"Scheduling for the bid was backed out a ways - and therefore delayed my project a little... but, as it turns out, I'm glad I waited the extra couple of weeks. Scheduling was otherwise very easy. Once I chose Peak, scheduling the work was a more reasonable wait. Everyone I dealt with was professional and communicated clearly from start to finish... they gladly answered any questions I had (I tend to ask a lot of questions). The work was well done. Electrician wasn't familiar with the particular brand of charger I had purchased, but was able to figure out everything that wasn't immediately obvious by just looking in the installation instructions provided. In hindsight, I probably could have handled the job (knowing what I know now)... but am definitely still glad to have had a licensed electrician do this work - which was required to be eligible for some utility and tax rebates anyway - and have the peace of mind that comes with it. I Received quotes/bids from multiple contractors... only one was potentially less - but it was lacking in details (permit costs, etc.) - and was about the same price for the things that were listed. I like to "shop union" when possible, so I was pleased that Peak was a Union shop... and, as an added benefit, had a $200 coupon through the Union (IBEW) - so it ended up being the least expensive bid overall. The price was reasonable for the work... and I paid exactly what was bid - not a penny more. I would not hesitate to hire Peak again for any electrical work I need done."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.
