"SeaTown installed a standby generator. They provided us with a wide range of options, and were very good about advising us of the ramifications and external costs associated with each. They coordinated permits, locates and utility requirements, making the process easy for us. The installers were courteous, respectful of our property, and did a fine job. We are now using them to install AC."

"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."

"Benjamin Skinner did an excellent job of converting our old push button garbage disposal to a new “light switch” type. He also switched the circuit breaker to be compliant with current code. He’s a very good electrician."

"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 The electrical throughout our house was outdated and he was also able to modernize it (GCFI, increasing amperages, fitting junction boxes, rewiring circuit panel, etc.).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"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

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.

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.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.
