"A technician from Thomas Edison Electric was available to come to our home on the same day of my request for project quotes. He was able to problem solve the issue and prepared a quote for upgrading the electric vehicle charger. We have not yet decided to do the upgrade but much appreciated the consultation and quote."

"The owner Nate came to our house and provided a quote. His team did an excellent job following-up to schedule the job, securing the township permits, and installing the generator. I highly recommend hiring Monyer Electric if you're looking for a back-up generator."

"Very professional! Arrived within the scheduled time frame, laid drop cloths to protect our floors, went right to work, cleaned up afterwards and even took the old fixture away so I didn’t have to worry about disposing of it. I will now always call All About Generators first!"

"We had a complicated request in that the project we wanted done was the installation and setup of both a Solar Panel system and a Whole Home Generator. The project started in March 2022 with the owner, Nate, responding to my contact request for a quote along with two other firms all of whom came within a few dollars of one another. My initial dealing with Nate as well as his response to questions after meeting convinced me he was the best choice which proved to be correct. Nate provided very detailed quotes for both portions of the project that laid everything out clearly in black and white. We knew there would be delays at our end with securing a home equity loan and dealing with our HOA and Township and Nate was upfront about supply delays, mark before you dig delays (it was determined early our natural gas line was undersized and needed replaced and done at no charge by the utility), inspections and finally the interconnect to the grid. All of these where handled between us and Monyer and although a slow process as he had described it went smoothly. Even before the Generator had arrived they had us scheduled pending the delivery of the Generator so we had a locked in date. Shipping held up them receiving the Generator but they reached out as soon as they knew and we rescheduled the installation based on the new ETA and they where easy to work with scheduling when I could be home and not traveling for work. The day of installation came and the Generator was installed very professionally and neatly and I was given a very good training on what I needed to know. Shortly after the Generator Installation being completed the Solar Equipment was received by the Solar company Nate contracts with to do that specialized work and again they scheduled us when it worked for them around when I would be home for several days as it is a much more complicated installation both on the roof and at the meter but again everything went like butter and was done neatly and professionally. At this point we where actually up and running with the Solar Panels generating power and the Whole Home Generator ready to do its job in the event of a power outage but we still needed the final Township inspection and the replacement of the electric meter with a bidirectional meter. We knew from previous experience that our Township works in its own sweet time which they did but the work passed inspection with no problems and then with two weeks our electric utility had the new bidirectional meter installed completing the project in its entirety in mid-November 2022 at which point final payment was made. Throughout the entire process Nate or a member of his staff was always in contact with us keeping us informed as to how their side of the project was going and keeping up to date with the little we had to stay on top of as the home owners. It was the same for Monyers Solar contractor who was always in contact with us and responded to us quickly when we reached out to them. I cannot say enough good things about our dealings with Monyer Electric from before starting to the ultimate finish."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

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.

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator.
