"Just had my 6551 model installed by Alpha & Omega Solutions here in So. Fla. If you are looking to buy a Generac generator in this area, do not bother calling anyone else. Ariel Musibay is honest & reliable, 2 qualities neither of which is found in abundance in this area. Believe me! I called 3 other companies: the first gave me a quote, then said he put it on the wrong form & gave me a higher price. Then said he'd match another bid. The other 2 were equally as bad. Ariel's gas & electric subs are extremely professional & everything was left cleaner than when they started. He gave me more than anyone else, and his bid was better than anyone else! His number is 954-439-5857. Call him first, and then the others if you want to waste your time with them."

"Outstanding Service from Levin Electric! I recently hired Levin Electric for some electrical work in my apartment, and I am thoroughly impressed by the quality of their service. From the moment I reached out, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. The electrician who came to my apartment was knowledgeable, courteous, and took the time to explain everything they were doing in a clear and concise manner. They worked quickly while ensuring that the job was done to the highest standard, and they even cleaned up afterward, which I really appreciated. I had several electrical issues that were resolved with precision, and I now feel confident that my home is safe and up to code. Levin Electric truly exceeded my expectations in every way, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled electrical services. Thank you, Levin Electric,"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.
