I worked with Hector, he is very good. I recommend them."

"GenJazz installed a Level 2 EV outlet in my garage that was not attached to my house. They had to trench and go under a walkway but accomplished this with ease. My Zelle wouldn?t send and I gave him a check. He was honest enough to tell me the Zelle transaction went through after all and offered to send back my check! It is difficult to find an honest businessman these days. They even offered to install a charging station I purchased from Amazon after they installed the plug. I am very satisfied with their service and high moral standards!"

"Alex was professional, knowledgeable, and a true team player. I really appreciated that he was local and took the time to come to my house to see exactly what was needed. He walked me through the permit and inspection process, which went smoothly thanks to his clear communication and expertise. He answered all my questions, explained everything in simple terms, and made sure I felt comfortable with each step. I also found his pricing to be very reasonable—affordable without cutting corners. The inspection went well, and it was clear the work was done right the first time. He showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and was respectful throughout the project. It’s hard to find someone so reliable and down-to-earth. I’m really glad I chose to work with Alex and would definitely call him again for future projects. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a solid, trustworthy electrician in the area!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A whole house generator can be worth the extra money for peace of mind if your home is prone to power outages for extended periods of time or if you have life-saving medical equipment that needs to maintain power at all times. These devices can also increase your home’s value, especially in areas prone to extreme weather and power outages.

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. 

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup.
