"Office staff was super helpful in getting this generator installed. And, on the day of installation, the technicians never took a break. At the same time, were very accommodating and and answered our questions fully. Great install. I would (and have) recommend Hurricane Homes."

"They fit me into their schedule very quickly. Work was done efficiently and was solid. Installers were friendly and approachable. They accidentally double charged me, but cleared that issue up immediately and were very apologetic. Service with a heart... you can't beat that."

"I couldn't be happier with the work that Shawn and Chad did on my electrical upgrade, outlet repairs, outlet installs, and ceiling light installs. These two professionals went above and beyond my wildest expectations! Both men were very pleasant, professional, and knew exactly what they were doing. Even though it took them longer than anticipated due to my 113 year old house, I wasn't charged any additional amount over the original quote and the original quote was more than reasonable. I would definitely recommend 3-R Electric to anyone needing electrical work done. I also plan on hiring them again in the very near future to do some more lighting installations."

"It is my strong opinion that Hummingbird Electric is the company for any work you need at home or in office etc. As I am a thoroughly satisfied / repeat Customer, I want to take the time to share my earnest view, as I could not be happier with the Hummingbird team. I am a repeat Customer who has received nothing but high value and positive experiences. As a rental property owner, I get to work with a lot of crews (plus, my father was an electrician,) so I am always more critical on the electrical guys. ;) I have done MULTIPLE projects with the owner in years past and current. I refuse to even look at any other electricians. The level of professionalism, subject matter expertise, punctuality, quality of work performed is all 10 of 10 across the board. You won't find better. I had a lot of remodel, update all light fixtures, switches, wiring done for my previous home in 2020. The work was impeccable and was a very fair price. I realized, I need to make sure to always leverage these guys, as I was blown away. My Tesla jack they installed this month 2022 sincerely looks like a million bucks - most important to note is my appreciation of A) safety their team observes, B) the quality and precision of install, and lastly C) aesthetics of the work. They paid attention to items down to nitty gritty - for example, the conduit installed is absolutely level. The placement and install not only looks great, but it it is SOLID. Like, I cannot move the conduit, it is secure and correct. The only thing that is even more amazing than their implementation is their obvious attention to detail and caring about the work they do. I am someone that like to think I take pride in my work - so, I feel I recognize it in others. The owner is a professional and is down to earth and tries always to make sure you understand options, pros / cons, etc. That is big to me. In this world today, it is hard to find help, much less good help - or in Hummingbird's case AMAZING OUT OF THIS WORK support, it is not easy, I know. You found yourself the best Electrical company hands down - you will not be disappointed."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.
