"GenPro installed a Home Generator for us. Andrew Spitzmueller and his team were dependable and reliable. Did what they said they would do. When they encountered roadblocks with sub-contractors and permit inspectors, they worked diligently to resolve the situation. They are honest and trustworthy people. Highly recommend them."

"A1 Plus Electrical had the best price, and the electricians and plumber did excellent work! The only problem experienced was that it took 5 to 6 weeks for A1 Plus to get the permits approved after stating that they could get the permits approved and install the generator within 2 weeks. All other companies couldn't do the work for at least 2 months or longer! I had to contact A1 Plus general manager to get things moving after several permit submissions were rejected by the city. A1 Plus mitigated this time inconvenience by installing an electrical outlet in the garage at no cost, and once the permits were approved, everything was done within 7 days. Permits were approved on Friday, and installation started on the following Tuesday, and city permit inspections were done on the following Friday! All within one week! Would I hire A1 Plus to install my generator in the future? YES!"

"Full turnkey installation of a Generac 17KW standby generator to wire my whole house for back up power was performed and the whole process was excellent. 

Very easy process once decision to purchase was made, I initially received an estimate one year prior to performing the work.  I had many questions and they gladly answered and provided me with as much information as possible.  When I contacted for new proposal the following summer in 2010 they rebid the job for a whole house install and a limited install, and due to upgrade from manufacturer using an improved transfer switch, my cost for whole house install was only marginally more than the estimate in 2009 for a limited installation so I chose the whole house option.

The entire process was very easy once I signed the bid.  Took about 2 weeks for the generator to come in, during that time they came to my home without me there and set the pad for the generator.  Once the generator arrived they set an install date and the process took about 1 week.  Generator was delivered, gas lines wire installed, electrical transfer switch and all other wiring and install necessary.  The work was done as scheduled and completed on time. 

I met the technician at the agreed upon time when installation was complete and they reviewed the operations of the generator with me.  He explained and demonstrated how it operates and showed me how it would work in event power was lost.  It is automatic and there is nothing for me to do in the event of a power outage or to run a maintenance check.  The generator is set to run a test cycle for about 5 minutes once a week and has warning lights that will notify me of any problems or let me know know if battery is dead or needs charging.

Overall we are very pleased with the installation, cost, and service from Storm Guardian Generators.  We have had one 5 hour power outage since the installation, I was at the store when power went out and the generator started automatically and restored power before my wife could find a flash light and go check on the generator.  Power surged and went on and off a few times as it was brought back online by electric company and my generator restarted without fail within a minute of losing power each time.wiring"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

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.
