"On the recommendation of the generator seller, I hired Mr. Ott to handle the electrical portion of a whole-house generator installation. It was a great experience every step of the way. The morning after the generator was delivered, Mr. Ott visited to view the installation site, take photos, and get the permit process moving. When the permit was available, he called to set up an installation appointment date, telling me to expect the power to go out that morning for the whole day. Sure enough, the power company arrived as scheduled to disable the power; Mr. Ott was here within a few minutes to install the new panel, aided by his son. Within a few hours, the panel was installed. He found that the original electrical installation was not performed according to today's best practices and made some improvements. When he was finished, the new panel was on the outside wall (he even lowered the meter to keep the new panel from being too high) and all cabling from the generator to the panel was buried. He contacted the power company to restore electricity; total outage time was slightly over 5 hours instead of a full day. After this experience, I would hire James Ott to handle any electrical maintenance problems or enhancements in my home. He and his son are capable and personable. What's not to like?"

"We could not be more happy with the service we received from Sam. He added electricity to our 12 x 24 foot shed that we had built in our back yard. He ran electrical lines from our breaker box to the back yard. He installed fluorescent lights and outlets inside our shed and an exterior light to meet code. From the time that I initially contacted him for a quote to the follow-up call we received after he was done, everything was done completely professional and to code. We had received a couple quotes from other electricians and none of them mentioned doing work to code. Sam ensured that we had a zoning permit and that was very reassuring because that meant we knew everything was going to be done by the book. The end project was way above my expectations and we got exactly everything that we wanted, plus the county passed our permit."

From the initial call to the completion of the job, their professionalism and expertise were evident. The technician was punctual, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the issue and the repair process clearly. The work was done efficiently, and my generator is now running perfectly.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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. 

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.
