"Responsive, fair pricing. Quality of installation could have been done a little better as rods were slightly crooked and they did not pull the wiring tout on top of house so not totally parallel to roof line."

"Apex installed a Whole Farm generator for my horse farm. They were very professional when they came to determine the size generator I needed and the quote was quite reasonable. The installation and hook up was completed in a timely manner. I now have peace of mind knowing that in the event of a power outage I can still provide excellent care to my horses. I will certainly be contacting Apex for my future electrical projects."

"These installers will do a great job with the actually installation. In my case, I wanted to install my antenna's in the attic. After the installation, vhs (particularly PBS) signal did not come in. I followed up to see if an adjustment could be made to try to get pbs. The correspondence got into a couple of minor issues that we disagreed about, but the main point was that i couldn't get pbs. They offered to come install the antenna outside, which i turned down. I called PBS and gave them the antenna model installed. They told me that the problem was likely that the model was designed for UHF. I googled Antenna's Direct and talked to their tech support. They confirmed that the antenna I had was likely the issue with VHF but would be very good for UHF. They suggest that I add a VHF only antenna and a UHF/VHF combiner. They looked up my address and told me exactly where to place the VHF antenna. It took me an hour or so to set up the VHF antenna, run the cable and hook up the combiner. They also directed me to Amazon where I could buy the antenna and combiner I needed. IT WORKED GREAT! All the UHF & VHF channels I need and more. Bottom line is that this company is great on installation. The installer did a very good job and they adjusted my bill for a travel time question. However, they didn't know about the UHF/VHF issue that Antenna's Direct knew about immediately. I would recommend talking to tech support at Antenna's Direct before any installation to ensure the antennas are correct and follow up with Antenna's Direct before deciding on any adjustments or moving the antennas from your preferred location."

"Based on our past experience with AOM (interior painting), we used them to powerwash our home. They had all the appropriate equipment and did an excellent job. Our 20 year old vinyl siding looks totally refreshed. David is easy to work with and goes the extra mile. We will continue to AOM for future projects.

FAQs for generator install projects in Findlay, IL

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
