"I recently had my generator repaired and serviced, and I was very impressed with the quality of work. Johnny was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to make sure everything was running properly before he left. My generator is now running great, and I appreciate the honest, reliable service. I highly recommend him for generator repair and maintenance needs."

"Creekside Power is outstanding for electrical work!! The attention to detail put into their work when installing my Generac home standby generator was first class. I am pretty OCD about the way things are done, and Shawn s work was definitely up to my standards. I would highly recommend Creekside Power their price was my second lowest out of 14 estimates... Shawn was only $125 higher than my lowest estimate... and that person was not trained & certified to install Generac products, nor was he a Generac dealer like Shawn... that made my decision very easy. Everything was completed in a neat and orderly fashion. Shawn was very patient throughout, taking the time to answer my frequent questions. He used a level throughout the install and took his time as a result, everything lines up and matches up with my existing breaker box, etc. Shawn was very careful, diligent, and a bit OCD about how straight everything was during our install, which I thought was great!! Shawn takes pride in his work and it shows! Call Shawn for a free estimate... Shawn knows his stuff and you will like him. He did a great job for us on two jobs - a backup/standby generator install and a replacement of my meter channel!! He also ran a new electrical line to an out-building at my mom's house. I have already recommended Shawn to anyone I know who mentions wanting to get a generator installed."

"Pleasure to work with on recessed lighting install. Ken was responsive to questions and time changes via email/phone. We removed the old lighting, did some of the recessed lighting layout, and obtained the materials (he reviewed to make sure it was OK). His installation and electrical work was handled professionally and on schedule. Any adjustments were reviewed with me as a courtesy. We thought the price was fair for the work done. Nice job."

"Owner Chris W. came out for the free quote; he listened carefully to our needs to determine costs. James and Chris (not the owner) were prompt, professional, and kept us advised throughout the install process of our two bathroom fans. They also did some wiring upgrades downstairs in quick fashion. We would highly recommend Empire and anticipate using them again. Very good value for the cost."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
