"Forge Mountain Electric recently installed our whole-house backup generator. This family owned and operated business did an excellent job. It was done right the first time and their initial cost estimate was accurate. They are dependable, punctual and detail oriented. We also had F.M.E. do some needed general electrician task like new light switches and some safety improvements for outdated wiring. Excellent quality workmanship at a fair price. We will certainly call on this company for all our future electrician needs."

"I have used Eads Electric now for 5 jobs and am planning on using them again for my master bathroom remodel again next year. They worked with us on our basement remodel post Helene and were upfront about the cost and even found us ways to shave down the costs. They did our generator outlet, our kitchen remodel, the bathroom exhaust/light, a ceiling fan in the spare bedroom and several light switches and outlets in the bedroom. Their prices were very reasonable and both men were respectful of our home. They even came after work so we didn't have to take the day off of work. Best of all they showed up when they said they would, keep cost within quoted prices and didn't mind when our three cats wanted to help with the work."

"I had some good experiences with Mike’s Heating. The best was the installers were very nice and friendly. They seemed to do good work. I really don’t have any bad issues. I think they could have done a little better with follow up in terms of checking how things were going, suggesting annual service and stuff like that. I haven’t really heard much from them since. I remember it wasn’t cheap, but it was reasonable, no worse than anyone else."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.
