"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 hired Todd's Electrical Services to install a new EV car charger in our garage. Todd is a top tier professional electrician who really knows what he's doing. He is very thorough and I especially appreciated how he took the time to explain things to me in layman's terms. He recommended the right EV charger system for my needs and he even helped me to get the app set up on my phone and walked me through the configuration of the device step by step. He quoted me his best price right from the start (unlike some of his competitors) and that is exactly what I paid. I would hire Todd's Electrical Services again in a heartbeat. HIGHLY RECOMMEND"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

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.

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.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.
