"I received a return call within an hour to schedule a time for the electrician to come over & give me an estimate. Quick turnaround and had my project complete quickly. Pat came out and looked @ our existing box and breakers and tried to complete the project as cost effectively as possible. Due to the age of our existing box it was not possible to simply change the breakers and he had to install a whole new electrical box. Even though he had to install the new box he completed the project in one day. Dan was very personable and professional in rendering his services. Thank you a job well done."

"They are very skilled, knowlegeable, and professional. I really appreciate their flexibility in the installation process by using in two phases to accommodate my request to install sooner if there are cancellations. The electrician who installed the transfer switch wore a mask and left the area cleaner than he found it :) I am sure the generator installation will go just as smoothly as the transfer switch install."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

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.
