"After being ghosted by an electrician we had used before, friends recommended Kruger Electric. We were not disappointed. Kruger was responsive, from the moment we made our appointment through their confirmation and then letting us know Kevin was on his way, we never had to wonder whether someone was going to show up. Kevin assessed the services we requested, did a quick "examination" of the house, and then provided three options from which to choose. He was upfront about costs -- no hidden fees or surprises. Kevin did excellent work, quickly and thoroughly, and went above and beyond (with little things like swapping out a light bulb in the garage so we can actually see in there now). We are just beyond satisfied with the whole experience and would wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Kruger (and Kevin) to anyone."

"They did an excellent job installing a new 240V outlet in my garage! We were able to easily schedule an appointment. They arrived to my house on time. As they were working they were extremely friendly and communicated proficiently. Once the project was finished everything looked great and the outlet works just fine. I would highly recommend for anyone needing a local electrician."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

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.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.
