About LumoWatt

LumoWattis a brand-agnostic directory for standby generator installation. Unlike a manufacturer's dealer locator, we don't favor any single brand — and unlike generic lead-gen platforms, we don't resell your contact information to five contractors at once.

Editorial independence: our comparison and guide content is written and fact-checked by our editorial team, reviewed for technical accuracy, and never influenced by which installers or brands pay for featured placement. See our editorial policy for specifics.

Who's behind this:LumoWatt is built and run by Zach McKee. The starting problem was simple: homeowners researching backup power end up choosing between a single manufacturer's dealer locator or a lead-gen form that hands their contact information to a pile of contractors at once. Every listing here is checked against the installer's state licensing board before it goes live, and no listing can pay its way into that check passing.
