"Michael came out and installed an outlet for me in a timely manner at a very reasonable cost. I was extremely pleased with the quality of his work, professionalism, and knowledge. Michael was friendly, efficient, and made sure everything was done right. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing electrical work and will use him again in the future."

"We purchased a fixerupper and tried to get the Breaker Panel replaced for 4 months to no avail. One contractor came but never gave us a bid. Another told us he was very busy and put us on his list. When the 45 yr old panel started to arch and lights blinked we called the fire dept and they encouraged us to find an electrician asap. We found a company that said they were available day and night. That proved not to be true. We were scheduled and rescheduled days out. We had contacted HomeAdvisor who put us in contact with True Fuse Electric. Brad Will examined our issue, rearranged his scheduled and got a new panel installed days before anyone else would even come. Mr. Will was helpful to explain everything to us. He was prompt and his work is neat and clean. We have confidence our electrical issue has been adequately repaired and at a very fair price. Knowing we were anxious about the situation he could have charged much more but his price was quite fair. We are very pleased and Glad to recommend True Fuse Electric. Thanks Home Advisor for connecting us."

"The electricians and plumbers were very professional in their demeanor. They worked as a team, everyone knew what to do and how to do it. They answered all my questions, but didn't let that distract them from their job. I was impressed with the speed of the installation. They cleaned up after themselves and took their trash with them."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

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.

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.
