Cummins · Kohler · Briggs & Stratton · Generac
Stay powered through Lowcountry storms. Certified installation and service for Cummins, Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, and Generac standby generators.
About Our Generator Services
From summer thunderstorms to hurricane season, Lowcountry weather doesn't ask permission. A whole-home standby generator means your AC keeps running, your refrigerator stays cold, your sump pumps keep working, and your family stays comfortable — automatically, the moment the power goes out.
Blue Water Electric is your local authorized Cummins dealer for sales, installation, and service — the brand we chose for our own homes and office. We're also certified to install Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, and Generac, so we'll help you choose the right unit for your home, your budget, and the loads you actually want to back up.
Every installation includes a full site assessment, a professionally sized unit, a code-compliant automatic transfer switch, permitted installation, and a complete walkthrough. After install, we offer ongoing service and maintenance — because a generator is only useful if it starts when you need it.

How We Work
We visit your home to evaluate your electrical service, fuel options (natural gas or propane), pad location, and which loads you actually want backed up. Honest sizing, honest pricing.
We help you choose the right size and brand — Cummins, Kohler, Briggs & Stratton, or Generac — then handle all permitting, utility notifications, and HOA paperwork on your behalf.
Licensed electricians install the generator, automatic transfer switch, and any required electrical upgrades. We test under load, configure remote monitoring, and walk you through operation.
