"After purchasing an eight camera exterior Lorex DVR system from Costco, I wanted professional installation with hard wiring on a two story home in Dayton. Austin did a great job scoping the work over the phone asking questions to determine my needs, explaining the installation and took time to answer questions. His explanation really sold me on his technical expertise and experience with what I needed. Quote was provided verbally and through email at a reasonable price. Great communication over the phone and email! The owners Mike and Austin were my onsite technicians showing up right on time as scheduled. They were friendly and approachable with needs and offered great ideas along the way. The camera angles were better than expected. They worked six hours non-stop with attention to every detail, crawling through attic insulation and on ladders inside and outside ensuring to protect walls and floors as they worked. They took time to vacuum their work area throughout the install. Worked great together as a team! Went above and beyond to ensure no camera cable wires are visible on the exterior or at the junction box inside connecting to the DVR with a clean, professional installation. They wanted to ensure I was happy with camera angles on the DVR before concluding. The final amount due was as quoted with no surprises or hidden costs/fees and quality workmanship. Very happy with what I paid for. Remember the saying, "you get what you pay for" if thinking about cheaping out with Geek Squad. I'd highly recommended Northern Nevada Low Voltage and would use them again for future needs."

"Jason with Battle Born Electric was amazing. He came out today after previously providing us with a quote and installed a new 240v EV charging plug in my garage. He was able to add a circuit to the power box attached to the house and run cable through the roof to my garage. The work only took him about 2.5 hours, alone. I was able to sit on the couch and relax knowing the job was in good hands."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.
