"I am 77 and not very healthy. This bad and stressful experience is taking a toll on me I need your HELP as soon as possible. June 25, 2025 ...The contractor's employees installed different BRAND electrical PANELS than what was listed in my CONTRACT. July 26, 2025...After several exchanges of texts, I agreed to have only one of the two electric PANELS (The inside one) replaced to fix his mistake. I accepted to have only one of the two electrical panels replaced to fix his mistake in exchange for him providing a professional worker to fix and paint without extra charge the sheetrock damaged around the electrical box during the installation. On June 26, 2025, I paid him $2,000. (see receipt in the PDF file attached). On July 3, 2025 before the second inside electrical panel was replaced, the Palm Beach inspector came and FAILED the inspection. On the same day that he replaced one instead of two of the wrong electrical panels (which I had agreed to), the electrician texted me that he wanted another $1,000. cash before he gets the sheetrock repaired/painted and before he schedule the inspection and before the inspection PASS. I don't trust him anymore. He is at least 6'3'', he weighs over 300 pounds and he scares me. I live alone and I don't want him in my home anymore. Because I did not want to give him $1,000. that day and because I texted him back that I would give him the final payment after the work would be fully completed and pass the inspection, ...he became furious. He texted me that my refusal to pay $1,000. on command, that day, was disrespectful and he waved the $2,000. balance that I owe him (see exchange of texts attached) and he does not want to have anything to do with me and he texted me to find another electrician to finish the work and he does not want to fix the sheetrock and call FPL and schedule the inspector to PASS the permit. It is not that simple! The Palm Beach County Inspector even spoke to him and tried to arrange the inspection. He refused to do it until the balance was paid in full, so I offered to sign a page with a notary stating I agree to pay the balance once the work passed inspection. He wouldn't do that either and didn't want to cooperate at all. I cannot find any electrician now who wants to complete the work because they re afraid to take over the work of somebody else and they don t wanna take the responsibility so I m in a big mess because of WISEMINDS Electrical terminating his contract before finishing the work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
Generator size requirements vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:
1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW
1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW
2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW
2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW
3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+
Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.
While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.
