"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."

"Installed lights and outlets in a timely and efficient manner. Cleaned up and left work area neat and orderly fashion. However after he left I noticed one circuit was not working. I called the next day and they sent out another electrician who worked diligently to find the problem. Once found it took only a little while to repair."

I have worked as a home service electrician for over 5 years, with extensive knowledge in code requirements and regulations. I have completed projects from complete rewires, panel and service replacement down to troubleshooting outlets not working. There is no project to big or little I cannot handle for you while still meeting 2023 code requirements. Indiana follows 2007 code, but I hold myself to a higher standard keeping everything I do long lasting and the safest way possible.

"Had Stagecoach RV in Peru work on RV generator, called me said circuit board caught fire and found one on an online bidding store for 909$ and some change took home to put in the pole barn. Spring comes to get RV out change all fluids fire generator up to cool down RV with ac, doesn't work. Call stagecoach RV and tells me guy who did generator quit to get a job with insurance, so I'm screwed out of 900 and my one year warranty? He said I can give you his number. (screwed) checked Angie s List and Huston Electric came up? Knew they did commercial and residential wiring did not know they worked on Rv generators, so I left to search, 10 minutes later they call me saying yes we see you inquired about work need on Rv generator. I told him all I knew and we were leaving for outer banks on Friday (this is Monday on phone) guy says bring it by tomorrow. I said I'm on a time crunch to load for a trip can I bring it this evening, he asked a guy there how late in the shop he said he would wait. I dropped off Monday evening, got call 10:15 am Tuesday we got you all fixed up someone been in circuit board area and had loose pin connector and loose connection at 30 amp breaker and straightened up wiring on board it was a mess, also looks like someone put in new voltage regulator and never adjusted it was only getting 107volts, adjusted it and all is good. I went to pick up and he said I had to look up the schematic for wiring and it brought up the whole manual so I printed it off for you and put it in a plastic binder. $285.00 out the door worked great on the trip no issues and if I need generator service again it will be Huston Electric in Lafayette"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

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

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.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.
