Let’s face it, we have chosen to live in a place that is susceptible to ice storms, blizzards, hurricanes, flooding, and pretty much whatever Mother Nature can throw at us! A standby generator can be the answer to some of life’s little problems like these.

Think about this scenario: You and your family are home on a snowy night in the winter. The television is on, and everyone is gathered in the living room. Suddenly there is a noise like a crack, and a tree in the distance loses its branch and takes down an electrical line. The power to your home and your neighbor’s homes goes out. If you had a standby generator at this moment, you would simply wait less than 30 seconds and your entire home power would be restored by your trusty automatic standby generator. These machines are incredibly powerful and reliable.

At Mel Carr Electric, we can install a NEW automatic residential standby generator at your home at a reasonable price and with professionalism and expertise! We also offer a great options for portable standby generators as well. Call today for a free quote to add this level of protection to your home!

At Mel Carr Electric, we are experts at wiring above-ground pools, in-ground pools, and hot tubs for use at your home! We have been safely installing wiring for pools and hot tubs for over 35 years, and we are experts at the newest and most up-to-date code requirements for these installations. If this is your first swimming pool, it is important to know that safety is our number one priority around any pool or hot tub. As of January 2001, New York State has adopted the 2008 National Electrical Code, which came with extensive changes to the requirements of swimming pool electrical installations. Many pool companies are not even aware of some of these changes yet. If you are in the process of buying or installing a new pool, please give us a call or send us a message so that we can help educate you of these changes, and give you a free, up-front written quote for the installation of that wiring. A safely installed pool can be a wonderful addition to your home and a great way to stay cool and relaxed this summer!
