"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 *****!!"

"Bay and his crew were outstanding from start to finish. Bay communicated clearly, provided a fair and transparent quote, and showed real integrity throughout the project. Logan and Gino were equally impressive—an engaging, highly capable crew who made the work feel smooth and well organized. They were very flexible when my plans changed from replacing two light fixtures to installing ceiling fans with light dimmers. They also decommissioned and safely capped an existing light-fixture junction box, then installed a new electrical box, wiring, and mounting hardware for a pool table light fixture in a different location. The result looks great, allowed the pool table to be installed the next day and I’m very happy with the whole experience. I’ll absolutely be reaching out to Bay and his team for additional work already planned down the road. Highly recommend! Spot on experience."

"We were affected by Hurricane Helene and had no power. I was running extensions all throughout my house to my generator and it was an absolute mess. I called Greg seeing if he had availability to hook my generator up to my breaker box and told him my situation and how we had no idea how long this outage would last. Greg wasted no time at all to get over here. He was very professional, punctual, funny, and kind. He had my generator hooked up to my breaker box in less than a hour and it was such a blessing. We ended up going 5-1/2 days with no power and it was so much easier to bear this storm with my 3 young kids thanks to Greg’s work. We will definitely be calling Avila Electric for all of our electrical needs!"

"Corley is great when it comes to routine service checks. They always make suggestions of what can be done to improve systems and provide the costs up front. I personally find that to be expensive so I rarely agree to have anything added. I would recommend them for your routine checks!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

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.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.
