"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."

"I have been in the Military for 10 years now. With that being said, Hiring Ted Kennedy, LLC was the best company in every aspect that I would look for in a professional company. I cannot say enough that would do Mr. Kennedy justice and the way he has handled our situation. Not only was he the least expensive quote we received, but also had more knowledge about older homes than anyone else. You could say that our home project was 70+ years old, and in my opinion, a nightmare for any contractor. Mr Kennedy took the project head on. The professionalism, courtesy, working well within budget, and dedication made him the best I have ever seen"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.
