"Unfortunately, Hamilton installed the wrong type dryer outlet first, as Costco did not specify what was required. When I called in a panic, Brian Hamilton came out himself and installed the cofrect plug."

"In general, it went well. Everyone from Huft was very professional. The salesperson could not tell me the brand of water heater that would be installed. I had responded to ad on Angie's list. I should have paid attention to this. In the past, sales reps from other companies could tell me the brand name of the product, and if it qualified for a rebate. The product that was installed is an excellent product, but doesn't qualify for a rebate. The service personnel were all very polite and professional. What I would have done differently is pursued finding out the brand name of the product before it was installed and found out if it qualified for any SMUD rebates before making the purchase. In general, I would give Huft an excellent rating for service. They came back two days later when the water heater wasn't producing hot water, and installed new fuses. The technician was very professional and courteous. As a consumer, remember to jot down as many questions as possible before you meet with the contractor."

"Just had them come and install some can lighting in my hall way that I wanted for some time now. They were able to remove my old fixture in the hall and install 4 new LED can lights, even installed the dimmer I wanted with it. Much appreciated!"

"The owner responded quickly and came to our home for a free estimate within hours. He recommended installing a new outlet to prevent electrical issues down the road. The job was completed within 72hrs (due to the weekend) and we were very happy with the work. I would highly recommend and will use them again for future needs."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

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.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.
