"I was extremely pleased since the other companies said several other things were wrong with the unit and what Scott said we found to be accurate. He had the unit running in less than 2 minutes and he explained how to get the unit running again if it happened again. I was extremely pleased with him and have referred him to several other friends. He actually approached the problem instead of a proposing big sales pitch."

Update:

Marc gave me a call shortly after this review was posted and apologized profusely.  He indicated that due to the urgency he sent a subcontractor that has turned out not to be a good guy.  Marc committed to refunding my payment.  Having an issue is one thing, taking responsibility and fixing it is everything.  Thanks Marc.

This is a mixed review.  I was selling a house and had to have a grommet (little plastic insulator) installed in my electrical panel.  Buyer was insistent that the grommet be popped in by a licensed electrician.  I had to get this done and quickly.   Day after the request MI responded drove thru heavy traffic, got there late but got there.  I had the panel open, handed the gent my hardware store grommet grommet, he popped it in and wrote me a note while I closed the panel, took my $125 and was gone. 

All of that was great except that MI did the work three years ago and failed to install the grommet that got me in this jam in the first place.  Hard to feel good about that.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.
