"Fast response, competitive, with a reasonable schedule. Very impressed with how quick Derrik and team installed our generator hookup, from submitting the project in the Angi app to completion, such an easy process! Now we’re all set for winter. He even took the time to test run the generator and answered all the questions. Highly recommend! Thanks CAS Pro Service!"

"Wow!! For the last two years we’ve been dealing with an electrical issue that two different companies and a retired electrician couldn’t manage to understand. Dan from Liberty Power recognized that we were frustrated and desperately seeking a solution to our issue. He was professional, thoughtful and very focused on finding a solution. When the first couple of attempts at repair failed to produce a positive outcome, he continued to work until he found a solution and the lights came on. We are thrilled with his expertise, his positive attitude and of course, his ability to solve our issue. Great company!!! Great guy!! Great service!!"

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. 

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
