"Very professional, quality work and quality materials. Continued to work during extremely cold weather and finished work within a reasonable time frame. Will give a follow up review in March when they come back to stain the steps once the pressure treated wood has dried out. They exceeded my expectation."

"I hired Canaan Electric to install my new tanning bed because the plug was different and I had no idea what to do. I scheduled the initial meeting and it went so smooth! I immediately asked he they could do it and set the job up with Preston. He was SO professional and answered all of my questions (I had a lotttttt of questions). So thankful and would have him back again for any work I need!"

"I live in an older home and my house panel was in desperate need of being replaced. Justin came out and gave me a very reasonable quote on replacing the panel and within a few days he came back and replaced it. He was very clean with the work he did and very respectful to me and my family. All around great service and will definitely use him again for any future electrical services i need done."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

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.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

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.
