"We had Tim install a hookup for an external generator into our home electrical system. He was superbly professional in his inspection, quote, and execution processes. It was a pleasure working with this fine young man and watching him in action. He has a passion for the work, and is doing a great job growing his business. He arrived each time as promised, and when there was a delay, I knew about it ahead of time. Quality of the work was first class. Follow through was admirable. Highly recommended."

"Juan was on time and very professional. Did an excellent job adding a sub panel for a generator and even correct a code violation that was found in the main box when he opened it up. The time estimate and price quot where both right on the money. He also did a great clean up job when the work was finished. Would recommend him to anyone needing some electrical work."

"It was pretty rocky. At first. Several appoints made by Tri-State no one ever showed up.Crew showed up to install the Generator before the site survey and did not have necessary equipment or cooperation of Electric or gas company nor call before you dig had been notified. I called Tri-State to warn them the call before dig had never been preformed. They said they'd take care of it, did not happen until right before installation crew came back the second time. The first time they were here they could not have installed the generator even had they had all the parts because none of the utilities had been marked. Finally after about three months the Generac was installed and working. I had several questions that I could never get answered by calling Tri-State. One of the installation team had to come back a couple of weeks later to replace a damaged part and he answered all my questions. The guys who installed the Generac were great, the problem is your guys operation center and call center as far as I can see do not communicate very well. Anyway the generator has worked fine in several power outages this spring. I am happy right now but I live in dread something goes wrong and I have to call Tri-State for help."

Small jobs welcome

"So far Randy and Paige have been diligently working to get our garage door working correctly. They were willing to work in the freezing cold. They came right away after we discussed the problem. They seem to know what they are doing and expect to finish shortly. They finished the job today 2-22-2022.. They did an absolutely great job. Randy Holland and Paige Davies work well and efficiently together. The cost was reasonable. They were on time and there was no question as to when they would be on the job. They were knowledgeable and pleasant. They seem to have a broad variety of skills. We would not hesitate to hire them for future jobs."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

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. 

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.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

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.
