"Mister Sparky missed their scheduled time one day and I thought about canceling them. They called me that evening and rescheduled with a $325 credit. WOW!! They sent out Andrew and he represented his company extremely well. He was polite, professional and it was easy to talk to him while he worked. After all was said and done, the project came in under the credit amount, so I got my two ceiling fans installed "FOR FREE".. You can't beat Mister Sparky!! They now are on my speed dial for any electrical projects I will have in the future. Thanks you"

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.
Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.
It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:
Portable generator:
2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers.
4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.
8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.
Partial to whole-house generator:
20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
