"I hired Shawn to add a 220v outlet and some additional 110v outlets in my garage. He was always very quick to respond when I had questions. He finished the job extremely quickly and did an amazing job! I cannot recommend him enough. I’m very pleased with his work and would hire him again in a heartbeat!"

"I can't thank Ryan enough for coming out to my in-laws home today. Finding a Service Electician in the Flathead Valley is almost impossible. We called at least 8 places and nobody could come out. Some said it would be a couple months. Ryan made time at the end of his workday to stop by on the way home to help us. He fixed our problem, and we were good to go in 30 minutes. I can't thank Ryan enough for going out of his way for us. The Valley needs more Service Electricians like this."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

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

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

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.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

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.
