"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!!"

"We are new to the Milwaukee area and have remodeled several rooms in our house. The first couple of projects were a nightmare because of contractors that were slow and did not do quality work. When we hired Marty, we were hesitant because of our recent experiences. To our relief, Marty was everything we had been looking for. He was extremely responsive from the moment we contacted him and did everything he said he would in the exact time frame promised. After our inspection, our inspector said to me "Matt, I'm glad that your luck has changed after that last couple projects. Keep using this electrician, he's a professional." On top of being extremely satisfied with every aspect of Marty and how he conducts business, his pricing was about 40% less than his competitors. He's a young entrepreneur that understands the importance of keeping his word and showed me that he will do everything he can to continue his stellar reputation in Milwaukee and ensure the success of his business. I will continue to use Marty for any electrical needs I have in the future. The larger overpriced electrical companies in Milwaukee better watch out, Marty is a formidable competitor that will understandably take a lot of their business and bring the much needed "value" that milwaukeans with electrical needs have been waiting for."

"They did a great job. Very efficient and had great communication. When something came up we were made aware of it and it was also taken care in a timely fashion. Dorow's team made sure that everything was completed and met the criteria. Once the work was completed they made sure we had all documents needed for the inspector and once the inspector did the inspection and if anything needed to be added Dorow's crew made came out and added the necessary components. Overall very satisfied with a job well done!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.
