"Completely professional and exceptional customer service. The guys came out the same day we called and assessed the issue we had. The very next morning they arrived with all materials to do a complete system install. The guys didn't leave until the job was done. Cleaned up so well you wouldn't have known they were even here. AKM is top notch. You're not going to find a better company with amazing prices, work ethic, and customer service. We are super satisfied!"

"Hunter did a great job on my house. He had to put in a new breaker box and wiring throughout the house. He also installed a couple outdoor outlets I requested. I was very pleased with his work . He is very professional and easy to work with. Definitely recommend him for any of your electrical needs."

"After having my old unit go out I reached out to Mr. Mcaskill for his services. He and his crew were very professional and wasted not time installing a new unit and getting my house cooled down in a very short time frame. Very reliable service and reasonably priced compared to other quotes I got. Will be a lifetime customer and highly recommend to anyone looking for a/c or electrical services"

"Great. Mr. McDonald from Mac HVAC, promptly responded to my online request for an electrician. He gave me his name and stated the company he represents. He set up an appointment to come to my location based on my availability. He was on time, courteous, and knowledgeable about the services needed. He only provided necessary recommendations and did not try to sell services not needed. His estimate was fair and below previous estimates received. I plan to use his services for my project."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.
