"Had a chance to utilize ICT services this past week. Michael Hurkmans is wonderful. Very knowledgeable and the job was done well. Have no qualms about recommending services. Office staff was also very helpful. Checked wiring and replaced a burnt switch caused by electric car overload and reoutfitted an sodium vapor yard light with marine cover plates for outlets and a LED bulb, which draws far less current than the sodium vapor. Very happy."

"Frasiers sent Cody to complete the requested plumbing work. Cody arrived on time and completed the work in a timely manner. We had Cody return to replace shutoff valves to other plumbing as well.

Master Electrician specializing in Residential, Commercial, and Service work. Growing up on a farm in Deerbrook, WI, I always had a passion for the outdoors and was raised to know the value of hard work. It wasn't until halfway through college that I realized my passion for entrepreneurship and working with my hands. Electrical seamed like the perfect fit for me. I've grown to love the endless pursuit of knowledge in the electrical field and being able to help customers achive their visions.

"Went well very professional Luke and his helper were very friendly and got the job done in a short time"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

As long as your generator is used as recommended by the manufacturer, it’s safe to use for auxiliary power. Make sure that fuel powered generators are used outdoors and that the fumes dissipate away from your home. A professional generator installer will ensure your generator’s placement and set-up meets safety standards when installing or repairing your back-up power source.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

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.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more.
