"Tui and his sons provided outstanding service to us, helping resolve an electrical problem we had experienced for years. Our home had too many appliances running on one circuit, which caused the breakers to trip, especially when using the air conditioners. Tui and his sons were able to run a new line to help distribute the electrical load, allowing us to run our AC units without constantly tripping the breakers. Their quick service, knowledge, kindness, and genuine care brought much-needed relief to us, especially in the heat. Beyond solving the electrical issue, they provided peace of mind and showed what it means to serve others with aloha. We are truly grateful for the work Tui and his sons did for our family. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, dependable, and caring electrical service. Mahalo nui loa, Tui to you and your sons!"

"The job is half complete, they are waiting for HEC to confirm when electric can be turned off to finish the job of installing a meter on the outside of the house. So far, their service and desire to help ground the electrical outlets has been very good."

Generator Install FAQs, 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.

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.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.
