"Jared Vassallo came in my home to install an exhaust fan in one of the bathrooms. Jared knows his profession very well. He knew exactly how to install the ceiling fan, and where the vent should go. Finished his job quickly! Great guy! ?"

"Finding a competent and professional Electrician was important to us and we wanted to do our homework first before making a choice. We reached out to 3 Electricians with good ratings on Angie's List and Eric with Home Pro Electric was the first to respond to us and he was flexible to accommodate our schedule. We were only looking to get a free estimate for the work we needed done at first, but, as Eric was diagnosing the issues he started getting his hands dirty was able to quickly resolve the problems we were having with our outdoor lights, ceiling fan and switches. He was personable, professional and knowledgeable. Needless to say, we hired him on the spot. He was also respectful of our home and came in wearing booties as not to get our rugs dirty. His prices were also fair and quite reasonable. We will continue to utilize his services for additional electrical needs on our home. I am so relieved we have finally found an electrician we can trust and depend on and will gladly refer him to our friends!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.
