Why Elmhurst Homeowners Add Generators
After storms like 2013, many Elmhurst homeowners want a generator that starts on its own when the power goes out, keeping the sump pump, furnace and refrigerator running. A natural gas generator needs a line sized for its load plus everything already in the house. We size and run the line and pressure-test it. A licensed electrician installs the transfer switch.
How We Plan the Route for a New Gas Line
We start at the meter and follow the existing pipe to find the best place to branch off. Then we plan a route through the basement or crawl space that's easy to support and service. For outdoor lines, we decide between running along the house or underground. A shorter, simpler route usually means a lower price and a faster install.

Based on the text exchange, it seemed the appointment was confirmed. [...]"

Jacob was knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to clearly explain the issue and our options with pricing ranges. We never felt rushed or pressured. [...]"
