"My job required rewiring in old plaster walls and crawling around in an attic removing and replacing all the old wiring while adding outlets and a few fixtures. Iâ m super happy with the results, my suspect wiring is gone and I have new working outlets and fixtures where I wanted them. I know who to call when I make up my mind about some renovation ideas."

"Bronson from Bismarck Heating & Air Conditioning came to my home yesterday to make sure our Air Conditioner is ready for the summer. He did such a great job, was efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant. And, what impressed me the most was that I had several questions regarding our heating and air conditioning system both of which were replaced late last year by Bismarck Heating and Air. He took the time to explain every question I had and was very patient in doing so. I appreciated his expertise and teaching skills very much. He is a very impressive employee!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

When properly maintained, natural gas generators can last a long time, as much as 20 to 40 years. They have relatively few needs compared to generators with other fuel types. However, the generator’s lifespan ultimately depends on how often the generator is used and for how long it’s left running.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Generator size requirements vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+

Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
