See 10RESV specs, options and pricingAbout “installed from” prices. Every KOHLER generator is a custom installation. The “installed from” price is our starting package for that model (generator, standard automatic transfer switch, standard gas and electrical connections, permit handling and start-up). Your final price depends on generator placement, gas line size and length, electrical panel condition and local permit fees, so we confirm it with a free on-site estimate before any work begins. KOHLER’s published MSRP for the generator alone runs from $3,946 (10RESV) to $7,546 (26RCA); the difference is transfer switch, materials, labor and permits.
Installing a KOHLER generator in Lake County, IL
Lake County homes are mostly on natural gas, and many North Shore properties have two air conditioners, a finished basement with a sump and ejector pump, and a detached garage or pool equipment. That load profile usually calls for a KOHLER 20RCA or 26RCA with the RXT transfer switch’s load-management board, which lets one generator carry both AC units by briefly staging them. For tighter lots in Highland Park, Wilmette or Evanston, the 30-inch-wide 10RESV and 12RESV fit side yards where a full-size unit will not, and every current KOHLER model can be installed 18 inches from the house.
Each village issues its own permits and has its own noise and setback rules; we handle the electrical and gas permits, plat requirements and inspections. Lakefront and older homes sometimes need a service upgrade or a service-entrance-rated switch, which we identify at the free estimate so the quote is complete.
Lake County KOHLER FAQs
Who installs KOHLER generators in Lake Forest, Libertyville and Highland Park?
GSHA Services, LTD, an authorized KOHLER dealer with an office in Lake Bluff, installs and services KOHLER home generators throughout Lake County and the North Shore.
Can one KOHLER generator run two air conditioners?
Often yes. A 26RCA with the RXT load-management board can stage two central air conditioners so they do not start at the same moment; we confirm by measuring the compressors’ locked-rotor amps at the estimate.
What if my side yard is narrow?
The KOHLER 10RESV and 12RESV are 30.6 x 28 inches and can be placed 18 inches from the house. Where a larger unit is needed, we look at rear-yard placement with a longer gas run.
How much does a KOHLER generator cost installed in Lake County?
Installed packages start at $8,000 for the 10RESV and $12,000 for the 26RCA. Service-entrance switches, service upgrades and long gas runs are the usual adders on larger North Shore homes; the free on-site estimate confirms your price.
