"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 determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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. 

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.
