"I claimed a deal with this company for a $99 ceiling fan replacement and added in my note that I had a significant amount of other work to be done and happy to pay them for the extra work. That was 10 days ago. I have called daily as well as emailed through Angi. I didn't hear back even though I have left a message each time. Sad because the reviews seemed excellent. I can understand missing one message, or even a quick call back to say he's really busy. But I got none of that. He has his direct line in the description as well as the number from Angi and I've called both ways. Do yourself a favor and move on and hire someone else."

We are a locally owned and operated company that values honesty and integrity in all aspects of our business. We offer a variety of electrical services that are customizable to each individual property. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results we look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction.

"Van Sant Electrical added a 240-volt circuit and wiring through our attic for our new backyard spa. We couldn't be happier with the result! The owner, Austin Van Sant, showed up on time for an estimate and answered all our questions and concerns. He and his team came to our home the next day and completed the work on schedule with a "can-do" attitude. When the work was near completion, they had us fill the spa with water and then tested all of the spa equipment and connections. And they made sure we knew how to operate the breakers and outlets safely. Their work got an A+ from the City's permit inspector. Like all home improvement projects, this one had unexpected challenges, including additional requests from my wife to replace a broken outdoor socket and add a 110-volt outlet next to the spa panel. They were able to expertly deal with every one of them, sometimes quite creatively. All the external conduits were painted to match our house stucco. When they finished the job, everything fit together neatly and looked professionally done - - - this was important to us and much appreciated. We are extremely glad we found this local company and chose them to make our spa dream come true! We will certainly use Van Sant Electrical again for any future electrical project!"

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.
