"Donovan did fantastic work, reasonable prices, immaculate cleanup. Went above & beyond to disclose a serious Comcast wiring issue where transformer was missing on outside of house while there major wire & grounding wire was inside my home! He helped me put together a report to BBB who immediately got Comcast to rectify the non-code compliant & dangerous situation. I just thought my poor internet was something I had to live with because seven b years of Comcast techs coming to my home said nothing was wrong. Seven years & dozens of techs who were not even aware let alone fixed the non-code compliant install they did! Thank God that Donovan at Any Electrical Need & the BBB got Comcast to rectify things. Clearly all those Comcast techs needed retraining."

"Don and his crew at Newtown Heating and Air were terrific.
Their quote for the job was fair and reasonable.
We had gotten estimates from other companies for more costly units.
Don explained why a smaller unit would work for us, saving us thousands of dollars.
When small modifications were needed, he stuck by his quote , which you rarely see in this field. Strong integrity.
They took steps to protect the cleanliness of our house, when work was required inside..
His group of co-workers were friendly and efficient.
They took the time to test the unit and make sure we were educated on its features and usage
All in all it was an A+ experience from start to finish and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

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.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
