"The job got done and it gone done right! We contracted Elextron Electric to install a 61” chandelier in our dining room. They sent two technicians, Abi and Eliecer. They were early, courteous, experienced, knowledgeable and very professional. They worked well together and neatly got the job done. I will definitely call Elektron back."

"They diagnosed the problem we had with our generator just by the description given to them on the phone. We hire them on a regular basis now to do the generator maintenance. They have us on a yearly schedule and up to now we are satisfied with their work and believe me we have had other companies before and you cannot compare, very professional."

"I highly recommend Mr. Pescoran’s handyman services! He installed a new garage door motor for me and mounted 5 TVs throughout my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He was professional, reliable, efficient, and paid close attention to every detail. Everything was installed securely, neatly, and exactly the way I wanted it. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust to do multiple jobs and do them well, but he exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, dependable, and takes pride in their work, I would definitely recommend hiring him. I will absolutely be calling him again for future projects!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit
