three 90-degree sweeps.
The homeowners viewed a live itemized quote: generator \$7,880, pad and trench \$1,920, electrical integration \$2,100, commissioning \$560. Because pricing pulled straight from regional suppliers, there were zero mid-project markups.
1. Pad poured on Day 1
2. Generator set and wired by Day 3
3. Gas inspection passed by Day 4
4. Load-bank acceptance on Day 5
Snowfall on Day 6 caused a city-wide outage; the Patterson home never flickered.
• Plan pad location where snow removal won’t drift against vents
• Install Wi-Fi monitoring to receive self-test alerts on your phone
• Pair generator with a smart transfer switch to prioritize circuits automatically
