"I had a 240 box I provided installed not a charging station. 2.5 hours work /$100 in tubing and cable and it did not get installed as I asked. Charged me $880. I have looked around for actual charging station installs and they were $500-$800 for the actual station install. Look around before you hire and make yourself clear as to what you want and how much time they will spend."

"Part of the instilling of the generator is done. I had to call 2 weeks later to see when they would finish. I was told they were waiting for a part and would contact me when they received it. One more week later and no contact about the status of my installation. Customer contact about what is happening with my order has been extremely poor! I guess I will have to call them - AGAIN!"

"I would give these guys at least 6+ stars if possible. I connected with Tor Electric through Home Advisor. They installed multiple switches, a Nest outdoor camera, and an outdoor outlet. The last 2 we're at my roofline, requiring Tor to crawl through my attic. Tor & Cam did such a great job! They didn't leave until the camera was adjusted correctly and I was completely satisfied with their full installation. They were very helpful, professional, and unlike most electricians I have dealt with before. I asked them to replace a 3-way switch with one I handed them. As it turns out, the switches did NOT need replacing. Most electricians I've dealt with before, would replace them anyway and come back and say it's done, because that's what I asked for. Cam came back and said replacement was not needed and explained. Saved me $ and time. So, a big THANK YOU!! Absolutely recommend this company. I'm about to have some appliances replaced. They said they can do it. I won't even consider any one else!"

"Cubix Power did a great job helping me run some wire for our game room. We wanted some extra power for our gaming PCs and Ethernet cables ran so we could be directly plugged into our fiber service. Insanely clean job, priced very good and fast! I’ll be hiring them for our basement when we finish it in the future. Thank you guys!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator.
