"The installation was performed ahead of schedule and was completed in just a few hours. The installers were friendly and professional. We did have a bit of an issue with some damage to our lawn, however I contacted the company (Rich M) and they responded immediately, did a great job and did so no hassle whatsoever. I would recommend this company to anyone who is in need of a generator."

"Preferred Electric came right out to provide me with an estimate, which was lower than others and he seemed professional, so I hired him. He was able to perform the work within 2 weeks. He came and did the work himself. He installed the bath fan and kitchen curciuts as requestd. I then had him come back to install the smoke and CO2 Alarms in the house."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

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. 

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

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