"Ideal experience with this company! They contacted me and came out to make the bid the same day I contacted them. They were super flexible and worked to accommodate my schedule. I needed to wait until my EV charger arrived from the manufacturer. They came out the day after it arrived, installed the unit in under two hours, and it's been working flawlessly ever since. Don't let their name fool you--John's Waterproofing is expert at electrical work! I will use them again."

"I needed a Tesla charger installed in my garage. They showed up to the house quickly, and were very knowledgeable on what to do and what i needed. They installed it within an hour, with very quality parts, and were very neat and tidy about it too. No issues since install! I definitely would consider them again in the future!"

"I called Native Electric when I was looking for someone to inspect my ceiling fans. Communications were good. Mike called me an hour before my appointment to reschedule, as the job he had was taking much longer than expected--scope creep by the customer. Mike called me an hour or two before our next appointment to confirm that we were still on. Mike was very patient with my vague descriptions of problems and inspected each fan: three fans are fine, and the motor on one is wearing out. He charged me only $50 instead of the usual $70 because the visit was so short. When that motor goes out, I'll be calling Mike to install the new fan."

"We hired Distinct Electric to do our new construction electrical. They did a fantastic job and helped us with great design ideas as well. The 6 or 7 employees I met during the construction process were all polite and professional. I am having them back out to install Generac generator in a month or so. Highly recommend."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

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.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.
