"Guys showed up on time and quickly diagnosed and fixed problem. While here we discussed she and load on house panel and had them install a whole-house surge protector. I had a post house get toasted by a lightning strike so seemed prudent given electronics in house."

"Scheduling with Breeze was super simple and they were able to accommodate my busy schedule. My technician was polite and was able to trouble shoot errors that a previous electrician made. I wish I had used them to begin with. The Generator was Installed in one afternoon too! As for pricing I thought they were average. You get what you pay for though, they do quality work so I donâ t mind paying a little more. Less headaches in the long run!!!"

"Installed kitchen lighting along with porch custom lighting. The work was done in a timely manner at a competitive rate. Jeremy is good at what he does however it is important to remember that he is the owner of a company so he cannot be at every job. I was lucky enough to have Jeremy customize my projects needs. The solution he offered was something that others did not think of.

 To summarize, Jeremy is a great troubleshooter and an even better electrical contractor. I am pleased with his work and would highly recommend him. He is also very responsive during emergencies. Keep his number on hand. You will be thankful when your power cuts out due to a storm and the only person who helps you is Jeremy at a moments notice."

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

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.
