"Sergio did a fantastic job! Very happy with the clean install of my tier 2 charger and he added a plug down below my panel. Would recommend for any sort of EV charging installs! Clear communicator, showed up when he said he would and his services were well-priced!"

"I am just so super extremely happy with the quality of work done, no doubt exceeded my expectations. It was a challenging install to get it from the panel through up the wall, over the roof and then through the attic into the garage, about an 80 foot run. I’m extremely particular about clean minimalist aesthetics to match the modern home we have. Such beautiful work, looks like it was designed for the home. Honestly can’t wait to work with Bumblebee for future projects. His commercial experience really shines through."

"They were very responsive. The owner of the company was here the day after we called to inquire, and we liked his answers to all of our questions. We made an immediate decision to hire them to install a 'stand-by' generator. First, the delivery of the generator was amazingly fast and then the installation was done promptly and professionally. There were enough people here to complete the installation. Within a few days a stucco repair man was here to patch the necessary holes. All-in-all, the overall service, responsiveness and professionalism were of the highest standards. I highly recommend Mr. Ariel Kahane and his crew of ADI Electrical Services."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

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.
