"I hired Pierce Creek to wire and install a 240V hot tub disconnect and a home generator transfer switch, and they did an outstanding job. Jacob was fantastic—highly knowledgeable, professional, and extremely reliable. The work was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend them for any residential electrical needs!"

"Both Brandon and Jonathan were excellent to work with. They are true professionals. They've installed a full solar, inverter, and battery backup system for me on two different occasions. They communicate well before, during, and after the project. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking for electrical work. Especially for batteries, solar, and backup power. Also, the second picture is before they were finished. They always leave a very clean and organized job site."

"I have used BCE for many electrical projects. They have done a complete rewire for a complete kitchen remodel, installed additional circuits for hot tubs, garbage disposal. They have done a complete shop working job and installed a generator lock out set up for my whole property. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer BCE for any electrical projects. Their professionalism and punctuality is paramount and what you need when the project needs done on time! Friendly and very knowledgeable about all your electrical needs."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

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.

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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
