"Ted and Robert arrived, got right t to it and within a few hours we had 2 ceiling fans installed, one which had no existing light so it was a more involved project. They were professional and stuck to their original quote! To say we are impressed is an understatement. We strongly recommend using Connole Electric."

"The office personnel were great, polite and friendly. Nick, the electrician, showed up on time, prepared and ready to work. He quickly installed a new ceiling light and alarm pad for us. He was polite, friendly and professional and he answered all our questions. We're very happy with the new fixture and working alarm pad. Will definitely call them again with any electrical needs."

"Ted and his crew were very neat, tidy and professional. He was able to find a carpenter to do some widening of the fan opening in a single day. The installation of the fan was flawless. It works and looks fantastic. I did experience some sticker shock but I believe that was because of the added cost of needing a bigger opening for the fan I purchased and the need to sub-contract a carpenter. I highly recommend them."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

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.
