"Mr. Green TRULY puts the customer first! He installed a whole house generator for me last August and called to check on us 6 months later because bad weather is coming. Brought me a key and showed me (again) how to add oil. I had several estimates and he beat other prices by several thousand $ AND he installed a bigger generator! I will definitely hire him again and recommend him to every one!! 5 star service *****!!"

"5 stars! Mark Chapman with US Energy Solutions just installed a manual transfer switch box for my portable generator. The work was done professionally, on time, and very reasonably priced. Mark tested the install before he finished and it was perfect the first time. He was knowledgeable and experienced. My next electrical project will start with a call to Mark!"

"Serge and Reuben were very kind and professional. They showed up on time, managed the permits and inspections in record time. AND got the power company in my area on board in record time also! This in the middle of storm damage all over our town! When there were some issues with wiring (as there always is in a house built initially in 1940 and added to in no apparent plan, quirky but cool!) Serge explained them to me and we came up with a plan and though he could have, didn't charge me for the extra effort. We discussed some future projects as the remodel goes forward and he ran wires for them so it will be a go when we get there. I couldn't have asked for better service, better communication, better replacement equipment and better understanding when I wanted to change things on the fly. He will be my go to guy for all future projects and I would recommend him highly and plan to with everyone I know. He does commercial and residential and is truly a part of the pro family now"

"Kevin with Cerberus did a fantastic job with our electrical with our remodel. We had 2 walls removed and an island and bathroom installed. He removed all the wiring with the old receptacles in the walls that were removed and he installed all new outlets in our kitchen and in the new island. He rewired all the switches to work with the new lights and cleaned everything up. He did a fantastic job, always on time and no issues."

"My initial inquiry was quickly responded to by the business owner. We discussed the problem, and he provided good advice. Based on that I hired him and scheduled the visit. Everything went smoothly and the work was completed to my satisfaction. I would hire DJ Geter again and refer him to anyone who asks me who my electrician is."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator. 

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

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.

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.

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.
