"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

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

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.

Yes, whole-house generators run constantly for extended periods. Whole-house generators can run for longer periods of time than portable generators, but be careful. First, they may need regular applications of engine oil (as frequently as daily), depending on the engine design. Second, running constantly for several days will increase the wear and tear on the generator and shorten its lifespan.

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.
