"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."

"Karl and his team were extremely responsive and not only called me back promptly, but Karl had his crew out to my house later the same day, estimating when other jobs would be done. I have now used Kode Electric 3 times, twice for fixture installs and wiring issue and once for setting up a dedicated electrical outlet for a treadmill. They kept the area clean, removed all debris and were prompt and quick. Just like finding a good doctor or a great mechanic, finding an electrician you can trust for any level job is a blessing. I would recommend Kode electric for any of their electrical jobs. I will possibly have some exterior lighting done in warmer months(I just have to figure out what Iâ m looking for), and will absolutely call Karl and his team at Kode Electric. Very reasonably priced and while I can do basic fixture installs, jobs like my 2nd story light or exterior light which had a frayed wire, I know my limitations and called this great professional to do it at a very reasonable price(less expensive than renting an interior ladder from Home Depot, without the fear of being at a height). Highly recommend this company and the personal touch Karl gives you as well as his friendly employees."

"C.J. was very professional, very skilled and did an excellent job installing two heavy chandeliers - one to replace an old one and one to be moved to center over the kitchen table. I was amazed at how he went about his job; he was very precise and very careful to get the job done right and to our satisfaction. I was also very impressed with this young man who not only did a great job but did it all my himself, prepped the site and cleaned it after the work was done. I would recommend him for any electrical job. Theresa A."

"I’m very happy with the speaker installation! The pro was professional, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job from start to finish. He took his time to make sure everything was installed properly, the wiring was clean, and the speakers sounded great. He was also respectful of my home and cleaned everything up when the job was finished. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for quality speaker installation. Great work and great service!"

"So far so good with Sparky. Waiting for him to reschedule the replacement of defaulted circuit breakers in basement. He did a great job on installing a replacement fixture in our kitchen. And the price was good, and the service even better."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

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. 

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.
