"From the estimate with Tyler, to install, through follow up support, SeaTown was exceptional. They were not the cheapest, but Tyler took the time to understand our needs and answer all of our questions. Way more knowledgeable and friendly then the other two quotes we got. Tyler made it an easy choice to go with SeaTown."

"Needed to run 40 Amps to an outdoor heat pump. Made the appointment last minute, they showed up the day the heat pump was being put in. Figured out I could reorg my panel instead of add amps. Did the work immediately. Ran the outlet and charged me $1700 less than my other quote. I highly recommend the juice company."

"Jeremie and his companion did a very professional job, fixing the immediate problem, and giving us a verbal estimate of what he felt needed to be done to upgrade the basement circuits. His written estimate is to follow within a week or two. We were quite satisfied with his work."

"Nick went above and beyond to install my home car charger. He had to get through concrete in my crawlspace and installed the charger on the wall which I did not expect him to complete. The price was reasonable when compared to two other estimates. I would highly recommend First Choice."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

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

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

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

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

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.
