"Sebastian was top rate. On time, diagnosed issue, checked outlets & breakers. He had the right parts in the truck and was able to install new breakers (replacing the prone to fail AFI/GFI combo). Refrigerator is safe and the dishwasher/disposal is working again. Very happy with the great service and the on-the-job explanations that he had to help me be an educated customer. I will definitely use Sebastian on my coming up home improvement projects."

Customers say: True professional

"Pearson is the bomb! I was looking for an electrician and called Pearson; Sean, the owner, picked up, gave me a reasonable quote based on the job I described (installing two ceiling fans), and even anticipated a potential issue (needed different electrical boxes from the existing ones). He was also kind enough to recommend a particular brand that he knew was high-quality and long-lasting. He followed up with emails to confirm the appointment and quote. On the day of appointment, he showed up on time and prepared. He worked efficiently and even cleaned up after! I wholeheartedly recommend Pearson. Altogether super professional and lovely."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

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.

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. 

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.
