"I needed some electrical work done on our family room remodel. Daniel was available same day to check out the job. He did a great job installing our new ceiling speakers, lights, and various plugs. Daniel has great communication and patience when dealing with customer requests. We will be using him for our next project in the garage. Thanks"

"Went very well. First time using this Angis list. Received a quick response from Angelino Electrical Services to come out. Other companies were scheduling anywhere to a week out. Surprisingly, there was no fee for Mr. Angelino coming out to the premises for an estimate. Other Electrical companies have a fee. Angelino quickly figured out the problem, said it's a quick fix. Along w he being here, he also looked at some other things I enquired about. The initial cost per hour was on the higher end, comparing it to some other electricians. The price for installation of a new outlet and a cover to another (now thinking about it) seemed to be pricy. Throughout the entire time Mr. Angelino was here, extremely nice and courteous individual, knowledgeable, clean, simply a great experience. Within making the appointment (over text) his employee was attentive with any questions or concerns I had (it made things comfortable without having any concerns having someone I don't know, especially hiring someone over an internet app/site). I will use him in the future for other work needed. Referral to anyone I know of any electrical issues."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

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.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator. 

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.
