"BUYER BEWARE Old Generator was replaced as contracted. Need to understand that GRE only installs the generator box. I learned the hard way that homeowner needs to worry about gas hookup, the electrical switchover connections and if the house gets enough power from the generator when you loose electricity. Getting the unit to function right required multiple visits which should have been done/tested during install: 0. After GRE installed the generator and said good to go.... 1. Gas company came to connect the generator - how can you say job is done if gas not connected and tested? Gas company just connects pipe they don't test the generator. Generator did not work after gas company left. 2. Install right size regulator on the generator - which GRE did after calling to say the generator didn't work. I was told they did me a favor by replacing it and that gas company should have done that. 3. Install internal gas orifice connector for Propane versus natural gas (this connector comes with the generator) - which GRE did during regulator install. Again I was told they did me a favor putting the right orifice connector on. How do you not know to do this during install with propane tank cover sitting 30 feet away from generator 4. Tests to see if generator worked. After multiple storms house power did not switch over. Had electrician out multiple times to test switch over. Switchover worked during these visits. However, after a storm, house did not get enough power. 5. Throughout the last 3 years each time we called with a concern about house not getting power after a storm we were told we needed to buy an annual service contract. To which we said no thanks we would get the unit serviced as needed. Also reminded that as long as generator turned on they were done and it was my problem. 6. Final straw was we contacted GRE stating that Generator Service light was on. Told it would require a diagnostic charge of $250 and if service was needed it would be an additional $450. I have the text from the tech! Paid the $250 up front. He shows up, proceeds to tell me it needs service and that he wasn't prepared to do it. In addition, he rehashes the last 3 years blames our contractor and calls me a liar about our experiences with the generator. Then leaves saying get someone else to service the generator. I consider myself a very reasonable person. I just want the $13,000+ generator unit to function properly after we loose power. Early on I was surprised by the attitude that It was my problem after the box was bolted to the cement. I appreciated BRE fixing the regulator and installing the propane adapter after learning the parts were wrong. But the professionalism went down hill every time I said I didn't want a maintenance contract. I was willing to pay for the service today but was called arrogant and a liar by the tech! Buyer beware."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

The direction you want your ceiling fan to move in depends on the season you’re in. During summer, you want it to move counterclockwise to produce a cooling downdraft. During winter, you want it to move clockwise to circulate warm air throughout the room.

It is relatively rare for a ceiling fan to fall. A properly installed ceiling fan is attached firmly to a ceiling joist. Even if the fan is wobbling, it’s unlikely to fall down. However, you should promptly repair your fan when you notice wobbling or imbalance just to be safe.

There are many types of ceiling fans, from self-automated smart ceiling fans to outdoor ceiling fans that provide additional comfort to your patio. What you choose all comes down to function and personal taste.

Consider your ceiling height when selecting a ceiling fan. Rooms with ceilings under eight feet high will do well with low-profile ceiling fans, also known as flush-mount or hugger ceiling fans. If your home has cathedral ceilings or ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, you’ll need a large ceiling fan with a heavy-duty motor to get adequate air circulation.

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where there is already a light fixture. The electrical wiring needed to install a ceiling fan is similar to that of a light fixture. Before you make the swap, consider whether you need an extension rod and whether your ceiling is on an angle. You will need a fan-rated electrical box to ensure that your ceiling is sturdy enough to handle a spinning fan.

Generally, a ceiling fan should be mounted at least seven feet from the floor in the center of your room with a wall clearance of around 18 inches. If your ceiling is more than eight feet high, it’s recommended by experts that the ceiling fan be mounted around eight to nine feet from the ground. This helps ensure a better quality of circulated airflow.
