"My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Ariel Musibay and AlphaOmega Solutions. Ariel and his team installed our generator and it was a great experience. We had had a few companies come out to bid and they were all late and didn't listen to our needs. Ariel listened, explained and gave us a very fair quote. The entire crew was wonderful to work with. They always took the time to answer my questions and give a smile. It looks awesome! When it came time to show us how it works Ariel came and personally gave us a tutorial. I have lived in Miami almost my entire life and I have not ever had a company treat us with so much respect. They are professional and competent. Look no further. Hire AlphaOmega Solutions!"

"Alejandro is very professional and thorough. He came to evaluate the project ( EV charger installation) on a weekend. Subsequently, he provided a thorough and reasonable estimate as well as advice regarding the equipment to install and the rationale for obtaining city permits. He was able to navigate all of this through the lockdown and completed the job in an expert manner. He has offered to come back to facilitate the city inspection. In addition there is a one year warranty on his installation. I highly recommend his company for your electrical needs."

"I only have positive things to talk about this company. I used them to install a new electrical system, and enhance my light fixtures. I found them on YGRENE preferred list. They're super professional, prompt, honest and hard working team. I am very pleased with their work. I love the communication with Pedro (owner). You can tell he takes great pride in providing the best experience for the customers. The receptionist Mariana was always communicative throughout the process. The technician were super professional and got the job done fast. I work in the real estate business and sometimes its hard to find a honest, professional and good quality electrician contractor to refer to clients. Now I have an electrician to call for my needs and refer to my clients. Great experience. I highly recommend them for all electrical repair or upgrade needs including generators, solar panels, cameras. You name it. They do it all."

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.

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.
