"Last Monday, Nov. 3, I had some major surgery done on my GENERAC generator. It was time for "Super Maintenance" and your service man did a SUPER job! His name is Joe and he did a great job servicing my machine. He arrived on time and went right to work. He changed the oil and oil filter, put in a new battery, adjusted the valves, put in a new air filter, and even cleaned the top of the generator. All this while i looked over his shoulder and asked questions, lots of questions. I am impressed with Mr. Joe. He is very knowledgeable about your products, well spoken, and easy to talk to. It took him less than an hour to complete his work, despite my constant jabbering. He's a KEEPER! Thank You Trinity, And Thank You Joe! Paul O Weller Trinity Client"

"Bill H from Gambino Electric showed up promptly on time for the job. There were some edge ceiling tiles that needed to be removed to reach the power line and Bill did very clean work with the removal and disposal. Bill showed cross sections of the older range power line and the new line installed, describing the differences in insulation and safety features of the newer line. Bill went above and beyond by detecting the wrong cord on the new range, and replaced this with the proper range gauge power cord. Bill also helped us to correctly position and level the new range appliance. I would recommend Bill and Gambino Electric for any similar household wiring job where safety and quality of work are a priority."

"John did another excellent and timely job. He answers any / all questions related to the job; proposes options (and pricing) and will make the best recommendation that is NOT exclusively the higher priced option. He responds quickly to calls; makes a service call appointment as mutually convenient as possible and calls before he arrives. I have used him previously for an attic fan issue (which he resolved quickly and at no charge) and for dimmer switch replacements. Things went smoothly. John is my "Go To" electrician and I highly recommend him anytime that an electrician is needed."

"Nick Murray, one of the Murray brothers, replaced a circuit breakers panel in the basement and installed a full house generator with switch panel on my house. Nick did a great job! Very professional and courteous. I would definitely recommend this company for electric works."

"Lights On was first class from the initial diagnosis of my issue to coming out to do the work. They let me know what was wrong, what needed to be fixed, and how they will do it all clearly. I had fixtures replaces, bulbs replaced, and a new ground installed. When there was an issue afterwards, they came back and took care of issue. I would highly recommend."

"Eric and his team were very professional and very easy to work with. We lived in our home the entire time the second story addition was being built, and had no issues. Eric did a great job of keeping us informed along every step of the way, especially as to any issues which cropped up (as invariably will happen) and did a good job of presenting us with our options, explaining things to use, and keeping us on task. He was patient with us when we delayed in making decisions, or changed our minds. The work was completed in a timely manner and came in right around the estimate Eric had given us at the onset. Eric's pricing was competitive, not the cheapest but not the most expensive either, and we definitely feel that we received quality work and materials for what we paid. We've been living/using our new space for about 3 months now and are so pleased with it. Highly highly recommend!"

"Dave and his guys did a great job, as always. He came out next day. Fixed an outdoor outlet by my pool and installed a Ring flood light and camera for my side yard. Done within an hour at a very reasonable price. Can't recommend them enough."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

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. 

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

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

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

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

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window.
