What size generator do I need for my home?

The right size depends on how many appliances and systems you want powered during an outage. We evaluate your home’s electrical load and recommend a generator that fits your needs safely and efficiently. This ensures you have enough power without overspending on unnecessary capacity.

How long does generator installation take?

Most installations take one day, though coordinating fuel connections or panel upgrades may extend the timeline. We provide a clear schedule before work begins so you know exactly what to expect. This transparency helps you plan accordingly.

Do I need a permit to install a generator?

Yes, generator installations typically require permits and must meet local electrical and fuel code requirements. We handle all permitting and ensure your installation passes inspections. This ensures compliance and safety for your home.

How often does a standby generator need maintenance?

Most systems require maintenance once or twice a year. Routine service keeps your generator ready for storms and helps prevent unexpected failures. Regular checks ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Will a generator increase my home’s energy bill?

A generator does not impact your bill unless it’s actively running. Standby generators only use fuel and electricity during outages or scheduled self-tests. This means your costs are minimal when the generator is not in use.

I just had to replace my 44-year-old air conditioning unit. Friends recommended ARTIC Air. The technicians arrived slightly ahead of schedule, wore shoe covers to avoid tracking dirt into the house, and carried out the—not exactly simple—job with great diligence, expertise, and professionalism. Their extremely courteous and friendly demeanor was particularly noteworthy. Should I ever need further work done on my A/C, I would specifically like to be served by Rob and Drew again. Thank you for a job well done. Bernhard

Our technician today was Chris T. He did a fantastic job. Not only was he skilled and kept us in the loop the whole time, he was polite and pleasant. This was a checkup on a brand new HVAC that Artic installed about a month ago. On both occasions it was a pleasure to meet the techs and we saw what a great job they all did. In the future we will ask for Christ T. for sure!! We highly recommend Artic.

Update 3-13-26: Google reviews seem to be kinda bizarre - it keeps linking me back to my older ones rather than allowing me to write a new one. So I'll just update Last week Plumber Bill from Arctic Aire came to put in new water service lines and drain to a utility sink we needed in our wash room and connect our water supply to an outside hose line faucet along with a cutoff.He did a great job on both tasks. We have an older house so there are going to be lots of historical 'innovations' to the utility services. He had studied the area when he gave us our estimate for the job and came prepared for the install. When he was done the sink (stainless steel) was tested for leaks and smooth drainage worked well. As a bonus the sink was also much more sturdy. The outside faucet install was a little tricky to get new cutoff a junction to the supply line and routing the piping from the pump house to the faucet piping. He put it all together with the need to be able to drain the water from the lines during our mercifully brief winter freezes. Works great. So couldn't be happier with the work he did for us. Professional, courteous and worked with us during the planning stages. Update 9-16-25:: as you might guess with all these updates our home is an older one and had a number of issues when we bought it that we are now addressing. Alan and Stewart from Artic Air came to replace our a/c and air handler. The units we had had significant issues and were old enough to make doing repairs like slapping a bandaid over a serious wound. The removal of the old equipment and installation of the new went smoothly and efficiently. Both techs were very pleasant and competent, and we are very pleased with the results. We also had fiberglass insulation blown in over our existing attic batting to increase the R-level. Thank you Artic Air! My 5-star rating is unchanged. Updated 8-27-26: Steve Kiener a maintenance technician for attic air came to inspect our AC unit. He was very thorough in his examination of a 12 year old system and we had a very good conversation of his findings. Needless to say much needs to be done. He even found a small leak in a nearby gas line and made arrangements for the gas company to come out the same day! We are very satisfied with his visit and recommend him and the company highly. Richard D. And Brandon replaced the electrical panel in our house which was out-dated and had a number of ‘problems’. They were on time when they arrived and were done by five. The work done was done professionally and courteously. They did not hesitate in answering our questions or addressing our concerns. Richard was the person sent out initially to look at our system and it made the job flow better because of his prior visit. There are other things that need to be done in the next two days of the job but I have every confidence it will be done correctly and to our satisfaction.

The service that was provided for my HVAC system was the most thorough and comprehensive I have ever had. Having lived in Florida most of my life, I am quite familiar with the need for home A/C. The technician that serviced my system was the absolute best that I have experienced. Mike was very knowledgeable and professional, without a doubt the BEST maintenance service ever. Peter provided great service with my A/C system. Checking the outside and inside components. Arrived on time and was very efficient. Recommend him without hesitation!
