"Highly recommend!! In 16 years, we have never had a need for a generator. We were told we were on the hospital grid. Well, apparently, those grids change. Over the last year, we have had too many electrical problems with long outages leading us to come to the decision that it would be prudent for us to buy a generator. After doing the research and seeing all the details involved with ordering, preparation, installation, etc, we decided there are too many important details and decided to look for someone to do everything for us. It's incredibly important to know that we came to this decision in December, 2020 (height of generator demand), during a pandemic and during a time of an extreme nationwide generator shortage. While researching, we saw so many people waiting months for a generator from other companies, trying to do everything themselves, waiting for the transfer switch, then an electrician and so on. We figured we would be lucky to have it for next winter. We met with Matt Sanford, he went over everything in detail, looked at the potential sites for the generator and the propane tanks, measured, etc. He could have sold us a bigger generator, but he thought it would be a waste for us to spend extra money on a specific generator I "assumed" we needed. Matt determined the size needed, made recommendations and we, happily, gave him a down payment check. He said 4-6 weeks. I still had my doubts, but here I am writing a review 4 weeks later, because the installation is complete. It is a two-day process. The workers who installed it showed up shortly before the expected time with masks on, were clear and concise, informative, professional and were very courteous of their surroundings including inside the house. In all honesty, I was floored with their demeanor. They completely took me by surprise and it was well above my expectations. When they called to book the installation, I was told the electricity "could be" out for several hours. We planned for several hours. When they arrived, they said it would be an hour or two. It was out for 15 minutes. They do as much as they can in advance so the power is out for as little time as possible, but there can be issues. DO NOT plan that your power would be out for that short period of time. Plan for the worst and hope for the best. The next person, who installs the gas portion, arrived bright and early the next day. He was just as nice, informative and professional as the workers the day before. The communication from the company is stellar. The people they have working for them are fantastic. I cannot say enough good about our entire experience. You WILL NOT be disappointed. By the way, here's something I didn't even know existed until Matt told me about it. Ask about the house surge protector. Even my insurance company had never heard of it. I wish I had known about it when it came out. Also, based on the work involved with the generator, it is comforting to know we are paying them for maintenance, monitoring, etc. In my opinion, this is a complicated machine to install and maintain. They see everything our generator is doing and if something is not right, they'll send someone out before we even know something is "not right". You don't want to be caught in a major outage and have a failing system. You go through the big expense of buying it and installing it, make sure it's taken care of on a regular basis by a professional just like your car, home heating system, etc. I highly recommend this company."

"I have to say that David Krafton is an excellent electrician. I. Called him about a. light. Over. My sink that I could not fix by replacing the bulbs. He came out and told. Me the light was not working, as it was shorted out. He then went and bought me a new light and installed it. It works get and is so much brighter the the previous one. Thank you David I will be calling you again to do other work for me. Loraine in Bedford N.H."

"EXCELLENT Wilson Bros. recently installed a second zone A/C unit in our house. In a nutshell, from initial call and sales/estimator Paul coming out to final clean up I've never been more pleased with a contractor and work accomplished. Everyone showed up on time as scheduled, Al & Cliff were outstanding at their installation work, and keeping me updated and involved on schedule and various options and layout necessities. I'm very particular, need to know what and why things are happening, and everyone was great to work with. Can't recommend them highly enough."
Three of the five heads are marked by the numbers in the blue circle. On the inside of the house is where you will find the mounted units. The slim ducts run alongside the white arrows and will eventually be covered to match the exterior of the house.
The slim ducts in the basement ceiling that connect from the branch box all the way to the 5 different heating and cooling units. These will be covered by the ceiling tiles once the job is finished.

"Jared was very responsive to my inquiry, coordinated with the electric company and town quickly, did a nice job on the installations and at a competitive and fair price. I also liked his professional estimates, invoicing, follow up, and online payment options. The insurance company had given us a very short time to change all 3 electric panels, and by the time we hired Jared that window had diminished considerably. But he got it all done and they still aren t here!"

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.
