"Max was excellent to deal with and very flexible. The work required replacement of four flourescent lights, an outdoor spot light and dealing with several electrical outlets. The cost of the work was reasonable and Max completed the work in a minimum amount of time. Great job!"

"The ac coil ( defective part) was still under warranty, but the labor to replace it was not. The service man was here for 4 l/2 hours (he could have used another technician to help him). The first problem was that he was giving the wrong part for my ac unit, so he had to take the part back to Harker and retrieve the correct part (took about 40 minutes). It was a cool day, so it was difficult to properly test the unit after the installation. The technician said it would be necessary to return on a warm day to properly test it. To date, that has not happened, and we have had temperatures in the 90's for a week now. When finally finished, the bill was $657. And this is after an initial "spring tune up" (two weeks prior) that cost $262. Outrageous! I didn't get a paper copy as the technician figured the bill on his computer. I wrote the company and asked for a paper copy, and got one, but again, nothing was detailed, and it just said the bill was $657."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.

If one plug in your outlet works but the other doesn't, it could be due to a few reasons. The outlet might have a loose or damaged internal connection on the non-working side. Another possibility is that the outlet is a split receptacle, with one half controlled by a wall switch that might be turned off. Additionally, debris or damage inside the non-working plug could prevent a proper connection. If you can't identify the issue, remember to prioritize safety. Replace the outlet or consult a professional electrician to ensure safety and proper functionality.

The Biden Administration banned the sale of incandescent light bulbs for general service lamps in 2023. All household light bulbs must meet a minimum efficiency of 45 lumens per watt, three times that of a standard incandescent light bulb. 

The main motivation was to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. It is expected that banning incandescent light bulbs will cut over 200 million metric tons of carbon emissions over the next 30 years. Some bulbs are exempt, like chandelier lights and Christmas lights.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

While you might not need to put lights and outlets on separate circuits, some local codes may require that you use separate circuits. Installing a separate circuit helps prevent total darkness in your home when your receptacle outlets take on too much power and blow a fuse or trip the breaker. It also costs less and is easier to simply install a new circuit.
