"We have had Nick from Destiny Electric over for electrical work multiple times in the past few years, to include a couple of minor issues (GFCI outlet failure), as well as adding electrical boxes/switches on a DIY bathroom model we did. Most recently (03/2020), Nick came out and installed new breakers and ran new wire to an electric tankless water heater we were installing while a plumbing company was re-piping our house. Nick was prompt, professional, courteous and stayed until just before 6:00 PM on a Friday to make sure it was ready for the plumbers the following Monday. The water heater works flawlessly, and Nick again did a very clean and thorough job with the intstall."

"Job was finished and it looks good! Quoted me over the phone around $450 including 10 feet to install a 240 V outlet so I hired him on the spot but total wound up being $600 after he finished. Might have misunderstood his quote over the phone and if it’s my fault then my apologies just sharing so everyone else can know to obtain a more specific quote for their projects before starting work."

"Jose showed up on time and converted a swag hanging plug in stained glass lamp into a ceiling fixture over my dining room table. It took him about 30 minutes and it looks great. He was such a pleasure to work with and I am very happy with the results. The lamp is special to me because my mom made it over 40 years ago."

Generator Installation questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

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.

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.

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.
