"My son had a whole house generator installed by this company. Very pleased. I had a whole house generator installed also. Had a water softener installed too. They did a great job. Very friendly and skilled workers. Came on time and finished on time. I couldn't be happier. Fair price, great products and great service. Could not ask for more"

"Tri-County Electric Services was able to send a plumber out the next day to provide estimates for a few projects in my home. Chris M. arrived at my home and was professional, knowledgable, straight forward, and friendly. He quoted me fair prices to install a new toilet and new kitchen faucet, both of which I had previously purchased independently and had at home ready to install. I was very happy that he was able to complete the installs that day. He also fixed a minor leak below a bathroom sink. All around a great experience! I will definitely hire them again for future plumbing needs. Chris explained that the company recently added a plumbing division to complement their electric services. Thank you for a job well done!"

"The install went extremely well. The old faucet was removed and new one installed in less than an hour. I can’t recall the plumbers name but he was very courteous and professional. The only issue I had was with the price. $739 to install what they quoted as a $350 faucet. That’s a might steep hourly rate. Even for a plumber."

"Very well. The All Electric Inc. electrician, Ashton did an excellent job in a reasonable amount of time. He was knowledgeable and neat as well as cleaning the area when the project was finished. I would consider All Electric and definitely Ashton for any future projects. Thank you, Henry Miller/Campbell, Ohio"

Communication was excellent, the work was professional, and the installation was completed neatly with attention to detail. The team took the time to explain the options and delivered a clean, high-quality result. I would definitely recommend Lakewise Electric to anyone looking for EV charger installation or other electrical work."

"These guys were great. Good communication beforehand, provided a solid quote and did the install exactly as I had hoped for. This was for a 100 amp circuit for a high powered charger for my Tesla electric car. Jason is great, dependable and trustworthy. They got the whole job done in a day and cleaned everything up before they left. I’ll definitely hire JAS again. Highly recommend. A+"

Unlike that noisy portable generator that you have to hook up when the power goes out, a standby generator is a permanent, professionally installed unit that automatically turns on the moment the power goes out. Standby generators run powerfully, quietly and efficiently until the power outage ends.\n\n \n\nThe Cummins QuietConnect™ Series includes compact, powerful and quiet whole home standby generators suited to a range of homes sizes. And Cummins standby generators are backed by an industry-leading warranty.\n\n \n\nSears installs two packages of Cummins QuietConnect air-cooled standby generators — standard air-cooled models that operate to 0 degrees Fahrenheit, and extreme-temperature air-cooled models that operate to –40 degrees Fahrenheit. The air-cooled generator models have an output of 13 to 20 kilowatts, to suit different sizes of homes.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

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.
