"I worked there for 2 years. Hired on as a helper and was promised after a year I’d get a promotion. Not only did I not get the promotion, my trainer did not train me properly. They stuck me with a garbage technician who flooded people’s houses out like he was a walking tsunami. Management does not care about you. Management cares more about what time they get home not you. Sure the hours are long, but they complain when you take your PTO. Expect your paychecks to be short too. Not only will they not get your paycheck right, but when they correct it they’ll tax it too. Yearly reviews are also garbage. They’ll grade you on everything; call backs, non warranties, how much damage you’ve done to a customer’s home. It isn’t bad that they review it with you, but some will effect you negatively on your closing rate if all you did was assist a technician and you didn’t sell it. I’m extremely upset regarding how they went about hiring me and training me. Extremely unprofessional and service calls are extremely slow. They were hiring way too many people when there wasn’t any work to be done. Some technicians even complained because they weren’t getting their 40 hours. The place is a train yard with more wrecked than salvageable. STAY AWAY."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

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.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.
