"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 FAQs, answered by experts

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

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.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
