"The work was necessary after my attempt to replace 2 outlets and a dual switch was unsuccessful. Because this was in our kitchen and we do not have a stove yet, the issue was preventing us from cooking. Johnny scheduled the work the same day that I called, late in the afternoon on a Friday, and accommodated my schedule. He was very courteous not only while gathering the information as to what I had done, but also while working on the issue. In less than an hour, the issue was resolved and he explained what he found. Because of the unknown nature of the problem there was no quote. I was surprised in a good way by how much he wanted for the work, which included installation of 2 GFCIs and resolving issues with 2 separate circuits. He asked for less than half of what I had been quoted by 2 other companies who could not get to our home that day. I would highly recommend L.J.I to anyone."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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.
