Since day one, we’ve been dedicated to providing our community with a level of service in HVAC that just doesn’t currently exist. Over 30 years of experience. Their former experience of operating a successful HVAC company led to them opening Peak Home Performance with a passion and dedication unseen in our area.

"They were professional and helped us solve the problem."

"Stewart Anderson and crew were the ultimate professionals. The initial quote was on target. The installation of our sound system was both esthetically appealing to the eye and the sound permeating our home and balcony are perfectly sounding to the ear. The gentlemen wore booties and vacuumed the entire house during and after installation ensuring cleanliness. Stewart promised to answer any and all questions about the system- having a multitude of inquiries after installation, Stewart was true to his word...he has answered all questions via phone, with an additional trip to my home. This company is the exemplar for others."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

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.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.
