"Timely response. Laid out an installation plan that made sense, used some existing infrastructure that would prevent additional cost and overall cost estimate was well within reason. Work effort is ongoing due to adverse weather and trenching requirements. ( I have an electrical/electronics background and degree. I am to old to do the work myself)."

"Dan gave me a cost effective and much more functional installation for adding an Interlock switch to my power panel to connect my backup generator. Great communication, flexible work hours and completed the job quickly. I'm very happy and will use Dan again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

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.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
