"The work is not yet complete, permitting process has just started. All of my contacts with the company so far have been very positive. Sales and customer service are handled in a highly professional manner. The final permits and certificates have been completed and closed. All of the people I dealt with at Reliable Power Systems were polite and professional, keeping me up to date on project status. A word of advice to homeowners considering installing a home generator, be prepared to wait for your city to approve permits and complete inspections. These were the items that took the most time, and over which you and company have no control. It is also best to choose a company, like Reliable Power Systems, that handles 100% of the work. I highly recommend this company."

"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

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

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. 

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.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.
