"I hired Swenson Electric to run electricity from my house to a newly built detached garage! Nathan was a pleasure to work with! He explained what could be done and the bid was very reasonable! I would hire them again for any electrical work!"

"It went extremely well; better than my expectations since I have a tendency to be skeptical about making sizable investments regarding equipment with which I am not fully familiar. Eric actually showed me what was wrong. He tested my water with a "portable lab" system, but then we went down to the basement and he literally took my softer apart and showed me the condition of the media beads - which instead of being a golden color, were coated black. He also showed me that about two cubic feet of media was missing! He checked the setting of the unit, and showed what they were versus what they should have been. Finally he showed me how difficult it was to turn the control dial which a small motor must do to cycle the unit through the flushing cycle. By the end of his visit, I was convinced I had a real problem. Eric gave me all the options, including the features and benefits of each. Even though he said I could have the unit reconditioned and have a warranty (shorter than on a new unit) on its performance, I opted for a new unit with the longer warranty and electricity free operation."

"Called another company originally they asked how old the furnace is and I said about 5 yrs. old (it is 6 yrs old). They informed me that I should get a hold of the company that put it in because it should still be under warranty, which after I looked it was. So I called Service Today to set up an appt. to have them look at it. Andrew came out and with various questions asked I said that the thermostat we have is wifi and that is how we run it. Comcast upgraded the wifi in the neighborhood the day before and it was today I woke up and noticed that the thermostat wifi was not connected to the wifi anymore. He looked into it and noticed that when I put it on heat via by phone app or manually by the wall thermostat, it was turning on the A/C instead and visa versa. He came at a price to me of about $350 to run a diagnostic to find the issue. He did and then he comes back and tells me that the thermostat itself is burn out (I bought the thermostat from them when I had the new furnace installed 6 yrs. ago). Andrew goes to his van and of course comes with only 2 thermostats that he has on hand. One is not wifi and it was $350 or so and the other was $800 which was wifi programmable. He did say we could just go and get one from Best Buy or something but we would have to install it. We decided on the lower cost of the 2. As he was installing it I looked up the retail cost for the same exact one he was putting in (Honeywell T4Pro) and it was $75 at Best Buy. I mean really.........that much of a mark up in cost!!! It is like this company does not understand that we are in a pandemic and that money for so many people is really really tight!! To gouge customers like that. As I sat in my office crying about the cost I let myself get washed into, after a while I asked Andrew why such a big cost increase on the thermostat. He said he has nothing to do with the pricing of items, which I understood. Andrew was a nice guy and just doing his job. I put this gouging at the feet of the company because right now, people have to decide to either pay a heating/electric/etc. bill or pay a company a massive cost to have a thermostat put in. Andrew did take down some wires that were for a humidifier that was on the old furnace prior to installing the new one and also cleaned some dust and lint from the furnace. Will I call these guys again, only if I know that there is something wrong with the furnace that is under warranty still, other then that, I cannot afford them. They were better when they were Airtech. The C rating I gave it has more to do with how nice Andrew was then the company. For the company itself, I give it an F"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Homeowners in Aitkin are prioritizing energy-efficient upgrades like LED conversions and solar-ready wiring. Outdoor lighting for docks and patios, especially with GFCI protection, is popular for lakeside properties. Rustic fixtures with exposed beams and integrated dimmers complement cabin aesthetics, while smart home controls and backup generators are increasingly common. Many also choose panel upgrades to support modern appliances and future-proof their electrical systems.

Helpful?

In Aitkin, create a seasonal inspection plan by checking outdoor lighting and electrical panels each spring for winter wear, then inspecting air conditioning and pool wiring in summer. In fall, test heating system connections and review generator readiness. During winter, monitor for ice buildup on exterior outlets and ensure emergency lighting works. Document findings and schedule professional inspections for any concerns or recurring electrical issues.

Helpful?

In Aitkin, the timeline for electrical projects depends on the project’s size and complexity. Simple tasks like outlet installation or replacement generally take 1–2 hours per outlet, while ceiling fan or lighting fixture installation may require 2–4 hours. Larger projects, such as electrical panel upgrades or generator installation, often take 1–2 days. Whole-house rewiring can extend to a week, especially if rural access or weather delays scheduling.

Helpful?

New homeowners in Aitkin should start with a thorough electrical panel inspection and clear labeling for safety. Next, install GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces. Test and replace smoke and carbon monoxide detectors as needed, and confirm proper system grounding. Assess outdoor outlets for winter gear, plan for a backup generator, and evaluate your electrical system’s capacity to handle heating and major appliances year-round.

Helpful?

For minor electrical issues in Aitkin, you can safely reset tripped breakers, replace light bulbs, or test GFCI outlets—always ensuring the power is off first. If you notice persistent breaker trips, unusual odors, or signs of moisture or rodent damage, stop troubleshooting and contact a local electrician. Any project involving wiring, panel upgrades, or outdoor lighting should be left to professionals for safety.
