"Fenix Electric went beyond expectations to hang a flood light camera, replace an outdoor ceiling fan, clear an issue with a gfci circuit, and install automatic light switches for three outdoor lights. His crew was courteous and professional. The work was done expeditiously. His pricing was very reasonable. I recommend Fenix Electric highly!"

"I would still like to hire CP, Hill, Davis or Circle S. but I don't know what to do from here. I would give them a better score If I could see their work on my home. I only marked ( would not hire them ) because there is no in-between. I have been trying to get some one to install a Transfer Switch for my new generator, I called ( Hill ) with no response then Home Advisor gave them my number and still no response. I called ( CP Electric ) with no response then Home Advisor suggested them And gave me their number. So what's the point of me calling them again. I first hire another Electrician (Circle S) he came out and gave me a bid but never showed up to do the job. I then called him three times and he never called back. I then called a fourth electrician (Davis Electric) 2 times and he never called back. This might be considered a small job but I think they should at least call you back and tell you that they can't do it for what ever reason. That's called doing good business. No disrespect to any of these businesses I'm just getting pretty frustrated trying to get something done. This is the same thing that happened when I tried to hire a roofer with Home Advisor , I still have a bad roof jack that is probably leaking water into my rafters causing damage. I have cash money and no one wants it. Is this Texas wide or just a Gilmer Problem. Never had these issue where I used to live. Home Advisor does not work at least not here."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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. 

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.
