"Office staff was super helpful in getting this generator installed. And, on the day of installation, the technicians never took a break. At the same time, were very accommodating and and answered our questions fully. Great install. I would (and have) recommend Hurricane Homes."

"Jon had been the one to come out last time when my light was making scary crackling noises. He returned again to do the light install/replacement. He was great about answering my questions. Jon was very kind about not laughing at me when I freaked out about a cache of dead stinkbugs, and he took the extra step of getting his shopvac to suck up all the bodies. The lamps are a little complicated, and Jon made sure I knew all the steps I would need to take to change a lightbulb. CW Electrical Services has been my go-to company since I moved into my house in 2011. They have wonderful customer service, short (or non-existent) wait times for appointments, and every technician I have met has been both top-notch with their knowledge and skill as well as personable and professional."

"Professionalism all the way. From scheduling with Miranda, to letting me know when Ryan (Electrician) would arrive and her follow up after the job was done to assure my satisfaction with the work, added the personal touch to their business. Great Customer Service!! As for Ryan, the licensed Electrician, he was professional, explained everything and completed the job efficiently and aesthetically pleasing. I needed a GFI for my irrigation system. It was originally housed in a rotted cabinet on the side of the house. He removed the old and installed a GFI switch and hung the irrigation mechanism and made it look pleasing. He also informed me that my circuit board was Very Old and suggested i replace the breakers. Funny thing, i had a list of things to check inside the house after he was done. When we entered the home after he replaced the circuit breakers, all the things (fans, lights, etc) that had not been working....were all on and working. Thanks Ryan! I feel safe in my home thanks to Ryan. It is very comforting knowing that a knowledgeable Licensed Electrician assures that your home is safe! Wonderful electrician and reasonably priced! I Highly Recommend Mauser Electric for your electrical needs. I have plans to use him again to have a few new lines installed for outside lights. And of course, for any other incidentals that may arise in years to come. I am glad to have hooked up with such a Professional Electrician! Great Company!!"

"I talked to Nick in the morning and he was able to work me in that afternoon, at a very reasonable price. Gave me multiple options on the install, finished the job in a timely manner, and cleaned the area up completely. I would highly recommend J&J !"

"Prodigy was very responsive and was able to install a new electric box within 1 day when the power was continuously going out in my home. The new main breaker and panel box fixed my issue and we were grateful that Prodigy was able to fit us in within 24 hours of the request! Great customer service."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

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.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
