"The electricians from Storm Electric did an excellent job installing a manual transfer switch for my portable generator. They were punctual, professional in their workmanship and very willing to take the time to answer any questions I had. I would recommend Storm to friends and would definitely use them again."

"

It went very well.  Due to some problems with kitchen appliances not working properly due to bad circuit breakers and knowing the electrical panel is about 30 years old, I thought it was time for the  panel to be replaced and possibly upgraded. 

Matt checked the panel, determined a complete panel replacement was not needed, only replacing all circuit breakers.  Some of the installed breakers were failing.

The work was done quickly and professionally.  Matt spent time as he worked telling me what he was doing and answered my many questions.

I especially appreciated his evaluation of our electrical power needs.  Based on our electric power usage now and in the future, he said we did not need to increase the amperage of the panel. 

Since the work was done, all kitchen appliances are now working properly.

"Great experience with Dr. Sparky Electrical Service. Angel was our electrician, and he was knowledgeable, professional, and thorough. He took the time to diagnose the issue and clearly explain what was causing the problem and what needed to be done to fix it. The service was reasonably priced, and I appreciated the communication throughout the process. I would definitely recommend Dr. Sparky and Angel for anyone needing electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator. 

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.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.
