"I was introduced to Sacry through a third party. But I have now found an electrician for life! They showed up with little notice, analyzed the scope of what to be done, and made some recommendations. These recommendations were not so they could charge more, but rather so the job could be completed safely, and look professional. Sacry Electric went out of there way to make sure I was satisfied. I wish more companies had the same values as Sacry, putting the customers wants, needs, AND budget as their only priorities! Thanks again Sacry! I will be calling again soon!"

"It went great. The installation required some thought on how to make the Chewy model work with the style of latch on our patio door. Roy figured it out quickly and made a quick trip to Ace for the material he needed. The results were an airtight fit that looks great. Roy was great with our dogs which tend to get overexcited around visitors."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

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

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

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.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.
