"I engaged McBride to install two ceiling fans at my house. The installer, Justin, did an excellent job on both and I'm very pleased with Justin and the work he did for me. For my next electrical project I will be calling McBride."

"Phoenix electrical is owned by Paul, a master electrician, who does the initial consultation to figure out a quote, he is very direct and honest but easy to talk to and work with. Their customer service is excellent, they kept me well informed throughout the process and were very friendly and accommodating. Pheonixs quote was fair without question, his crew had a tough job installing a generator transfer switch kit set up, I live in a house built in the late 80s, so, the electrical system is a bit older and they ran into issues but they worked non stop and persevered through the challenges, found solutions, and completed the job as promised. Without question, I recommend Phoenix Electrical, and I will certainly seek them out first for any future electrical work. Thank you."

"The security lights were replaced and covers installed for the outside electrical outlets . Also a pull chain light was replaced with a motion detected LED light in a closet. Garage lights were replaced with LED lights. Christopher and his associate have spent a lot of time coming back to adjust an outside security light. They are such professional electricians and will stand behind their work. . I recommend their services."

"A storm was going to hit on Saturday. My husband was looking for a generator to buy and I said it was time to install a solar battery system for our solar panels. I asked around and got multiple quotes. HartBeat LLC offered the only reasonable quote and to top it off, they got the install done right before the freeze in less than a day. I got quoted Thursday, the install was Friday morning and then the freeze came. The service was excellent. They even gave good pointers and advise on the use of the system and the market. Honest, trustworthy, reliable, reasonable pricing, fast and efficient service. Thank you HartBeat LLC"

"Ben worked on getting my house up to code, which included a service panel move/upgrade mainly plus all the things the inspector wanted. He made sure the work met the inspector expectations and was clear and concise on the scope of work, and costs. His communication, punctuality and attention to detail was top notch. Highly recommend."

"We had a less than ideal work environment but the electrician took care of our concern in a minimum amount of time, and was courteous and professional in spite of a misunderstanding over the time we thought he would arrive."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.

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.
