The panhandle’s capital city is famous for tree-lined streets, humid summers, and hurricane-season blackouts. A properly sized Tallahassee generator keeps lights, HVAC, and critical appliances running when the grid fails. CountBricks combines real-time material pricing, AI voice estimates, and blueprint takeoffs to deliver reliable standby power solutions for every home style—from 1940s bungalows near Midtown to new builds in Southwood.
• Average 58 thunderstorm days per year
• Peak hurricane threats from June to November
• Frequent humidity spikes that make loss of air-conditioning a health hazard
Generators are no longer a luxury; they are an essential component of resilient residential construction. CountBricks integrates generator planning early in the design or remodel phase so clients never scramble for power after the final inspection.
Portable vs. Standby
Portable units serve small loads but require manual setup and fuel management. Standby systems connect directly to a home’s natural gas or propane line and engage automatically within seconds of an outage—ideal for Tallahassee’s sudden summer storms.
1. We upload your existing plans or scan your panel schedule with our AI mobile tool.
2. CountBricks software maps essential circuits—HVAC, fridge, well pump—then models starting amperage.
3. Real-time supplier feeds show current pricing on 12 kW-to-26 kW generators.
4. The estimator recommends the smallest unit that meets a 25 percent future-load buffer.
Homeowners receive an audio walkthrough of the calculation plus an auto-generated PDF at CountBricks.com/portfolio for full transparency.

A 1938 craftsman near Lake Ella faced weekly voltage drops and two prolonged outages last summer. The homeowners wanted standby power but feared disrupting their historic façade.
• Our AI takeoff mapped the main panel from a smartphone photo and flagged knob-and-tube sections for replacement.
• A low-profile 14 kW generator fit behind existing shrubbery; custom louver panels matched the wood lap siding.
• Seamless underground propane routing avoided the brick walkway, preserving curb appeal.
1. Installation completed in three working days—two faster than the neighborhood average.
2. First outage test showed zero light flicker during transfer, validating load calculations.
3. Home value appraisal noted a 4 percent increase attributed to standby power.
Generators thrive on exercise. CountBricks programs a weekly 12-minute self-test at 50 percent load, sending data to our cloud.

• Priority permit routing through City of Tallahassee portals
• Volume-based equipment discounts shared directly with partners
• Co-branded client literature generated automatically from CountBricks templates
Whether you’re renovating a historic gem or breaking ground on a modern smart home, CountBricks delivers Tallahassee generator solutions that integrate seamlessly into your construction timeline—and your bottom line.
