Est 1989 after hour emergency service available also Saturday and Sunday accept credit cards

"Awesome! The people were courteous, respectful, gave detailed information about what needed to be done and kept to the estimated cost. The initial response to my first contact came within 30 minutes. Mr. Hurley was on the property about thirty or thirty-five minutes later. He scheduled the work for the next morning, after giving me the estimate and waiting for my approval to go ahead. The damage had been caused by a tornado-we live in a double-wide. He looked into requirements for permits and inspections, which were waved due to the nature of our situation. He also contacted the power company to give them an estimate as to when he would be done; he contacted them again upon completion of the work, and, about four hours later we had power. The tornado hit on Monday, during my wife's 72nd birthday party. Other companies I contacted said they could not get to me until the middle of next week. I contacted Mr. Hurley Wednesday and Thursday afternoon the job was done and we had power. Mr, Hurley explained to me that when they heard about situations like ours, they worked the job in as soon as they possibly could as they considered our situation an emergency. We were exceptionally pleased with this company and its employees."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

When properly maintained, natural gas generators can last a long time, as much as 20 to 40 years. They have relatively few needs compared to generators with other fuel types. However, the generator’s lifespan ultimately depends on how often the generator is used and for how long it’s left running.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.
