"I asked for a team to install and wire 8 kitchen can lights. Great professional team that came in on time, did a great job protecting the kitchen, finished the job in less than 2 hours, and cleaned up behind themselves entirely. They charged a very reasonable price, and made the whole project as smooth and seamless as possible. Definitely recommend for your project."

"Excellent and efficient service, on time for appointment, repaired our Generac generator with OEM parts. I've always believed, if you can't explain it simply...you don't understand it well enough. This guy knows his stuff. The technician explained all repairs while making recommendations for future care and preventative maintenance. We understood and felt confident in our maintenance/repair decisions. One stop shop for generator, electrical and heating repair and including oil and propane products. We will be using them going forward for their services. Highly recommended!"

"When I called Andy to request an estimate, he came out the same day to look over the job in order to see what I wanted to have done which made me very happy. He did a good job with the electrical portion of the job (electrical component/wiring installation and electrical terminations). Primarily the only issue I had was that when he told me a time that he would be arriving at the house to start working for the day, he would show up anywhere from 1/2 hour to 1 1/2 hours later than he stated that he would arrive which did not make me very happy. He didn't have the courtesy to call me when he was going to be late to inform me of his tardiness."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

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.
