"The crew left without finishing the project which admittedly was a large scope of complicated mess left by the previous contractor who had drinking problems, but they knew that coming in. The main thing I asked the folks to do was to make sure heating works, that was priority #1, this is what they left in October when disappeared: - Heating main room, the first floor, only one radiator out of 3 working. - Heating second floor living room - none of the radiators were working, - They spend time running new wire to the first floor radiators because they thought the old wire was nicked, apparently nothing was nicked and the new wire wasn't needed at all as well as three 6" holes that they left in ceilings and walls , one of the original wires were just mis-labled that was the reason why heat didn't work - but instead of double checking they went for brute force - lets rewire the thing and didn't even finish that correctly. - Left one room completely without power to the outlets, to add more to that the switch in that same room was wired, but the wire wasn't screwed in at all, it was just taped to the terminal using electrical tape!!! It was shorting when I was moving it around! This is after the crew of 4 people spend 2 days checking all outlets and switches for code compliance. And then there is a ton of small stuff: - 3 way switch weren't wired correctly - closet light not wired Did I try contacting them? Oh yes, - Left 4 emails, 2 voicemails over the course of 6-7 weeks. What did I get back? One email that someone will contact me shortly... of course no-one did contact me shortly not after 1 day, 3 days, 3 weeks. Why am I leaving 2 starts and not one star ? Because the crew did do a lot and a lot of things they did were fine, like they installed CO2/Smokedetectros throughout the house, installed thermostats everywhere, so for small projects they may be great, but nothing that requires time or patience to figure out more complex electrical problems as I guess there is no money to be made in solving complex problems."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

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.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Yes, whole-house generators run constantly for extended periods. Whole-house generators can run for longer periods of time than portable generators, but be careful. First, they may need regular applications of engine oil (as frequently as daily), depending on the engine design. Second, running constantly for several days will increase the wear and tear on the generator and shorten its lifespan.
