"Ric is an intelligent, hardworking, and thorough solar installer/business owner with a deserving team. I’ve been having issues with my system since installation 3 years ago. Gonna skip the story and just tell you that Ric fixed a botched install by a company that cons people, and a city inspector that signs off on anything. For 3 years, it’s been over $25k in true-up charges… I now have a fully functioning system with a battery backup, and I can monitor it all on my phone or computer. Ric told me what needed to be done, gave me a fair quote and a time frame: he nailed it!! Thank you Ric, your team, and I hope you get the business that you deserve. Sincerely, GR"

"I highly recommend Tony & Sons Electric for their exceptional service. The team exceeded expectations with their professionalism and efficiency. They ran power to my gate, fixed power issues in my second house, replaced a breaker box, installed new lights, and added two exterior plugs, all flawlessly executed. Each task was handled with precision and the work areas were kept clean. I appreciate the warranty provided, adding an extra layer of trust. If you need reliable and high-quality electrical services, Tony & Sons Electric is the go-to company. Thank you, make sure to ask for Edgar, it was an outstanding experience."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, electric-start snow blowers need to be plugged in to start, but you can unplug them and go once they’re up and running. Simply plug the snow blower into an outdoor outlet and press the start button. Once it starts, you can unplug it and use it freely. The idea for these types of snow blowers is to simplify the starting process from the typical pull-string starts.

Unless you’re a licensed electrician with extensive experience in upgrading electric panels, you must hire a professional for any electrical work. A licensed electrician will make sure your breaker is upgraded safely and in compliance with local codes. Your pro will also take care of any permits and inspections that are needed.

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.

If you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window.
