"Amazing communication, in this industry that’s very hard to find. Got in and had the whole house rough wired in just a couple days. Used quality materials and installed everything cleanly. Asked me lots of questions about placement of fixtures and outlets to insure I was happy. Highly recommended. B. Taylor"

"Brandon (Sunrise Electrical) responded next day to my email. Visited job day after, explained replacement and upgrade to main (burned up) panel, current grounding requirements, , and permit process. Submitted bid next day. This type of work may be twice as expensive as youâ re thinking, but you probably need licensed, bonded , etc. with good equipment and crew. We were confident they would do the job as described. They worked hard to prioritize our repairs even though the our county was in the midst of disastrous storms and there were several emergencies they were dealing with concurrently. Their work included exterior stucco around new panel and crawling under house to attach the new ground wire. They compted us a fix of an adjacent gate latch and repair of a suspect circuit in the garage. Will hire again for repairs or upgrades."

"Although parts were delayed due to covid19, Tom kept in touch with me along the way to insure that I had not been forgotten. Once the parts arrived, Tom quickly performed the work needed. He even came back the next day just to check up on the generator, install a new spark plug at no charge and insure all was working well."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

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.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

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. 

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.
