"The process went smoothly from beginning to finish. Jeremy gave me several options for a sub-panel and once selected/scheduled the work was done in just a few hours. This installation was tricky in that our primary panel was fully utilized, but Jeremy was able to replace and combine two circuits using a newer breaker, making the circuit possible to our new sub-panel. Jeremy is detail oriented, answering questions and holding to his word. Post install, the panel looks like it was always there, and the wiring is nicely tucked inside walls/ceiling."

"We hired GoBright to replace an old ceiling fan and locate and install a new fan in a second location. They were professional, very communicative, and paid attention to details!"

"The team arrived as scheduled. Alex & Tyler worked well as a team. They installed ceiling fans which we had purchased ahead of time. They had to put in fan boxes for all 3. Also we had to replace 2 bathroom fans. They supplied one of those. Lastly we needed outlets on our porch. They were able to get all this done in about half a day. We were super impressed with the ease of setting up the assessment, scheduling the work and completion of the job. The prices fit our budget. We were not pressured into additional work. In the future we are planning more upgrades around our place and we will be calling Mr Electric again. Than you Alex & Tyler for doing such a great job."

"I can't say enough good things about this contractor. I've used the other main electrical contractor in Spokane and I was not happy and I was overcharged. This business was wonderful and reasonable. They were also very fast and coming out and giving an estimate to the work I needed done. There was no charge for the estimate. They work with my schedule in arranging a time to come out and do the work which was pretty involved. The price was reasonable. I live in an old house I was having a new stove and Hood put in and needed new special circuit breakers and outlets and they install the hood lots of stuff. Brian and Darrin came out. They were such a nice young men. Very pleasant and professional. They cleaned up everything very considerate and polite. I would definitely use this company again and highly recommend them"

"Thomas at Thunderbird Power is fantastic. He KNOWS his trade (a 3rd generation electrician)! Had 2 electricians last year try to fix some broken outlets, after 1.5 hours couldn't figure it out. Another electrician troubleshot it recently and his diagnostic tests ended up NOT being the issue. Thomas had them fixed in 30 minutes and didn't have separate charges for troubleshooting ontop of fixing, just took care of it. He was WAY cheaper than all the other electricians who quoted me in the area for that and replacing all our light fixtures + fixing other issues; I spoke to 6 different electrians in depth about our projects (8 including previous guys). He was the ONLY electrician who did not make a big deal about fans, nor talked small projects into huge ones and needing a second person to help him with all the work, etc. But he did the work in the same amount of time, alone. He was very professional, timely, detail-oriented, neat, and personable (dogs ADORED him). Will hire again!!!"

"AP&L is very professional, knowledgeable, clean, and met the requirements of our build schedule. We built a 3800 sq ft contemporary home with back up generator. Very knowledgeable and assisted with lighting design and low volt controls for window treatments and security. Pricing was competitive and crew was onsite as scheduled with all materials need to complete the project. Highly recommended!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

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

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

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

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

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

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.
