"I made contact with HA on Sunday 07/08/2018. I didn't expect to get a call back the same day but Chris w/ Ryder Electric called and he was able to schedule the next day. He showed up promptly at 7am on 07/09. After explaining my problems with damaged wires (due to squirrels in the attic) he and his helper jumped in and had the problems resolved in no time. I was very impressed with their work attitude, honesty and knowledge. Thanks Ryder!"

"John and Dave are the best electricians I have found in Grand Junction. They do good work and understand customer service. John bid the job and didn't try to charge any extras after getting it, which speaks volumes about his character. That's a game many contractors play and it was refreshing to hire someone that didn't do it. I would highly recommend calling Steeds, LLC first if you need an electrician in the grand valley area."

"So awesome! I needed old fencing & large items taken away, but most places cater to construction sites, so they're super expensive w/ set pricing. Trent was great! He contacted me right away. Then he asked for pics before quoting an amount that was fair and affordable. Truly a life saver!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.
