"The person I spoke with on the phone was very professional. They could fit me into the schedule within two days of my phone call. However, the price quoted to install my ceiling fan was about $50-$75 higher than two other electric companies that I contacted."

"We thought our problem was a dead outlet, however Lee and Dave determined it was a GFI outlet that somehow got tripped. Lee and Dave checked all the GFI outlets and found the one that was the cause of our problem. They easily could have lied to us and said to change all the GFI outlets but they didn't. This exhibit of honesty and true professional is not lost on us. We will definitely recommend them and use them in the future."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

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

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.
