"This work was beyond my expectations in every category. The owner, Brandon, is a really nice guy that gave us a fair and competitive quote and supervised all the work, which was done by a number of specially qualified teams: a concrete pad team, a custom built aluminum welded stand fabrication team, an electrical team, a gas team, and a generator operation and maintenance team. All of the teams were professional, courteous, and highly skilled. Come to find out we live in a historical tree protection zone, so, in addition to lining up gas and electrical permits, Brandon had to hire a licensed tree arborist to conduct a survey and obtain a tree permit, all of which Brandon did for no additional charge. If you ever want an automatic full home generator to keep the lights on during the next hurricane outage, these are definitely the guys to call."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

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

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.
