"Ken was hired to put a sub-panel in the garage, but he notice that rain was getting in the main panel. I hired him to replace the service coming down the side of the house, through the meter box and then the main panel and sub-panel. He did a great job. He was clean and neat and he worked around my work-from-home needs to electricity. He did the service and main panel on a Saturday and I had minimal power disruption. He is friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely hire him again."

"R C Heating & Air Conditioning Servicemen arrived on time on a 90 plus degree
day, removed the old system and installed the new system. They were so
quiet and cleaned up so thoroughly that I wouldn't have realized they
were here without seeing the new air conditioning system and reaping the
cool benefit. I would highly recommend R C Heating & Air Conditioning,
especially the owner Rich Crivaro, who was on site to make sure the job
went smoothly.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

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. 

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.
