Jenna Marshall
Did an amazing job! All the workers were so nice an amazing and harry was very amazing too! The generator and the panels that they installed was very easy and looks really clean and nice. An amazing job and would highly recommend them for anyone who is looking for a generator!
Cindy Angel
Harry and his workers did a fantastic job. They were good about cleaning up. I like the way they offer so many different services. I had them put in fans, lights and a 220v for my electric cars.
Everyone I worked with was kind and considerate.
I would definitely recommend them and I already have.
Our next job will be to add more solar panels. Harry and American Electric is the company I will definitely call.
Thanks for all your hard and prompt installations Harry.
Steve Johnson
Harry came out and gave me an estimate and it was much more affordable than I expected. We bought a natural gas Generic 26W whole house generator. When the crew showed up, it was clean that they were experts in this field. They did a great job. Everything was done so neatly and when they left everything was clean. The crew was very friendly and it was clear that they all worked well with each other. I HIGHLY recommend American Electric. With all of the stress on the power grid, I think having a whole house generator is really important. I would encourage you to call them and explore the advantages.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does American Electric Co take to install a standby generator?
Most residential installations take one to two days on-site; permitting typically adds five to ten business days before installation can begin.
Can American Electric Co service a standby generator installed by another company?
Yes. It services generators installed by other companies as well as its own installations.
Does American Electric Co always need to upgrade a panel for a generator installation?
Not always. If the existing panel has adequate capacity and condition, the generator connects through a transfer switch without a panel upgrade.
How long is power off during an American Electric Co main panel upgrade?
For a standard residential 200A upgrade, the power interruption is four to six hours; it coordinates the utility meter pull in advance.
