"CSA installed a custom home theater, a ELK security & automation system, a driveway gate system with intercom, Russound whole house audio/intercom system in 12 different rooms, Lutron Radio RA lighting control system and 12 cameras on exterior of our house. I m extremely impressed with CSA from our first walk through, the design build they put together, the options they proposed to my wife and myself and how Chad kept it as simple as possible when presenting what our system was capable of doing. It s overwhelming but he did a fantastic job to try and keep it in Lameon terms. From the pre-wire to day of final completion CSA went above and beyond our expectations. You can truly tell they love what they do and have a passion for it. When our house was completely finished CSA was the last contractor to finish do to everything in our house is automated and controlled through our wall touchscreens, laptops and mobile devices. We can open our entry or exit driveway gates from our house phone, touchscreens or any mobile device that CSA installed a custom built app on. While we re home or anywhere in the world as long as we have 4g or WiFi. All of our exterior lights are set up to be at our desired level from dusk to dawn and when anyone walks past any camera at night the light level of the closet light brightens for a few minutes and after camera no longer detects motion level goes back down. It s just amazing what this system can do. We have our main front door locks, side entry garage door lock and all 4 of our garage doors all controlled by this system and if a door is opened and we re not within 1000 yards of our home we re notified. We couldn t be more pleased with the job CSA did and most of all the time they took to train us on how to use and control every aspect of our whole smart home. Thank you again CSA. We highly recommend anyone in the need of security, audio & video and home automation needs to contact CSA. We had 3 other A/v automation contractors do drawings and pricing proposals and what stood out the most with CSA is the options we were given, the time they spent with us on making sure we were aware of what they were capable of doing and providing us with 3 separate pricing options from platinum to silver. They were the only contractor that did that. This was our final home we will build and CSA knew how special this dream home meant to us so thank you again CSA for going above and beyond from start to finish."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.
