"It is companies like this one which are destroying America. All I asked this company to do was install an attic fan in the gables at one end of my attic. And they charged me for 3 hours and the time it took them to drive from their office to my house. The job did NOT require them to pull electric from the breaker box, power already existed in the attic and was hooked into an off/on switch. All this 2 man crew had to do was, build a wood frame to put the fan in, attach the frame to the gable and then run 25 feet of wire from the switch to the fan. There was no cutting into the house needed, there was already venting. I even described to the owner of the company what needed to be done and he estimated 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours. They elected not to come out and visually inspect the job. The charged me $181 for the fan they installed. I asked to see the invoice for it and none was provided they stated they got it a big box store. I tried to find one on line similar to what I got and it was priced at $134. Nice mark up wouldn't you say. Bottom if you want people who aren't going to stick to their estimate, not bother to inspect what they are going to do to ensure their estimate is accurate, charge you for the time it takes them to drink their coffee on the way to the work site and rip you off then this is your company. They originally charged me $669 for the job after I complained they reduced it to $579 dollars. I described to what was required of the company you tell me if that was worth what they charged."

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:
Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000
Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300
Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000
When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.
When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:
Refrigerator: 600 watts
Large dehumidifier: 700 watts
Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts
Water heater: 3,000 watts
Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running.
Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:
Portable generator:
2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers.
4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.
8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.
Partial to whole-house generator:
20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:
Experience frequent or prolonged power outages
Work from home
Store a lot of cold food
Have a sump pump
Have a pump for well water
Use electronic medical devices
Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
