"Had to have a ceiling fan and light replaced; also light switches needed rearranging as well as a stacked switch installed. I called Power Surgez and spoke with Kenny (very kind and professional) on December 2nd around noon, and to my surprise, Kenny immediately assigned 2 electricians to come to my home early the following day (December 3, 2024). They completed all the work in approximately 2 hours. I love that Kenny not only dispatched his workers to my home, but he also communicated with me regularly. The 2 young men (John and Camden) who came to do the work were very polite, friendly and respectful. They were very attentive to what I needed done and patiently explained and answered my questions. They thoroughly cleaned up and left my house as they found it. I give Power Surgez, 5 stars along with the highest recommendation. I will definitely be calling Power Surgez for any future needs. Thank You for a Job Well Done."

"Very professional, extremely knowledgeable, and on time--they did a visit to see what the project entailed, then came back with parts to do the job. Steve explained everything to me and offered a couple of options to connect power. I will definitely call him first when I have the next project and would recommend his company to anyone needing electrical help."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.
