"10 yr old Generac GP6500E wouldn’t start. Called around and many want to upsell to permanent. Found Franks and what a delight. Honest, down to earth, affordable for senior. Showed up on time. Changed oil, spark plug. Pulled carburetor and found it dirty and fouled. Got used one from his shop(same day) and installed. Gen started right up on one or two pulls. Battery was dead but showed us how to replace. Highly recommend Frank’s Generator."

"Cale, Kyle, and crew are superb. They just installed my whole house generator and I can't overstate how personable, knowledgeable, and neat they were. Communication is excellent. I had to wait 5 months to receive my Generac because of a sever nationwide backlog, but Cale kept me informed all along. There is no other electric company I will ever use from now on. Paradise, you rock!"

"Incredible experience. Matt and Miseal came to my 1960s era condo in rural CT to do an assessment of what I wanted. Matt (a veritable genius) recommended in order to save time (labor $) and to help bring my aging condo into the 20th century, to install the new Lutron Caseta system. Turns out, it’s Alexa, Google, and Apple compatible, in addition to just being wireless. Over the decades, Ive wired outlets, switches, ceiling fans, and fixtures of all types many, many times. This system is light years ahead of “old school”. With a simple Echo Dot or Echo Show and the affordably priced Caseta bridge, even my adult son could easily control my lighting and ceiling fans from his house or anywhere in the world. Incredulous! This system actually becomes part of your environment, so to speak. Anyhow, I got the quote a day or so later from Equipment Unlimited and was “dead nuts” right where I thought it would be and thought was reasonable. 1 week later, everything is done, working perfectly, not a single glitch. Again… incredulous. Matt and Miseal were neat and tidy, which was great because their working with me there did not ignite my OCD. Cleaned and used a tarp as they went from one area to another. If you’re looking to electrically update your home, consider yourself freaking lucky if you get Matt and Miseal. Personable, clean, on time, reasonable and yes, even a sense of humor; a rarity among electricians. EXCELLENT JOB, Matt and Miseal from Equipment Unlimited. You made this old swamp yankee a very happy guy."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.
