"He is extremely attentive to your needs . What he says will happen , does! He keeps all appointments and thoroughly explains what he plans to do. He is one of the most reliable, ethical , conscience businessman I have ever dealt with. I have recommended him to friends . He actually went out of his way to help Ill friends deal with their generator problems even though he had not installed it. He made arrangements for someone to fix the generator when he was not able. Highly recommended !"

"Earlier today, I searched on Google for an electrician in the Farmington / Unionville CT area and IES came up with high ratings. I quickly called and Greg the owner picked up. He had a pretty packed day but knowing my issue where it impacted my furnace which meant no heat, he understood the urgency and said, he would be willing to stop by in route to his big job today. Within 30 mins or less, he was at my house and resolved my issue quickly. I plan to hire Greg for additional work as adding additional outlets in my garage and helping with a generator hookup. He def earned my business and I highly recommend him. I would like to wrap up this review with - e's a family man, very professional, reputable, and local - happy I came across his company earlier today!"

"If I could give Jeremy and his team 10 stars I would, they are simply that good! He has installed recess lighting in both of the houses we have owned. Both houses we have owned have a light switch connected to an outlet. He installed new lighting and made sure that the wiring to the outlet works without a switch. He did this for both our living room and upstairs master bedroom. We also asked him if he would install a generator plug outside as well. He installed it and made sure we knew A.) how to run the generator. B.) How to turn the panel off and switch the main breaker on for the generator and C.) Made sure he labeled all breaker switches we were able to use while using the generator to power the house. I will never use anyone but Jeremy and JMP Electric moving forward on any electrical for my house. I would highly recommend him and his company. He is just simply amazing. Look no further when looking to have someone do your electrical. You really won't find anyone better."

"They came out in the middle of a storm and promptly hooked the generator to my panel. While I thought I’d be running extension cords to my appliances it turned out that the whole house was up and running. I wish I had done this earlier. I would recommend MGT for any electrical needs. I will surely use them again."

Generator Install FAQs, 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.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

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.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.
