"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

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

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.

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.
