"Troy did an amazing job on several projects for us. He installed a 220 sub panel box and wired in a new hot tub. Additionally, he wired up our basement during a remodel, same as a new construction build. We hired him back on for the project due to the professionalism and fairness he brought with him on his first job with us. I’m a meticulous guy and picky about how my electrical work looks. Troy came in above and beyond of what I was expecting with his order of neatness and cleanliness when laying his lines. Everything had to be perfect for him and I feel he exceeded what my high expectations were already. I would certainly only consider him for whatever our next electrical project is."

"I recently had an EV charger installed, and I couldnâ t be more pleased with the experience. Mike, the owner, was prompt in providing a competitive estimate and gave a clear, detailed explanation of the work to be done from start to finish. On the day of installation, the team completed the job ahead of schedule, working efficiently and with great attention to detail. The installation was done neatly, and the crew was both cordial and friendly throughout the process. I would highly recommend this company for any future work."

"We were walked through the products and installation as well as the benefits of a heat pump. The install was done in one day. Very quick and efficient. We've had the units running for about a month and they are awesome. We're very happy with our decision."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.
