Commonly Asked Questions

What is the process of generator installation?

Generator installation involves several key steps. First, a licensed electrician will assess your home’s electrical needs and recommend an appropriate generator size. Then, they’ll obtain the necessary permits and prepare any service upgrades if required. Next, the generator will be connected to your home’s electrical panel, and the system will be tested to ensure functionality.

How long does generator installation take?

The duration of installation varies depending on the generator’s size, your electrical system’s complexity, and if any service upgrades are necessary. Typically, installation can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks.

What maintenance is required for a generator?

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your generator in optimal condition. This includes periodic inspections, oil and filter changes, spark plug replacements, and battery checks. It is recommended to have a professional generator service provider perform routine maintenance to ensure reliability.

Can a generator power my entire home?

The capacity of your generator will determine the number of appliances and systems it can support. Some generators can power an entire home, while others may only support essential circuits. Consulting with a licensed electrician is crucial to choosing the right generator size and any service upgrades for your specific needs.

Do I Need an Emergency Generator?

When an emergency strikes unexpectedly, it can be stressful, but by being prepared ahead of time, you can be ready for severe weather no matter when it happens.

Emergency generators provide these benefits:

Prevent food spoilage

You may have just bought groceries, only to waste hundreds of dollars after the blackout. A generator can keep your food safe through an outage.

Stop flood damage

Your basement houses a sump pump that needs power to keep water from flooding your home. Reliable backup power allows you to keep this pump running and minimize the damage you may experience.

Peace of mind

If you have young children or elderly family members, they may be more susceptible to extreme temperatures or need constant medical devices. Reduce the stress of emergencies with a generator that keeps you comfortable and powers critical medical devices.

Lighting & security

Safety is essential during an emergency, and looting is common when the power goes out. Let thieves know that you’re not vulnerable.

Prepare for emergencies and protect your family with expert generator installation and service upgrades from JMR Electric Group.

Standby vs. Portable Generators:

Which Is Better for Your Home?

Standby generators are already connected to your electrical system, so they start automatically when you lose power. This prevents you from spending minutes outside, in poor weather, trying to start a portable unit. These systems are also weatherproof even against severe weather for more reliable usage. Since standby generators are wired into your home’s system, they provide more power than portable generators. This allows you to power your entire home easily to stay comfortable, safe, and connected to important news.

Though standby generators are an excellent choice for emergency power, portable generators also have advantages. If you only have a few main power requirements like a fridge or AC, portable generators are cost-efficient compared to standby generators which are a more significant investment. They’re also quieter, so you don’t struggle to sleep in an already stressful situation. The most crucial advantage of standby generators is that they’re small and lightweight, so you can use them for more than just emergency power. Tailgating, special events, construction, and holiday displays can all be powered by a trustworthy portable generator.

By preparing your home with a generator, you can remain safe and secure, no matter the weather. Contact JMR Electric Group today to discuss which generator option best fits your needs, including service upgrades for enhanced reliability.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeff Rubino and his team at JMR provide exceptional and intelligent service. I have worked with JMR Electric for many years.  This year, they really went above and beyond.  My wife and I had a huge roof leak at our three family house in Somerville.  In the course of repairs, old knob and tube wiring was discovered.  JMR worked with us, the Insurance company and Inspectional services so that we could complete the project quickly. They were very easy to work with and their work came in under budget.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had electrical work done at my house and could not be happier with the experience. They were professional, on time, and explained everything in a way that actually made sense. The quality of the work was excellent and they clearly take pride in what they do. It’s hard to find contractors that are reliable, communicate well, and leave the place cleaner than they found it, but these guys did exactly that. Fair pricing, honest work, and no headaches. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for electrical work done right.
