"I would absolutely not recommend Eco Electric Company. It took them nearly a month just to install a furnace — a job that should’ve been done in a few days. Their troubleshooting skills are seriously lacking, and I paid the price for it. Initially, they charged me $4,500 just to “level” the old furnace, claiming that would fix the issue. It didn’t. After wasting all that time and money, they came back and told me the furnace actually needed to be replaced — and asked for another $5,500 to do it. In total, I ended up paying $10,000 just to replace one furnace, all because they couldn’t properly diagnose the problem from the start. Completely unprofessional and frustrating experience. Stay far away."

"Went pretty well the electricians were really hard workers they were at it all day non-stop. My only issue is that one of the replacement receptacles isn't attached to the wall anymore. I just found it when I unplugged something the receptacle pulls out from the wall about an inch when you unplug something. I can't see how to attach it either with what is installed now so not sure how to fix it."

Specializing on bringing homes into the 21st century with almost a decade of experience in the industry. We offer services for a whole spectrum of power and lighting needs. Whether that be smart homes, ADU’s, workshops, panel upgrades, can lights, electric hot water heaters, ovens or if you’re trying to get rid of that pre - 60’s knob and tube wiring and everything in between we’ve got you covered. Our motto is to always leave a customers property better than we found it, while working with you to help your vision come to fruition.

"Originally Tanner was 5 STARS until he took $4,500 and didn't finish the job. I had to pay another electrician $3,000 to fix Tanners work and finish putting electricity. Tanner bid and quoted my electrical job for $6k. As with reputable professionals, he asked for 50% when he started the job, which was $3k. He asked for more money along the way which I wasn't comfortable with but gave it to him. After paying 4,500, I had no heat, no hot water, no lights, basically nothing but one outlet that he charged me an extra $300. He failed to put outlets in places that are normal for a house, he didn't provide a switch to turn on/off the hallway lights, and more. He texted me on the day he was to finish the job and has ghosted me since. DO NOT HIRE Tanner as he's not skilled and not trustworthy. Sad thing is that a close friend recommended him and Tanner took advantage of me, a single retired lady just trying to remodel a house. See you in small claims court. I will also file with the appropriate licensing agency so that others don't lose their money."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

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.

When installed and used correctly, generators are safe to use. The most critical generator safety tips to keep in mind are:

  • Never use a portable generator inside an enclosed space, as the carbon monoxide exhaust it creates is lethal.

  • Never attempt to connect your generator to your home’s electrical panel independently; hire a professional for this dangerous job.

  • Never overload your generator by connecting more appliances than for which it’s rated; you can damage your generator and appliances or even cause a fire.
