"Rodney was great. He came out the same day as our hot tub was delivered even though we called him that morning. He installed a new external service panel and connected and fully tested the hot tub power and settings. Will be using his company again very shortly for other projects. On time, professional and charged way less than other quotes we'd received."

"AGI was great. They respected my home and kept me informed as the process went forward. They did exactly what they said they would and did it when they said they would. Their work was so neat and they were so professional. I couldn't have asked for a better experience on their end. I would recommend them without reservation to my best friends. I feel so much safer with the Generac generator. I have great confidence in Advanced Generator Install's work and hope to have them back in a couple of months to work on some electric issues."

"We called Mr. Miller to have an outlet put in and some wiring rerun as we are having a sliding glass door installed. Mr. Miller showed up in great time, was respectful and was efficient with his work. He left my husband and I feeling confident with our new outlet and the work he provided. We are glad he is local and we will contact MMI Electric for any future electrical needs we have. Thank you so much for the good work!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

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. 

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.
