"Hired Ryan to install a 30 Amp feed for a cooktop. After shopping around for cook tops, found it needed a 40 Amp feed. I contacted him with this update and also asked for a 30 AMP RV plug onn our outside wall. He had no problem in making the adjustment. His people showed up on time and proceeded to install the wiring from the electrical box to the kitchen. They then installed the outdoor box. The installers were pleasant to talk to and did not waste any time doing the install. They sealed all holes that had to be cut and cleaned up after themselves. Definitely would recommend Varsity Electric for anyone thinking about having electrical work done. Thank you Ryan. Add on. As we did not have the cook top on hand when they installed the circuit, they said to call them when it came in and they would install it. Also had to wait for the cutout to be enlarged. That happened today, so I call Varsity and they came out to finish the install. Technicians were conscientious and ensured we were happy with the work before they left. Again I would recommend this company. Would give them a higher rating, but the stars only go to 5. Again, Thanks Ryan and crew. Job well done."

"I needed an outlet added to the inside of our fireplace for the new gas fireplace fan. Jason showed up on time and got started on it even before the fireplace installation team showed up. He was courteous and gracious about having to wait. Once they arrived, he worked closely with the other team and did an excellent job on installing the outlet. I will definitely hire them again."

"They are my go to electricians. I have had others out in the past but stopped doing that once Varsity Electric completed our first of multiple electric projects. I have had them do light fixture replacements, troubleshooting and repairs, adding outdoor electrical and replace all outlet receptacles in the house and bringing them up to code. They have always been prompt, courteous, professional and knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to have electrical work done."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.
