"I have been a customer with AHS since 2006 in 2 states. I recently assisted my daughter with a new home purchase. AHS contracts with One way Electrical in that area. We had some electrical concerns. Doug was our service technician. He was knowledgeable and professional. We had a challenge after our visit and he immediately offered a solution that worked immediately."

"I had a great experience with Paul and his team. They were efficient in coming in and assessing the electrical issues after purchasing a home. They were great and explained everything, and the workmanship was top notch. Making sure that all the old GFIC outlets were working and wired up correctly and running line for a dehumidifier to its own circuit. I will be using them again in the future for any electrical work. It was a wonderful experience and managed correctly."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

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. 

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

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
