"Highly recommend contacting them for electrical work! Responded quickly to come and give a quote for a generator hook up. Explained everything thoroughly and gave helpful suggestions as this was my first experience getting a generator to power the house. Very reasonable pricing. From first contact to getting it installed in under 2 weeks. Very happy!!"

"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."

"I hired Elevate Electric to install multiple electrical outlets in my basement after a waterproofing project. Kyle installed electrical outlets, ran a new circuit, and upgraded a breaker. The result looks outstanding! The new circuit wire is routed cleanly and he even dressed up some previous wiring too. Kyle shaped conduit around existing items along the basement wall making the whole utility room look good. This is probably the 4th time I have hired Kyle for electrical work. He consistently does great work. The quality is top notch and his pricing is extremely fair. You cannot go wrong with Elevate."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.
