Full Service Electrical and installation provider. If you suspect your electrical system could be damaged or malfunctioning, contact us right away. We will send a knowledgeable electrician out to identify the exact issue that is affecting your system. However, we do far more than just repairs, from LED lighting installation to electrical panel upgrade. At Kelco Electric, it's our job to make sure that all our electrical repairs are done carefully and correctly. When your electrical system is in need of repairs, it's dangerous to let the problem remain unsolved. Electrical systems are complex and interconnected, so when one component isn't working properly, the entire system is at risk. We know that your life is busy and dealing with electrical problems or upgrades isn't exactly on the top of your list. However, electrical work isn't something to be taken lightly. This is why our electricians are here to make sure you and your family are safe from electrical problems. We will always work to make sure your needs are met and all work is completed to electrical codes at reasonable prices.

"Kelco Electric did a great job. Randy and Isaiah were very professional and efficient. Arrived on time and had job finsihed within one hour. I will hire them again when I need electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

Yes, whole-house generators run constantly for extended periods. Whole-house generators can run for longer periods of time than portable generators, but be careful. First, they may need regular applications of engine oil (as frequently as daily), depending on the engine design. Second, running constantly for several days will increase the wear and tear on the generator and shorten its lifespan.
