"Tony and his crew were great. They were there on time and cleaned up their mess every day before they would leave. Tony would listen to my concerns and reassure me that everything would turn out,and they did. I think they did such a great job that I asked him Tony if he could spruce up my bathroom. Thank you Tony and Crew."

"Exceptional service and communication. All aspects of the generator install were flawless. The office communicated all phases perfectly and executed the plan as scheduled. The installation team was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and diligent. The team of 3 installers worked like a well oiled machine, keeping the installation moving forward and completing the install in a timely fashion. Once completed, they went over the operation of the generator in a clear and easily understandable step by step instructions. The grounds were left clean, prior to departure. Short Circuit is an excellently run operation."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.
