"Mister Sparky is supposed to be an Electrical Franchise in the State of Florida. But, what they are is an "ORGANIZED CRIME Group" operating to defraud people from multiple offices throughout the state of Florida. This is NOT the case of 1 individual Contractor working without a license. My request to Angie's was for a license Electrical Contractor to have entered an Application for an Electrical Permit in the city of Miami Lakes, Florida where I live. A job that other local individual Licensed Electricians had quoted me $800-$900 dollars. But, I choose Mister Sparky because of being a Franchise group, I thought they would have been more reputable and professional and I paid them in full $4,152 on the day they came to my home. Jean, the electrician who came to my home and took my money on Friday August 8, told me they would enter the Permit Application into the city of Miami Lakes in 3 days on Monday 11, 2025. Since then, I have called numerous times to multiple phone number and NO one has called me back, including Bruce Howard Fort, Jr the person holding an Electrical Contractors License showing on the signed contract."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer 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.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.
