"So much YES!!! John called me back within one business day of my initial inquiry to give us a quote and explain the generator transfer switch install process. We set an appointment for which Bill showed up exactly on time. He was OUTSTANDING. He explained everything he was planning to do, answered our questions along the way, gave us status updates and even though our house wasnâ t the most cooperative, went above & beyond to put the transfer switch in a spot that was more challenging for him but more convenient for us. Top notch customer service. He walked us through how to work everything and simulated a power outage to ensure it was perfect. And it was. John Gambino Electric has new lifelong customers. Thanks John & Bill!!!"

"Jason installed doorbells at 2 doors. There were no functioning doorbells when I purchased this house 5 years ago. Various contractors warned me of the difficulty and expense of hardwired installations, making me put off the project. Wireless doorbells were unreliable. I was encouraged by James, who did my annual electrical maintenance, and scheduled the work for me. Jason did a fantastic job by creative thinking to avoid the difficulties I'd previously been warned about. He did the job quickly, neatly, and very successfully. I am thrilled to have working doorbells for the first time in 5 years!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

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. 

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.
