"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!"

"40 X 32ft shop. 27 conduit drops to include two 220 drops for Welder and Mini Split Technicians were very courteous, knowledgeable and professional. They answered all my questions thoroughly. After the install, they briefed on the electrical panel. Organized to perfection. I would not hesitate to hire this business again. Highly recommended. Thanks again to Mike and Chadwick, you made the experience positive. Brandon"

"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."

"The owner, Dave Fisher, recently installed a Home Guardian Backup Generator for my home. He did a great job of helping design a system that meets my needs. The installation works perfectly and looks great. Electrical and Lift Services did an A+ job of resolving all issues associated with the install. I highly recommend this dealer for a professional generator install."

"I never ever, ever write reviews but I certainly shall today. I had Fenix install the necessary wiring for my home to safely and effectively receive the energy transfer from my portable gasoline generator. This is a project far removed from my comfort level and as such has impeded my pulling the trigger on resolving the major inconveniences of multiple power outages in my area. Fenix thoroughly explained all necessary actions prior to conducting same. After discussing and advising me regarding my desired project goals, Fenix accomplished the work in a timely and efficient manner. Fenix even wrote down the sequence of steps for me to follow when I next lose utility power. All this AND their estimate previously provided was what I paid. No surprises! Oh, and did I mention I received 10% off as a new customer? Fenix is without hesitation my contact for any future home electrical projects. My only regret is that I did not call Fenix sooner. Thank you for your time in reading my review. God bless."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.
