"Highly recommend FUSE Electric! Nate showed up on time, was easy to communicate with, and did a great job. Everything was done professionally and the pricing was very fair. FUSE Electric may be a newer company, but Nate has been doing electrical work for decades and it definitely shows. It was a great experience all around and we’ll definitely call him again for any future electrical work."

"We needed a bath fan/light installed to replace a bath fan only, which also meant adding a switch; plus outside and inside outlets. Levi was great to work with! He was here when scheduled. His attention to detail and cleanup went above and beyond. Levi was respectful, friendly, and even wore foot covering inside our home. He would tell me when the tools would be loud. We would highly recommend Freedom Electric, and should we need electrical work completed… would definitely reach out to Levi! We wish him the very best in his business!!"

"They were super nice and great to work with. They came out for a different issue and I asked when we could schedule the installation of a new circuit in the garage. They said they had time right then and installed it while they were here. Flexible and dependable. I would and will hire again."

"I was not expecting phone calls at 10 p.m. You should have options on your form to set hours for phone calls. It took me off guard, so I went with the first phone call without getting a chance to get other bids. The electrician was very nice, had to do some detective work to try to figure out why a breaker kept blowing when we turned on the water feature. He replaced the breaker with a higher "commercial" breaker and also installed a new outlet for us. As it turns out, the breaker continued to "blow" and we ended up replacing the pump on the water feature. Things are working well now. Boxes/doors were left open after he left, so that would be why I did not rate at a 5."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

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.
