"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 *****!!"

"SUMMARY: HIGH QUALITY WORK WITH LARGE PRICETAG. Corley plumber arrived on time. Their plumber was polite and offered several options for the repair. The repair was completed correctly and in a timely manner. Work area was cleaned after plumbing work was completed. No problems with the repair since it was completed which was several years ago. In short, I would give them FIVE STARS FOR THE QUALITY OF THEIR WORK. I would hire them again in an EMERGENCY (which is why I hired them for this work; the usual plumbers I use were unavailable), but NOT for non-emergency work. My reason for not wanting to use them for routine work is that their prices were OUTRAGEOUS and I'm not a miser (this is why I removed one star in my rating). The few replacement parts needed would have been nominal cost at a plumbing supply store. That means their labor was $200+/hr for installing compression fit connections which is even easier and quicker than gluing PVC pipes together (no heavy lifting; nothing complicated; easy access to pipes). I've had other plumbing jobs that were too big for me to do. I've found competent plumbers that do a great job (quality like Corley's) for half the price if you are willing to wait a day or two. Lesson: Instant gratification has a high price tag. FYI: They will charge for the cost estimate if you don't have them do the repair."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

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.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

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.
