Whole Home Generator Installation in Sarasota, FL

Picture this. A storm hits Southwestern or Southeastern Florida. You’re relaxing in your home, when suddenly, you hear a loud bang as a transformer explodes. You casually turn on your microwave then begin watching your TV program, completely unfazed.

Power may have gone down in your neighborhood, but it hasn’t in your home. A whole-home generator just saved your evening.

Why a Whole Home Generator?

Whole home generators are more powerful than portable generators, enabling your home to run multiple functions during a power outage with no problem.

What Size Generator Should I Get?

First, you must think about the appliances you need running during a storm. You could get the most powerful generator and be covered, but you could also save money if you want to avoid using certain appliances. Consider your:

TV – Could you live without it? Is it a must to pass the time?
AC – It gets hot around here. Do you have pets, children?
Sump Pump – If there is extreme weather, your sump pump may be hard at work.
Refrigerator – This is usually not an option to prevent spoiled food.
Computer – Is it optional? Do you work from home?

Mister Sparky® of Sarasota can help you decide how much power your house needs to run the way you want it to and what size generator is appropriate.

Propane or Natural Gas?

If you have a natural gas line, a generator can be connected to it. You won’t have to change or store fuel this way. A Sarasota electrician can help assess if your current meter can handle it. However, natural gas may be unavailable in the event of a natural disaster, so to be extra safe you can choose propane.

Propane is a fuel source that you will have to keep stocked and be mindful of its flammable properties. Even though it is a little pricier, it has a long shelf life.

Ethan and his coworker Hunter from Mr. Sparky are excellent! They did a wonderful job installing our 300-pound chandelier. From putting up the scaffolding till the conclusion of chandelier installation, everything was done professionally. As highly satisfied customers, we recommend them without any reservation! You will be glad that you have chosen them.

I can not tell you how professional my technician that they sent was,, 'Vitality" called to say he be there in 30 minutes and was prompt, from the start to the time he finished the job he was very knowledgeable and explained everything that would need to be done and then proceeded to check on any other things that might need attention , a courtesy the company does at no charge. I had 4 ceiling fans installed and 2 wall sconce lights, they look amazing!!!, they came out the same day I called and completed the job in just over 3 hours !! I definitely will be calling no one but Sparky for ANY electric needs !!

- Toni Smith

This was an unexpectedly awesome and smooth process from start, to scheduling, to execution (not electrocution? ) and Joseph was fantastic. We had a few challenges with this cooktop retro fit from 220 electric to now 120vac with a propane connection. in cabinet drawer clearances and the 1992 electrical panel parts and modules were a short term problem. ALL overcome. They were a little higher priced than I expected (I was thinking $250 to $350 with parts - but almost $ 500 tax tag delivered...) but not horribly so bad and more important they came out as promised, when promised, and made my gas inspection, installation and down time for the cooktop within our (my wife's) schedule. So Venxxx Elecxxxx who did not return two emails/web forms from me and then when I finally called THEM they said it might be a month to do the job....... they made Mister Sparky my guys for electric from now on!!!! and I have a few more things in this new to me house.....including what will be about a $4 grand redo of the antiquated and a little bit now out of code main breaker box when I stuff in a pool and a wall oven/micro/warming drawer.

Obviously, with everyone recovering from a hurricane scheduling wasn’t as timely as I would have liked, but once they got here, got the ball going everything was great. All three techs that came here did a great job and were good at explaining things. Finally got power restored by FPL today so that is why I’m doing the review now because until now I obviously wasn’t in the best mood living without power for 10 days! I assume a separate review will be sent for the two techs who Did the physical work on the house? I see some reviews that say you’re overpriced, but I actually got one estimate that was even higher than Yours so I guess everything is cool
