"I want to take a minute and note that Carleton B. is incredible. Truly one of if not the best interactions I have had with a technician in any field and he is the sole reason we purchased a one year plan today. We are very pleased with his quality of work, communication, and timeliness. He has provided a great experience for us and for that we are very thankful."

"Having owned four different houses the past 16 years, this was hands down the best experience with a plumber... ever. We hired WyattWorks to install a laundry sink (the stainless over cabinet kind) which required drilling through the floor to tie-in with supply and drain pipes in our basement. Jeremy performed the work flawlessly and was a true pro: measure and recheck, plan and dry fit, and clean up the work area during and after. The whole process from start to finish was painless!"

"Mr Henry did an amazing job upgrading my electrical panel and installing additional electric outlets (I needed 3 lines put in under the house in the crawl space and my old panel was maxed out). To start with , his quote was very reasonable. Next, I was expecting to take weeks to schedule the job, to my delight he worked me into his schedule and finished the job within a few days of calling him!! Very professional. Great attention to detail. This guy knows his stuff! I will definitely hire him and his team again for future projects. (I hope to buy an EV someday and when I mentioned this, he knew exactly what would be needed to upgrade my garage. That’s the kind of knowledgeable electrician I want working for me.)"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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. 

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.
