"I cannot say enough great things about Jamie and the team at Wisconsin Generators LLC. From the very first conversation, Jamie was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to walk me through all my options, answered every question thoroughly, and made sure I felt confident in the decision we were making. The installation process was seamless. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and treated our property with respect. Their attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right was obvious from start to finish. Everything was clean, organized, and completed exactly as promised. What really sets Jamie apart is his integrity and customer-first approach. There was no pressure just honest recommendations and clear communication. If you’re considering a standby generator, I highly recommend Jamie and Wisconsin Generators LLC. Reliable service, expert installation, and true peace of mind. Five stars all The way!!"

"Needed to hook up my portable generator to the house. Mr Sparky was the first to call from angi so I asked for a quote. They came over very quickly and gave my wife and I a very good quote we thought. We didn't even get another, Slept on it, they called back the next day and we set set up a date. Mario showed up (very nice guy) . Said it would be a couple hours, and it was. They didn't need to turn off the whole house which was good and wired in a new electrical panel and plug on the outside. We tested it, and it worked perfectly. We are very happy. Thanks guys....!"

"Jim was very fast at coming to evaluate what we all needed to have done. He did a great job and cleaned up after he was finished. While he was here we had an issue come up for another electrical problem and he ordered the part and came back as soon as he got the part. Will definitely hire him again when we need electrical work."

"All of their technicians were very professional and polite and helped me understand what was going on every step of the way, from the initial inspection, diagnosing the issue, deciding on a new furnace, and through the installation process. When the inspection showed that my furnace was no longer working, they even shuffled some appointments around to make sure I had working heat before it started getting too cold outside. Not only did they do a great job installing the new furnace and AC, they went out of their way to clean up the basement and duct work a bit and left things looking even better than when they got there! Mike was my technician for the initial inspection and Austin worked on the Furnace and AC install. There were a couple other techs with them as well who's names I didn't quite catch, but all of them were great!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

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.

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.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.
