"I had an emergency generator installed and one of the installers did not Install the gas line properly. After some calls and some back and forth, I get a call from customer service manager and she got someone out and took care of it family fast. The leak was still there and when they came out the second time discovered it was a new leak from the gas company changing out my meter. So the second leak was not the fault of this company. Their work on the generator and install was good, the customer service could use a bit of tweeking but overall I would definitely recommend."

"I commend the exceptional quality of service provided by CW Electrical Services Inc. I appreciated their efficient and responsive customer service, the level of detail and accountability they exhibited as my projects were completed, and the overall way they conducted business. I used Angie’s List to select five companies who specialized in the replacement of my electrical panel and breakers and the installation of flood lights in my backyard. I selected CW Electrical Services because of their excellent reviews, and I was not disappointed. I met with David Hoak who gave helpful advice regarding the type of backyard lighting I needed, the recommended location of these flood lights and outlets, and the selection of the best replacements for my electrical panel and breakers. He was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive to my needs. During the installation process, the collective abilities of the two electricians complimented each other during the meticulous installation process. They did an excellent job and I would recommend CW Electrical Services Inc. to others with no hesitation."

"I am beyond pleased with the services that Lenzi Electric, LLC has provided. The Electrician Larry Lenzi and his assistant went beyond what I expected by identifying the electrical needs required by the municipality and even putting in an electrical outlet that was not actually present and a 220 line that was not required. I cannot thank them enough. It is superb electrical services from fully licensed and insured technicians. The price was fair and comparable as well. I thank them for assisting me and Angi for having them as a contractor."

"Prodigy was very responsive and was able to install a new electric box within 1 day when the power was continuously going out in my home. The new main breaker and panel box fixed my issue and we were grateful that Prodigy was able to fit us in within 24 hours of the request! Great customer service."

FAQs for generator install projects in Clairton, PA

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
