Financial Benefits of Generator Leasing

Leasing a generator gives you control over your budget while still offering full protection. Home Power Systems works with families across upstate New York to make standby power more accessible. Here are some key financial benefits:

  • Low upfront cost: You don’t need a large down payment. Get dependable backup power without a major initial investment.
  • Predictable monthly payments: Know what to expect each month with consistent lease terms.
  • Access to high-quality equipment: Leasing gives you access to premium systems without the cost of full ownership.
  • No depreciation concerns: Leasing avoids long-term value loss and equipment aging.
  • Possible tax deductions: Depending on how the generator is used, your payments may be deductible. Check with a tax advisor.
  • Easy upgrades: You can explore new technology or a different setup at the end of your lease.

What You Can Expect With a Generator Lease

Leasing a generator is straightforward, but it’s helpful to know what’s involved. Here’s what you can expect during and after the process.

What’s the lease process?

After you contact Home Power Systems, we’ll schedule a visit to assess your home’s needs. Based on that, we’ll recommend a properly sized system, walk through your lease terms, and begin the installation process. Most systems are installed in just a day or two, depending on the setup.

What happens at the end of the lease?

You’ve got options. When your lease ends, you can return the generator, renew your lease, or choose to buy it out. If you’re happy with the equipment and want to keep it, we’ll offer a fair market value quote for purchase. Some homeowners take this opportunity to upgrade to a newer model, especially if their power needs have changed or if new technology has become available. Whether you continue leasing, make a purchase, or explore a different setup, we’ll walk you through each path and help you make the decision that fits your home best.

Is my monthly rental payment tax deductible?

Possibly. If the generator supports a home office or business use, you may be able to deduct part of the cost. It’s best to ask a qualified tax professional for guidance.

Who do I turn to for warranty service?

You call us. As your local partner, Home Power Systems handles warranty service, repairs, and maintenance throughout the lease. We’re based right here in New York and ready to respond when you need us.

What interest rate am I paying?

Generator leasing isn’t the same as a loan, so there’s no traditional interest rate. Instead, your monthly payment covers use of the equipment and any included services. Everything is laid out clearly up front, and there are no surprises.

When do my lease payments start?

Payments begin once your system is fully installed and ready to run. You won’t pay anything until your generator is active and protecting your home.

Conclusion

In places like Rochester, Buffalo, and Syracuse, having a standby generator isn’t a luxury. It’s a smart way to keep your family safe, your home functional, and your peace of mind intact when the power goes out.

Leasing makes that protection easier to afford. With low upfront costs, reliable monthly payments, and local support whenever you need it, Home Power Systems is here to help. We’ve worked with homeowners across New York to deliver dependable power without the financial strain of a full purchase.

Client Testimonials

What Customers 
Say About Us

On the hottest day yet in recorded history, on the morning after the Independence Day holiday, the team of Jeff, Wayne, Steve and Isaac appeared before 8:00, ready to go to work. The coordination and efficiency on display over the next few hours brought to mind a military exercise. And they did this in a very customer friendly manner. The completed installation is beautiful, they left their work areas immaculate, and shrubs in the installation area were gently treated. I also want to acknowledge our salesman, Jeff, who worked hard to secure our business. I am so glad we decided to go with HPS...
