"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."

"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!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

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. 

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.
