"We had a humidifier installed. They installed it quickly and professionally. The installer Jimmy was very helpful and even gave me a couple pointers in regards to installing a wifi thermostat. I've always had great experiences with Kath/Aquarius home services and will definitely use them again."

"Jason, the plumbing tech, arrived right on schedule with his only knowledge of the project a second-hand description of the work needed through a supervisor from Freier's Comfort by Design. He went right after the water line installation, since he had everything he needed on hand for that portion of the job and had that part of the installation, including the sewer venting and first level sewer line installation, finished before noon. He needed more parts to finish the sewer line connection to the main sewer pipe. We agreed to have him finish the project the next day, Tuesday.
After a delay caused by an emergency water line, Jason arrived with the necessary parts and finished the job quickly and professionally. He double-checked everything and left us with a huge improvement in our home's efficiency. I am a DIY sort of person and I don't usually hire people to do work I can do just as well. In Freier's Comfort by Design's case, there is no way I could do the work better for much less money. Both of the techs Freier's Comfort by Design have sent to our home have been quick, efficient, professional, and incredibly respectful of our home.

"The pros did a great job under less than ideal circumstances. We have loose insulation in our small attic that they had to work around. They handled everything without complaints. We love our new lights and our new range hood works perfectly. Our kitchen looks so much nicer and up-to-date. I wish I had known how messy it was going to be. I would have covered everything with plastic."

"I needed a EZ Generator switch installed at the furnace to connect a solar generator, it required a floating neutral, not a common request, they made it happen plus a safety upgrade. Now I can use my Jackery 4k system to keep the heat on and additional appliances in a power outage. This is way more convenient than hauling wood or messing with gas plus a energy tax credit is an incentive."

"Chris called me immediately, and his folks showed up when they said they would. Polite and hardworking, and asked questions about each part of the work. I was very happy. i called them a few days later for another small wiring job, and they came right out. A great company, I would recommend for any work."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.
