"From the estimate to the end of the job we were pleased with Parker Service Company. Bud was the technician that came for the estimate. He was very knowledgeable about what we needed as well as giving us options of how things could be done. The estimate was half of what another company quoted. The following week Bud and two others came to do the work. They were professional and polite from start to finish. We will be doing a few things in the future using PSC again as well as requesting Bud and the same crew. Thanks for a job well done."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

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.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more.
