"I volunteered to remodel a newly purchased house built in 1952 (with three subsequent additions over time) for my elderly sister who was moving to Albuquerque. The wiring situation in the house was very complicated - there were three separate electrical boxes being used, with one the original from 1952. I had an incredibly difficult time finding electricians willing to take on the task of combining these boxes and adding new wiring. Most electrical companies I called had no interest in this job and the few times I convinced an electrical company to come out, evaluate the situation, and provide an estimate - I never received a call back. I had a very limited time in which to have the house finished and I lost a lot of sleep agonizing over who might come and help me out. Then True Light Electric was recommended to me by the HVAC company I was using ... and True Light was indeed the brightest light in this otherwise difficult remodel I was attempting. They came over immediately after my call, walked through and evaluated all that needed to be done and, decided they would be willing to accept the challenge -- and challenge it was. They provided an extremely reasonable estimate that I gladly accepted. Their knowledgeable, personable, and hard working technicians worked to fit my compressed schedule and satisfy all the electrical needs of the remodel. Their technicians were always punctual, friendly, and easy to talk with. They readily explained what they were doing, how they were doing it, and discussed with me the best way to resolve the unforeseen issues they found. Along with consolidation of the existing wiring and adding fans and new outlets, there was the complete wiring of a new kitchen. Now, after the completion of their work, I feel confident that the electrical system in the house is safe and reliable for my sister. I highly recommend this company for any type of electrical work and would not hesitate to use them again in the future."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

As long as your generator is used as recommended by the manufacturer, it’s safe to use for auxiliary power. Make sure that fuel powered generators are used outdoors and that the fumes dissipate away from your home. A professional generator installer will ensure your generator’s placement and set-up meets safety standards when installing or repairing your back-up power source.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.
