"They replaced a bathroom light with a fan/light combination and added a separate switch for the fan. When they were finished they told us the pile of attic insulation on the floor had been sucked from the attic falling to the floor when the front door was opened and told us we could pick it up and put it back in the attic, or they would pick it up and take with them. They also cut the sheet rock completely open between the existing outlet box and the one they installed leaving the wall cavity open with a 1 inch space between the outlet covers open to the wall cavity. They were both laughing while they did it and laughed when they told us **I do not know how you are going to fix this** A couple of clowns."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

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.
