"Allied Electric installed some Patio heaters for me, which also required upgrades to my electric panel. The entire process went smoothly and quickly - about a week from first engagement to job completion, and that included local permitting (which Allied managed) around the holiday weekend. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and knowledgeable, from Amber in the office, to Marioâ s inspection and quote, to Luisâ and Codyâ s installation. We are really enjoying being able to use our patio in the wintertime- Many thanks to the friendly Proâ s at Allied Electric!"

"I would highly recommend Anthony from A Squared Electical for any of your electrical needs. Anthony communicated with us several times prior to coming to be certain of our needs. He arrived on time, was efficient, courteous and very knowledgeable. He showed concern for our home by putting down a drop cloth and cleaned up afterwards. He replaced 3 hanging ceiling lights; 1 bathroom light fixture, and 1 hanging ceiling fan. He also repaired a nonfunctional wall socket; as well as, installed several dimmer switches. We are having him come back to install addition lighting in our garage and replace the bathroom fan. Anthony will be our go-to person for any electrical needs we may have."

"When what was suppose to have been an easy DIY project of installing LED lighting in my daughter's bedroom became a nightmare, I called Pur Solar and Nick was sent out to do an initial evaluation. He was honest and efficient in not only fixing what we had tried doing, but explaining why our DIY project did not work out. He expertly installed new LED lighting and it looks great! Communication on the office staff was wonderful and they always took the time to answer all of my questions. If we have any other electrical needs, I know who I will be calling :)"

"Duke did a great job installing the grab bars in my elderly parents bathroom. He is very knowledgeable in the construction field so can do just about anything you need done in your home. He is friendly and professional. He has very affordable rates which I appreciate since I'm retired and on limited income. I will definitely hire him again and encourage anyone reading this review to call him."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
