"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."

"Ronnie, Pam, Cindy and crew were wonderful to work with.  There are several steps to the process, given potential permits needed and coordination of service dates with Center Point Energy.  They kept me informed and walked me through the process at each step. 
I got bids from three companies.  Storm Guardian's bid was the lowest and included the most features.  It included Mobile Link, which the other two did not even mention.  Being able to remotely monitor the generator and receive alerts on my IPhone and on-line when the generator turns on/off is great.  Almost as important to me, they came through on their promise of near turn key.  The other bids had me doing a lot of the leg work with Center Point.  With Storm Guardian, I only had to make two phone calls and be home half a day to authorize Center Point's replacement of the gas meter. 
I am very pleased with Storm Guardian and can recommend them without reservation.  Great work, great people.

"I rarely write reviews, but I am writing this review to express my utmost appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Mister Sparky during the challenging times of Hurricane Beryl. Their dedication to their customers is truly commendable. Jonatan P. surveyed and provided an estimated cost on the spot as well as wealth information about what to most cost-effective Interlock Switch to add to my circuit breaker. This happened the Friday before the hurricane and early next week in the mist of all the drop pour Mister Sparky team of two quick installed and provided a temporary cable from the circuit breaker to my portable generator. From the moment I reached out, their team was responsive, professional, and empathetic to the situation at hand. Despite the severe weather conditions, they were able to provide prompt and efficient service, ensuring our safety and comfort during a time of great need. Their technicians were not only skilled and knowledgeable, but also demonstrated a level of care and respect that was truly heartening to see. They took the time to explain the process, answer all our questions, and ensure we were comfortable with the solutions provided. Moreover, their commitment to following all safety protocols and guidelines was evident, providing us with peace of mind in an otherwise stressful situation. I cannot recommend Mister Sparky highly enough. Their exceptional service during Hurricane Beryl was a testament to their professionalism, customer-centric approach, and resilience. Thank you, Meghan, Jonatan, and Kevin, for going above and beyond!"

"Donnie was a pleasure to work with on the phone. After describing what was required to install a Ring Floodlight, Donnie was able to provide a quote and time limit to perform the installation including some custom wiring. Jeff did the installation in the time frame quoted and the price was more reasonable than all other quotes received. I highly recommend them!"

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.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

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.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

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.
