"I have nothing but praise for One Hour! I value greatly the quality of the services and products this company promotes, provides, and utilizes, and also know firsthand the depth of their honesty and integrity! Being a life-long asthmatic and allergy suffer, my home always needs to be a haven of healthy breathing for me, so I was relieved to know that One Hour had real and effective solutions to my problems. I suspected mold issues in our home, in addition to the obvious high volume of dust accumulation since my asthma was becoming persistent and out-of-control. I was experiencing regular asthma attacks and was beginning to feel quite desperate. So, besides taking my medication, I reached out to One Hour so they could evaluate the quality of my home air, and to make sure everything was OK. However, things were not fine. But things did begin to improve upon the installation of two of their products, the MicroPower Guard and OxyQuantum UV lights. If fact, recently I just changed out the filter (since it was time to do so), and was amazed to see the amount of dust collected on it which is a great thing! I certainly don't want to breathe that in my lungs. Also, I have noticed less dust accumulation around my home, and it also takes longer to build up too. So, I truly believe these products are working effectively and efficiently (as they need to be), and also find peace of mind knowing that the UV lights are killing the mold spores around-the-clock and preventing them from growing back! I am also glad to report that my asthma and allergies are much more under control, and it feels wonderful to breathe more normally, and without persistent fear of wondering when my next asthma attack will occur. Cheers to One Hour! Will L."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

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

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.

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.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.
