Site informationTerms of use

Plan with the tool. Verify in the field.

These terms define the calculator's planning purpose, professional boundaries, acceptable use, and responsibility for real-world project decisions.

Last updated August 2, 2026

01 / Acceptance and purpose

A budgeting aid—not a professional service.

By using Generator Budget, you agree to these terms. The site provides general educational information and planning estimates for U.S. standby-generator projects. It does not provide contracting, engineering, electrical, fuel-system, legal, insurance, tax, or code-compliance services.

02 / Estimate limitations

Real projects require local verification.

Calculator results are illustrative ranges based on versioned assumptions. Actual equipment, labor, permits, utility work, taxes, site conditions, code requirements, and contractor pricing may differ. A licensed local professional must confirm load, equipment, fuel pressure, pipe and conductor sizing, placement, setbacks, permits, and every safety requirement before purchase or installation.

03 / Your responsibility

Do not treat an estimate as approval.

You are responsible for how you use the result and for obtaining appropriate bids, inspections, approvals, professional advice, and utility coordination. Do not use the site for emergency decisions or as the sole basis for purchasing or installing equipment.

04 / Permitted use

Use the site honestly and without disruption.

You may use and share ordinary calculator results for personal planning and bid comparison. You may not interfere with the site, attempt unauthorized access, misrepresent the estimate as a certified quote, copy the site as your own service, or use automated activity that degrades availability.

05 / Content and external references

Sources inform the model; they do not endorse it.

Generator Budget branding, interface, explanatory content, and original model implementation are protected by applicable intellectual-property rules. External trademarks, product information, and linked material belong to their respective owners. A link does not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or continuing accuracy.

06 / Availability and liability

The service is provided as available.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the site is provided without warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or uninterrupted availability. Generator Budget is not responsible for project losses or decisions made from an unverified planning estimate. Rights that cannot legally be excluded remain unaffected.

07 / Changes and contact

Check the date before relying on these terms.

The tool and these terms may change as assumptions, features, or service providers change. Material revisions will update the date on this page. Send current corrections through the Contact page.
