"Dan and his team did a fantastic job. My initial issue ended up being a lot more elaborate than initially anticipated but I was so pleased with their initial work I hired them again to address the larger system issue. I absolutely recommend and will definitely look to hire them again next time I have any electrical problems."

"     The lights accenting the front of our house were 15 years old and only a couple of them were working.  Because the shrubbery in front of the house had grown, the remaining lights weren't tall enough to throw much light at all.  We needed a new solution.  Dave was extremely prompt with contacting me and returning all calls made in an effort to coordinate schedules.  He arrived exactly when he said he would and worked for 6 hours.  I had to be at school the day he came so my husband stayed home.  Because this project was so important to me, I wanted to speak with Dave after he took a look at what we currently had so I called him from school. He explained very clearly what he thought we should do.  Both my husband and I agreed so Dave went to our local Lowe's to buy a different type of light.  He also installed a more efficient power source.  He said he would save our old lights that were still working so that we could run more wiring off what he was going to install if we wanted to use the old lights to light up another area of the yard.  By the time I got home that evening, it was already dark.  When I pulled up to our house, I had to stop the car and just sit there and look!  The lighting was spectacular.  The house never looked so good!  I had to call Dave and tell him what a fabulous job he had done.  There was another surprise.  He had me walk outside and showed me how he had gone ahead and taken our old lights and installed them to light the side of the house and some shrubbery in the front yard!  WOW!!
     I had briefly mentioned that our chandelier in the entry way always flickered when we turned it on and that there was a prong broken off a cord that was sticking in one of our electrical outlets on our deck.  He took the time to fix both of those things also.  
     For the extra 4 hours of work, Dave charged us only the Angie's List deal rate which was $40.00 an hour--what a bargain.  Everything about this job was done professionally and my husband said that Dave is a "really nice guy."  We have already spoken to him about coming back in the spring to work on a project in our backyard.  
     This was my second experience with Angie's List providers.  Both were outstanding.  I will always come to Angie's List first for our future needs.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.
