"Mario and his crew did an excellent job with my barn wiring and lighting. They took a two or three day job and made it a long single day effort. Their work is clean, measured and professional. The guys are friendly and skilled. Definitely going to have them do some additional work down the road with an RV garage and whole house generator install."

"Garth and Andy from Ponderosa Electric came to my house and reviewed my projects. They were very knowledgeable and had great ideas for me. They directed me to Home Depot and who to talk to there for my supplies. They are coming back to do the work next week. Although Garth had a medical issue and couldn’t be here, Andy was very capable. He installed all lights, tested them, made sure I was happy, and cleaned up any mess. He was polite and professional. Even though he was working solo, he assured me he would take whatever time was needed to get the work done correctly, and he did. I am very pleased and would recommend them."

"Great job mounting my lights. Helped remove an old solid wood 70’s box light. Had some issues getting the living ceiling fan installed. My previous fan had one switch for the fan and one for the light. I guess the wiring is old and incompatible with this new fancy fan. So now one light switch turns the fan and light on and the other switch that controled the old fan does nothing. Thankfully the fan can with a remote control so I use that to turn the fan on and off and it works just fine as a work around. I am very happy with the service provided and will use them again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.
