"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."

"Mike and his assistant replaced my seriously outdated smoke detectors in the basement and first floor, replaced a second floor smoke detector with a combo smoke/carbon monoxide detector and in the attic replaced a heat detector. While at my house, they also looked at a poorly installed outlet in the basement and brought it up to standard and installed an outlet on my front porch! They were quick and extremely helpful and left no mess behind. I will definitely call MKS Electric again if I need any further electrical work done at my house."

"The workmanship was top notch. New sump pump, back up battery, plumbing and new drains were installed. The guys who installed were very professional and cleaned up after themselves. All of the above at what I though was a very fair price. I would use them again in a heartbeat."

"I would recommend this electrician to everyone I know. We purchased a new home and they were very flexible working around the plumbers and the carpet installation as well. The work is top quality and they were very accommodating to our vision for what we wanted. Corey also made helpful suggestions as we planned the project for things we may not have thought of and let us choose what we wanted. Couldn't be happier with the entire experience!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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.
