"I worked with Obed on this project. He was friendly, responsive, and very professional. He helped me install a new circuit and outlet for an EV charger, along with some other light electrical work. His price was fair and competitive with other bids I received, and the work was completed timely and competently. I will reach out to him again for any electrical needs."

"My solar system was installed by a now bankrupt company. I loss power totally in May. Solar Services came in and found the problem which was a bad inverter that was verified by the vendor SolarEdge who promptly sent out a replacement unit at no charge as the inverter was under warranty. Solar Service Pros replaced the defective unit and I'm up and running again in two weeks. Great service, will do business with them again!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.
