"They went above and beyond excellency to help us. We did not have any heat at all because our furnace was old and could not be repaired. They stayed in constant contact with us until we got our new unit installed. They genuinely cared and were very compassionate. We have used them numerous times before for smaller jobs, and they are always on time and dependable. Their standards are so extremely that their competitiom has their work cut out for them! We would not consider using anyone else. We are lifetime customers."

"Knowledgeable, trustworthy, and extremely detail oriented. If your contractor is pickier than you are, then you know youâ re in good hands. I had an idea for a built in media console and shelving unit. Tyler came in for an initial consultation and did a great job of making sure he incorporated all of our wants and needs into the finished project. He finished the job on time, on budget, and I could not be happier. My go to for any projects in my home from here on out."

"Game room needed completely rewired. He took a spiderweb of conduits, ran a single conduit down the middle of the building and reconnected everything. Wiring in the room was changed from chaos to a neat, clean efficient looking power supply. He even converted unused light switches to usable outlets. Extremely happy with his work. He is very personable and easy to work with."

"He was punctual and timely, and was very quick with the installation. The entire job took less than two hours. Better yet, the outside box installation was clean and the box was straight. It drives me crazy when contractors install things lopsided. I also had him install a home-wide surge protector, for which he did not charge additional labor. He was also in a great mood. I could not be happier and will be calling DNA again the next time I need work done."

"The tech (Christian?) was very professional and amiable. He had the unit running again fairly quickly and tested it. He took the time to talk to me about operating the generator and a friendly conversation. I hope he comes back next on the next service date."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.
