"I'm very satisfied with his work. I had used him for 16 years and I had him install two different generators. I never had any problems at all and he is very responsive; that is why I have recommended him before."

"Daniel from Imperial Electric did an excellent job for us. We had a relatively small issue that he rectified for us very quickly and then did a very thorough inspection of our entire house at our request. He made a number of recommendations to upgrade our old electrical system that were practical, reasonable and in line with current codes."

"Ariel installed 50 amp inlet to my breaker box for portable generator. He completely cleaned up the breaker box. Separated rooms to different breakers so I can turn off rooms i don't use. He was extremely thorough in his work. Upon finishing installation, Ariel stayed on his own time and explained everything i needed to know about using generator and which breakers to use if i have a power outage. He was very knowledgeable and made sure i understood before he would leave. I highly recommend ACG based on my experience with his work ethic. Thank you Ariel!"

"Pete was very nice and he was very knowledgeable about his job. I would recommend Watts Electrical to my friends and family. Pete gave my son in law a great idea and explained how to do it, he said that it was a good idea to save money, they just bought the house and he was very very nice. He did not make it the day before but he called to reschedule and he showed up the next day and was very quick to find the problem and explained how to fix one. We would recommend him for all of your electrical needs."

"Fabian (the electrician) was an absolute professional. I let him know what I needed and he provided me with several options on how to get the task completed within code. He provided me with a specific timetable, which was great for me because it allowed me to work around my work schedule. Once the job was finished, it was as if he was never there. Everything was cleaned up and put back the way it was when he initially arrived. Highly, highly recommended!!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.
