"Julian and his assistant replaced our old breaker panel, and also installed a portable generator portal along with an interlock kit, all for a very reasonable price. The work was careful and professional. Very satisfied."

"Roy is really a prof. He installed two overhead fans and a hanging lamp. The fans had a complicated control system but he was able to get them to work flawlessly. Bonus: he is really a nice person and he cleaned up too! I would recommend his work to anyone."

"Miguel was the first one to contact me from provided Angi list. Issac the electrician he sent was professional and friendly. The only issue with my project was scheduling. It started almost 2 hours later than scheduled, and I couldn't get any update during that window."

"Justin, our service person, installed a transfer switch in our garage to run a portable generator in case of a power outage. His work was very professional and he took the time to explain what he was doing and how things worked. After installing the switch, he checked all the circuits, activated the things we wanted to run then hooked up the generator and made sure everything worked, which it did, before he left. Would use again if any need occures."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.
