Will my Dallas HOA require sign off before installation?

If you’re in Highland Park, Preston Hollow, Lakewood, or a master planned community in Far North Dallas, almost certainly yes. The HOA usually wants a placement plan, screening or landscaping around the unit, and confirmation that the generator stays under their decibel limit (55 to 65 at the property line is common). Grasten Power prepares the application package and goes through the review process for you. You’re not chasing board approvals on your own.
