"Great service!  Wanted to surprise my husband with a birthday present of an already installed new flat screen smart TV.  Dennis was flexible with my preference for scheduling on the day of my husband's birthday and gave me a very reasonable estimate over the phone for 2 to 2 1/2 hrs. work.  
Jeremy and Josh were punctual and professional.  After unpacking the TV, the mount and the in-wall outlet that I provided, they went to work running the wiring for the TV outlet above the fireplace and installing the cover plate.  Jeremy took great care to place the outlet so that it would be completely hidden by the TV.  They installed the mount on the TV and the wall, making sure everything was level and centered and hung the TV on the wall.  After they ensured the TV would turn on, they cleaned up after themselves and were in/out in just under 2 hours.  
The TV looks fantastic and NO MORE CABLE/WIRE in front of my beautiful fireplace! Believe me, there is no need to call the "home theatre installation" people - what a rip-off!   Easy Electrical will do the same thing.  Thanks guys!  I'll definitely call you again!!

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

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. 

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

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.
