"We had a project to install a generator hook-up point and a new 240 line for a central air conditioner. The Electrician, Wes, has to "fish" a wire through our garage wall ceiling to reach the outside wall - the work was completed very quickly and well done. If you need high quality electrical work S & S Electric is an excellent choice."

"We had a great experience with Andrus. Tony came out before our Kohler generator installation to clean up our electrical panel and did an incredibly thorough job. Everything was left clean and organized. The generator installation itself went very smoothly. The team was professional, knowledgeable and respectful of our property, and everything was explained clearly along the way. We're very happy with the finished installation and feel much better knowing we're prepared for the next outage. Would definitely recommend Andrus!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

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.
