"William was absolutely fantastic! He responded almost immediately when I requested an estimate for his services, and he arrived the following morning to discuss my project and provide an estimate. In addition to providing a fair and reasonable estimate, he also said he was available to begin work as soon as I would like him to do so. It was a time-sensitive job, and he got started right away. He completed the installation of a new breaker and wiring for an exterior outlet box on our back deck in less than a few hours! Everything looks great, and I will definitely be contacting Triple City Electric again for any electrical services going forward."

"I recommend Dustin 100%. I would definitely use him again. What a great guy. He tried to help me over the phone in case it was something easy like a tripped breaker, so I wouldn't have to pay for a service call. It wasn't easy, he came out, explained what was happening and he went to work and figured it out. He's extremely knowledgeable and has a great work ethic that you don't see these days. Responds right away and shows up when he says he's going to. I seriously can't recommend him enough. His rates are better than any I've seen, I'm so glad I called him!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

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.
