"FM Generator installed the whole house unit for much less than I thought it would be. They have been servicing it ever since. I am very pleased with the responsiveness of FM Genderator and the quality of their service. I live right on the ocean and the original generator died just before the warranty period. This is primarily due to the corrosive nature of the salt air. They reinstalled a new one quickly. I am very happy with their services, and have recommended them to others in my neighborhood."

"Justin contacted us right away and came out the next day. Unfortunately, one of the sailing fans we bought wouldn't work well on our ceiling, but he was doing all he could to make it work. In the end he came back a second day to make one of our original ceiling. Fans work with a light I got no extra cost. He was very polite and cleaned up, Even though he made little to no mess."

"I had no heat in the house. After plumber told me there’s electrical problem, I called a few electricians only to be told they could come ten days or two weeks out. Temps are dropping to low 40s and 30s. Desperately I gave Biondich Electric a call and spoke to Mat. As soon as he heard no heat, he rescheduled his other appointments and came to help me in the same afternoon. He was very thorough and thoughtful, even took extra time to explain everything to a novice like me. He got the heat back on in a few hours after rerouting wires and Installing things for extra safety. He even came by once again the next morning to help me diagnose one other plumbing issue. Mat is very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. His rate is reasonable. I will definitely call him when I have electrical problems in the future and will recommend him to my friends on the cape. Thank you, Mat!"

"If I could give this company an A+++ I would. From the beginning, the entire job was explained over the phone, very detailed and 100% transparent. No surprises. The work was scheduled immediately an ended up being completed 3 weeks ahead of schedule- which is key when you're entering winter and you need a generator for blackouts in stormy weather. The installers showed up on time on every single occasion. They were quick, reliable, NICE, clean, and steadfast. The management kept me informed by telephone each time they were coming by my property and explained exactly what they were completing that day. The entire job was completed in roughly 8 days including permits. I have also contacted Cape Cod Independent Power post install and they respond 100% of the time in an extremely quick manor. I've been dealing with contractors for over 20 years and this team is one of the best I have ever dealt with. A true pleasure to work with."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.
