"Initially, he responded within the hour when I posted my request then he came to the house. From there on, in terms of your appointments, there was a back and forth.

"was happy to hire Josent Electric Corp to do a full electricity service on my single-family home not long ago. My experience with them was nothing but great, from the first conversation to the final inspection. I'm excited to tell others who are thinking about using their services about my great experience with them. From the beginning, I thought Josent Electric Corp was very professional. The team showed up on time, was polite, and knew a lot. They took the time to learn about my needs and came up with answers that worked for my home and my budget. The way they handled the project showed how knowledgeable they were, showing that they had a deep understanding of electricity systems and current safety standards. The work that Josent Electric Corp did was truly excellent. They did an excellent job on every part of the job, from improving the wiring to putting in new lights and safety equipment. Their attention to detail was truly impressive; they made sure that all of the work was done correctly and quickly, leaving no room for mistake. Throughout the project, communication was smooth. At every step, the team kept me up to date on their work and explained difficult electrical ideas in a way that I could understand. They told me in great detail what they were doing, which made me trust their skills and the quality of the service they were giving. Being honest about costs, timelines, and possible problems was a nice change, and I liked it. Josent Electric Corp. put safety first in everything they did. They made sure that all installations and fixes were safe by following strict safety rules. Along with being very careful to keep my home clean, the team was also very respectful of the work area. They made sure to clean up every day, which didn't get in the way of my daily life too much. Working with Josent Electric Corp has been a great experience for me.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

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. 

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home
