"Excellent work. From the start he showed professionalism, punctuality, and great attention to detail. The installation was clean, well organized, and working perfectly both indoors and outdoors. He also explained everything clearly and made sure everything was safe and ready to use. I definitely recommend him for any electrical work — reliable service and top-quality results."

"I went with a local company that has been around for decades because I want an installer who will be here when I need service or follow-up in the future. Hegge Electric installed panels, subcontracted roofing preparation and completed all approvals in a timely manner with excellent workmanship. They completely refinished interior walls where drywall had to be removed for conduit, and you can't tell it was ever done! The system works perfectly and we are enjoying our green energy from a local company with a long reputation."

"Very well-nice to see a crew enjoy themselves while working. Had an issue with humming from new installation and the crew came back out immediately and switched out the lights. They do not repair holes needed for new installation but have a great guy to refer you too- Pleased with the efficiency and quality of work."

"I would have appreciated being shown how to reset the unit I had installed. The other prices I had received were slightly less but installers weren't as available as this contractor was."

"We live in the Joshua Tree area and had a Kohler generator installed in 2021. Unfortunately, by 2025, it had failed. A local electrical contractor inspected it but couldn’t repair the issue, so we turned to the expert—Pete Poillon. I’m incredibly glad we did. Pete promptly diagnosed the problem: the controller board needed replacing. Kohler confirmed the part was covered under warranty, but required us to contact their Rancho Cucamonga service location. That’s when things got costly. They charged $3.95 per mile plus $185 per hour for travel time, bringing the total service estimate to a staggering $1,500–$1,800. In hindsight, choosing a Kohler generator was a major misstep. If we had gone with Generac, warranty service would have been handled locally by Poillon Electric at no extra charge. Lesson learned—we won’t make that mistake"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.
