"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

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.

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.

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.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.
