What size generator do I need for my house?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-size-generator-do-i-need.htm">Generator size requirements</a> vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:</p><ul><li><p>1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW</p></li><li><p>1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW</p></li><li><p>2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW</p></li><li><p>2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW</p></li><li><p>3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+</p></li></ul><p>Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.</p></div>

Is it OK for my AC to run all day?

• <div><p>If you have central air conditioning, it’s fine to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-ac-can-run-continuously.htm">run your AC all day</a> if that’s what you want—as long as the AC unit is in good condition. But if your AC runs constantly when you don’t want it to, there may be a problem with your system (like the ones we’ve mentioned above). Window AC units and wall air conditioners aren’t as powerful as central AC, so you should only run those kinds of air conditioners for eight to 12 hours at a time. </p></div>

Q: What incentives or rebates are available for home wind turbine installation?

Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.</p></div>

Q: Which additional initiatives should I undertake concurrently to enhance my home's appeal?

• <div><p>You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.</p></div>

Gave me a quote significantly lower than the other companies I called (but not so much lower as to be suspect). No up front payments. Only accepted payment once job was done. Cleaned up their mess when the job was done. Moved quickly and efficiently to get the job done. Friendly.
