"We had an absolutely amazing experience with this father-and-son team! They own and operate their electrical company full time and also do furniture assembly, and we could not have been happier with the job they did for us. They arrived at 9:30 in the morning and stayed until around 6:30 that evening, making sure every single piece of furniture was completely assembled before they left. Everything came out beautifully, and they were incredibly hardworking, efficient, careful, and thorough. On top of that, they were both so friendly, personable, and pleasant to have around all day. Their pricing was also fantastic — by far the best of all the quotes we received. We were so impressed with their work and felt they deserved even more than what they had quoted us, so we were happy to tip them extra. We would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, hardworking people who genuinely care about doing a great job. We will be keeping their number for any future projects!"

"Arete’s team was incredibly professional and efficient. They completed my HVAC job in a timely manner and beat competitor’s pricing. Their team was very respectful of my home and even wiped the floor after each day’s work. Every member of the team was kind and respectful. Will certainly work with them again in the future for any of my HVAC/electrical needs."

"Excellent company, Isaac is probably qualified to wire up a nuclear power plant. He predicted perfectly what was required during the site survey, came prepared, and executed incredibly high quality work for my Tesla charger install. Also incredibly knowledgeable and will provide advice regarding your home's electric system. The high level of detail persisted even with the peripheral tasks involved in the work, such as cleanup and left no mess. I'd work with them again."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

You can run a small or basic standard-size refrigerator on a 15-amp circuit. But you should plug a modern, standard-size refrigerator into a 20-amp dedicated circuit. The refrigerator needs to be on a dedicated circuit, meaning it is the only appliance and outlet on that circuit breaker. This method prevents tripping the breaker and reduces the chance of an electrical fire. 

Inverter generators are designed to turn on the engine when your appliances demand more energy. This is in contrast to running at full capacity as soon as they’re turned on, like a standard portable generator does. So long as the wattage rating is high enough, an inverter can power a refrigerator just as well as a traditional generator.

In the United States, home outlets support a standard 15 amps, but you can upgrade per outlet if necessary. Most single-family residential homes have a maximum overall amp rating, usually 100 to 200 amps. Very old houses may have less than 100 amps, but that’s rare. Large homes often come with amp services above 200 amps to support modern lifestyles.

Window ACs use 500 to 1,400 watts per hour of electricity, while mini-splits use 500 to 700 watts per hour. However, if you need to cool multiple zones in your house, your mini-split can use as much as 2,000 watts per hour. How often you run your system will impact how much electricity you use (and how much you pay per month).

The size of your home will help determine the size of your electrical panel. Usually, the decision comes down to a 100-amp electrical panel versus a 200-amp panel. Smaller homes, especially those without an HVAC system, may be able to get by with a 100-amp panel. 

If you have a larger home or need to power AC, a 200-amp panel should be the best fit. It’s unlikely that you’ll need a larger panel than that unless you have a larger home or unique electrical needs, but an electrician can help you make the final call.
