"Arizona Backup Power provided an outstanding job installing our generator on our Scottsdale home, as well as at the same time upgrading dated main electrical panel. Their team was highly informative, explaining the functionality and operation of the generator in detail. They managed the design, permitting, gas line, and entire installation process with great professionalism, leaving no room for error. Now we are happy knowing that when a power outage strikes, the generator will promptly kick into action, a testament to their meticulous installation. The price was quite reasonable given the superior quality of the generator and their exemplary service. Arizona Backup Power delivers a sense of security and preparedness that's simply invaluable, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a reliable backup power solution."

"I had a 220 line installed for our hot tub. I called several electricians who didn’t call back. Rodney, the owner of TEV, answered the phone! And came the next day. He did a great job, was efficient, knowledgeable and best of all reasonably priced. It’s nice to have quality work and not feel like you’re getting fleeced or oversold. I highly recommend Rodney and his crew"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

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.
