He found a small issue and gave me some suggestions for what to do, helped me understand wnat I needed to watch out for, and things to consider to help keep my generator running well over time. I was hestitant in changing service vendors - but am so glad I did. Hi-Tech has already proved to be more professional, experienced and customer focused. Thank you!"

"He arrived on time, even though it was pouring down rain. He got right to work installing the replacement remote control on the ceiling fan and showed us how the new controller worked. He tested the outdoor wall lights and determined that the motion sensor was not working on one of the lights. We decided to replace both lights, and he told us to give him a call when we buy the lights, and he would come and put them in for us."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

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.
