"When I was looking for an electrician power up, turned out to be the easiest and quickest way to find an electrician that I needed. They worked with me with a schedule that allowed me to continue daily activities and events I was still able to get what I needed done in a week’s time. I am extremely pleased with the outcome. I have a new outlet in my master bath and I have new smoke detectors along with carbon monoxide. I would certainly refer anyone to power up."

"Diana called me early on the morning of installation and told me Rod would be there at 2:00 pm. Rod showed up on time and did an excellent job of replacing our bathroom exhaust fan. He was courteous and friendly and explained our options. Overall, it was one of the best experiences we have had with home repair."

"I had hired another electrician that missed two appointments. Empire was at my house when they said they would be there. They were very friendly and courteous. They completed the job exactly as I wanted, finished sooner than expected and under previous bids that I had received. I now have an electrical company that I will call for all my electrical needs. I have already recommended them to my friends. Thanks Empire."

"I needed security cameras installed, and I am so glad I ran across Mitchell through Angi. I can’t say enough good things about this guy. He was on time and communicated well in person and through text. He was fast, effective, efficient, thorough, honest, hardworking, and just an overall decent guy. Once again, my wife and I are so glad that we ran across Mitchell at Freedom Electric and Construction, and we are looking forward to working with him on future projects!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

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.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

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.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.
