"Date: March, 2016. Estimate: $300-$500. Actual Cost: $665. Work performed: Installed 2 light fixtures in garage, removed, purchased, installed the outside door fixture, completely checked the circuit breaker box for dishwasher issue & changed out circuit breakers to help narrow down the dishwasher issue. Heck, they even checked my battery operated drill to help me figure out if the problem was the charger or batter(s). Prepared for the $500 charge, but when the final bill came in, I paid it - gladly. Why? Because this company did not take advantage of me. I may have been behind the actual final cost for the hourly pay/benefit scale for a electrician and helper; but, I was pretty close when I finally figured in one electrician & one helper. The guys were here for 3/4 of the work day (minus lunch break) and they were thoughtful, careful, and really addressed any and all of my electrical concerns. And, to boot, both handled my big dogs wonderfully. I can honestly say, after building one house in Midland County & remodeling my current home in the city, Unity Electric is probably the only contractor or subcontractor I would not have taken to court - and I did win. I wish there were more reliable and honest contracts for home repair as this company."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

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. 

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.
