"First of all, Manny was on time and as polite in person as over the phone. Manny worked very conscientiously from the start to the finish of both of my projects. He takes doing a good job seriously and is very efficient. I am fully comfortable with giving his name and number out to friends and family. I've already given it to my employer. In the future, I plan on calling them for all electrical needs. The price compared well with others in the area."

"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

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.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

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.

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.
