"I booked three electricians to give me a quote for a new 200 amp panel plus other wiring upgrades. Two of them came out and looked around but never got back with a quote! Ariel at A.D.I. Electrical, however, not only gave me a quote the same day, but followed up with outstanding performance and customer service.

"Stay away from this company. Unreliable, shoddy work, overpriced and does not keep their commitment for any of this! Shocking that I have to write this review but I do not want anyone else to have the same experience I did. I hired them several months ago to repair a broken outdoor outlet and several other small tasks. At that point last fall they were great! On time, professional and did the job efficiently. For $2000+. Less than 2 months later the outlet stopped working. I called to have them come back to repair that AND to remove some sconces before I had painters coming. They scheduled me for 12pm-2pm and didn't arrive until 4:40pm at which point it was too dark outside to repair the outlet so the only work that was performed was removing 2 sets of sconces. $400. The painting in the house is done so I need the sconces put back up and that darn outlet repaired. I called a week ago to get on the schedule. I was promised a call back in 24 hours to schedule. I never received a call. I had to call them a week later at which point I was told they could not get to me for another week or 2. That was unacceptable and, quite frankly, I didn't trust that they would follow through. After letting them know how angry I was, they called me to say they would send a technician this morning between 9:00am and 11:00am. At 10:09am they called to say they were not coming and could they come next week. My answer was NO. I want a refund for the work they did on the broken outlet and I will find another more reliable electrician. Not sure what happened to their customer service, but things appear to have changed internally and it has negatively impacted their practice. A shame. A company that was highly regarded is now the place that no one should call."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Whole-house generators can last 20 to 40 years with normal operation and proper maintenance. If you look up the specifications for your generator, you may be able to find a lifespan rated in hours of operation. Life expectancy will vary depending on how often and for how long you use the generator each year. Choosing a fuel with low impact like natural gas or diesel can help generators last as long as possible.

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

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.
