My name is Nektarios "Nick" Arsenis and I am the proud owner of Naxos Electric. My company is named after the island I was born and raised on in Greece. It was there at the early age of 15 that I began my electrical career, which I continued to pursue when I came to the USA in 2000. Naxos Electric is founded on the same ethics and values that I was raised with: reliability, great communication, integrity and quality work. I strongly believe in giving my absolute best on all projects and look forward to assisting you with your next task or project. We are fully licensed and insured. Call us today at (401) 330-0175 for a free estimate!

"Aside from the fact that my lights are working now, I want to say how much I appreciate Nick's professionalism and prompt attention to my problem. The power outage was in an office area that I needed access to for work in the evening and Nick (hearing the desperation in my voice) moved his schedule around and was willing to come to my home 90 minutes later. It was after hours and he was willing to do me a great kindness at a reasonable cost. What more could you ask?"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.
