"Stephens Electric replaced two 30-year-old fluorescent light fixtures in my kitchen with LEDs. I could not be happier with the work that was performed. I highly recommend this guy for all your electrical needs. He responds immediately to email and text messages and made some really good suggestions on what to buy to complete my project. The total installation time was about 90 minutes and the labor cost was very reasonable. I will use this person for all my future electrical jobs. ?"

"I have used Power Solutions for a number of years and have been very pleased by the work performed by Mr. Raymond. However, I paid $427.00 for twice a year service in November 2022. To date, I have not received any service, nor does Power Solutions return my calls or my emails. I am truly surprised by this as I always received excellent service from them in the past. Regarding the next question on this form, money was paid but no services were performed. Regarding the question of would I hire them again, unless someone can explain what is happening, I probably would not hire them again."

We aren't working for Angie's list any more

"We had two heat and a/c units that had to be replaced at our home. We got 4 estimates for replacing the units. PECO was by far the best estimate. We were getting estimates on exactly the same units from each contractor. The units were high efficiency units, which will reduce our energy bill and lessen damage to the environment. PECO had access to rebates and discounts reducing the over all cost. They ordered both units and after they came in had them both installed in one day. We had blessed heat (and cooling) at a reasonable price. Their office staff was easy to work with. They get an A+ from me!!"

"and they had a technician come out, which confirmed it was their fault. We asked for a manager to call us. We have been completely unable to get any call back from any leadership. We have been told multiple dates in the supposed repair. As of today, it’s set to be two weeks of no AC for my pregnant wife. Worse yet, we have had to spend $2000 on portable AC/fans/dehumidifer. We initially simply asked for compensation towards the “repair” but couldn’t get any response. We have had damage to the drywall, windows, etc. as a result of the humidity. Waldrop literally blocked us on Facebook instead of responding to our issues."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit
