"Seatown is a well-oiled machine! From the start (estimate of costs) to the final installation and safety checks I knew I picked the right company to do my generator project. All employees that were involved were knowledgeable and answered all my questions thoroughly and in a way that made sense to me. I plan to use this company again."

The installation team was very professional, on time and and left the place spotless upon completion of the project. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Thank you again for making this project such a pleasant experience!"

"Impressed with the level of detail for the finish work and the creative solutions for bringing up previous shoddy DIY work to code. Was able to perform a wide variety of tasks, including: hanging ceiling drywall, rewiring electric, bolstering ceiling supports, and LOTS more. Everything turned out great for the extensive remodel of 1000+ square footage of rooms and freshened up our space while ensuring stability and safety. The electrical throughout our house was outdated and he was also able to modernize it (GCFI, increasing amperages, fitting junction boxes, rewiring circuit panel, etc.). Our family feels much safer now. A breath of fresh air considering our own personal past experiences with hiring tradesmen, Aaron was very personable and honest. We were really overwhelmed with the scope of the project and what would be required, but he walked us through each of the steps for what would be required and explained what would be needed to bring it up to code. Aaron was receptive to our ideas for the remodel and was able to do everything we asked of him for it. Highly recommended. ð"

Customers say: Quality work

"we recently moved into this older manufactured home and wanted to make sure the electric issues were up to code. All was well until they found a loose wire in a light fixture. A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD! It was easily fixed but we were so grateful we had them come in and check everything! Andy and Chris were very friendly and professional. Bill, the owner, was helpful and answered all questions. We would highly recommend this company!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

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.
