"Blue Star did a stellar job and would hire again. We had a bad storm to which a branch fell on our electrical wiring disconnecting the power from the home. Hank and his team made our situation a top priority to get us back up an running, even in the poor weather. In addition, I requested a certain installation with the uncertainty of it being completed...Hank came through on that too! Blue Star did a great job explaining and walking us through the job to understand, quoted a good price, and completed stellar work to finish the job! Thanks, Blue Star!"

"I hired Paul to put in a tile shower in my upstairs bath. My husband had already removed the tub and started some of the work. Paul was very accommodating at working with what my husband had done. He and his crew put in the shower floor and even made me a little foot rest in the corner. They put in the new faucets and body jets for me and did all the tile work. He also worked with Crystal Illusions to get the glass and shower doors ordered. My shower is wonderful and I am so happy it is finished. Thanks guys."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

Yes, whole-house generators run constantly for extended periods. Whole-house generators can run for longer periods of time than portable generators, but be careful. First, they may need regular applications of engine oil (as frequently as daily), depending on the engine design. Second, running constantly for several days will increase the wear and tear on the generator and shorten its lifespan.
