"The job got done and it gone done right! We contracted Elextron Electric to install a 61” chandelier in our dining room. They sent two technicians, Abi and Eliecer. They were early, courteous, experienced, knowledgeable and very professional. They worked well together and neatly got the job done. I will definitely call Elektron back."

"They diagnosed the problem we had with our generator just by the description given to them on the phone. We hire them on a regular basis now to do the generator maintenance. They have us on a yearly schedule and up to now we are satisfied with their work and believe me we have had other companies before and you cannot compare, very professional."

"Raymond was awesome. Professional, courteous and prompt. He was able to pinpoint the problem with my generator. He wasn't able to fix it on the spot because it was an electrical issue. I decided it wasn't worth the money since the generator was a few years old and decided to buy a tri fuel new one. Definately recommend Piper. Their customer service was great too!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

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

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

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.
