"I had them replace a Circuit Breaker Box in a new home I just purchased. Additionally, they replaced 4 GFCI outlets (meaning they upgraded them to code). Anyway, they showed up at 9 o'clock sharp, worked quickly, quietly, and efficiently. Even with one of my dachshunds who has never quite learned the value of NOT barking at strangers, they acted as if the annoying dog wasn't there. Very polite and courteous. As they left once the job was complete (9 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon) they mentioned that if we noticed anything wasn't right for us to call them and they'd come back out and investigate. The next morning we noticed one of the GFCI outlets wasn't working correctly and there was one other small issue that needed attention. I texted them, told them that noon would work for me, and literally at exactly 12:00 they showed up to correct the minor issues. Great customer service and professional as well. Big job with a big price tag but in the end, I know that my new home has a Circuit Breaker Panel that will function as required when needed instead of burning my house down. Not sure if there really is a price you can put on that kind of peace of mind. These guys are good. If you have a job you need done, then make the appointment here and now. I did and will do so again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, whole-house generators run constantly for extended periods. Whole-house generators can run for longer periods of time than portable generators, but be careful. First, they may need regular applications of engine oil (as frequently as daily), depending on the engine design. Second, running constantly for several days will increase the wear and tear on the generator and shorten its lifespan.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

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.
