At Sunrise Electric, we believe that top notch service is key to any great business. Whether it's your favorite restaurant, or a professional electrician in your home, the way you are treated decides more than anything else if you will come back or not. That's why when we're in your home, you're not a customer to us, you're family. We treat others as we would like to be treated, so when it comes to value we want to give you the best bang for your buck. We strive to be YOUR trusted electrician, the one you call on from time to time, not "that electrician that took advantage of us". We guarantee all of our work for at least a year, so if anything goes wrong you can call us day or night, and we will make it right. We are reliable as the rising sun and will strive to be up front and honest every time... because if you can't trust someone to show up on time, how can you trust them to work on your home. Free Evaluations!

"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

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.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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.
