Also, builder didn’t use full dimensional lumber, but used ijoists without fire protection. Carried plastic gas line through the crawl space wall. Used 5x5 wooden piers to hold up my home instead of building block piers. Had to install jack posts to cover for this."

Founded in 1997, InterHome Technologies, Inc., the corporate entity under which RC WATT operates, has the Corporate Vision: Provide clients with innovative home technologies that improve their quality of life. RC WATT builds on the Vision with the Mission: Provide clients with "Reliable Convenient Power" using onsite power systems. Today's homeowner seeks our permanently installed, backup offerings, because they want the benefits of having power restored automatically, in seconds, when millions of other people in the U.S., lose power each week. Today's home is more than the family hub - it is for many the work place, and for others - a place to convalesce. Home office and medical equipment need electricity. While electricity was a luxury a hundred years ago; today electricity is essential to our way of life. Centrally produced power, certainly a great value, comes with the limitations of reliability inherit with miles of wires and other infrastructure. Please carefully consider the question: When is a good time to lose power? Utility power outages are unpredictable. Given the affordability of today's onsite power systems, the quality solutions we provide enable our clients to enjoy the best of both models.

"From start to finish RCWatt was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. There was no high sales pressure. RCWatt arrived on time, assessed my individual situation, inspected the inside and outside of my house to determine the best site for installation, and presented options for me based on what we discussed. He explained every aspect in detail and answered each and every question to my satisfaction. I approved the options to update my 35 year old electrical service and panel at a discount as well as the addition of full house surge protection. The generator was installed within 30 days of my acceptance. The technicians were very professional and friendly and stayed on the job that day until it was finished! The areas they worked within were as clean when they left as when they arrived. Matt was very knowledgeable and gave great instructions on the generator's use following it's installation. I highly recommend RCWatt and would choose this firm again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

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. 

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
