Generator Services
It’s never easy to deal with a power outage. Unless, that is, you have a functioning generator. Portable and whole-house generators keep the lights, air conditioning and fridge running (among other appliances and electrical devices), so you can keep living a normal life in the event of a weather event or downed power line.
Whether you already have a generator that’s in need of maintenance or you’re interested in installing a new one, Henninger Electric is here to help. We offer generator repair and installation in Waterloo at a reasonable cost. We specialize in installing whole-house standby generators from Cummins, an industry leader in generator production.

Lighting Installation Services
Henninger Electric performs outstanding lighting installation services for interior and exterior spaces. We install LED lighting and fixtures, outdoor lighting, security lighting and more for residential and commercial properties. Nothing improves an outdoor living space more than strategically placed deck or landscape lighting.
While you may be tempted to install lights on your own, it’s essential to work with an experienced electrician in Waterloo, IA to ensure your new lighting is properly wired. In particular, outdoor lighting and landscape lighting must be up to code and appropriately weatherproofed to handle the Iowa rain and snow, depending on the season. Our licensed and insured electricians know how to comply with local codes and restrictions. Plus, we promise safe, effective lighting installations every time. If the thought of wiring a new lighting fixture yourself is intimidating, give the experts at Henninger Electric a call.

EV Charger Installation
An EV charger installation in Waterloo immediately increases the value of your home or commercial property. It’s an incredibly smart investment in the future to jump on the electric vehicle bandwagon now. At Henninger Electric, we pride ourselves on keeping up with innovative technologies, and EV chargers are solidly in our wheelhouse.
To prepare for an EV charger installation, you will want to follow these steps:
- Choose the EV charger that makes sense for you. Consider exactly how fast you need to charge your car each day and what you would like the output of your charger to be. There may be additional options for commercial properties as well.
- Ensure your current electrical system can handle the addition of a new EV charger. You’ll need to look at your current consumption. If you are unsure about this, consult the friendly electricians at Henninger Electric.
- Determine where you’d like to put the EV charger. An electrician in Waterloo will likely be able to advise where it makes sense to place it based on your current wiring and connections, but it’s still important to go in with a sense of your own desires.
- Call a trusted local electrician and schedule service. Henninger Electric has operated in the Cedar Valley since 1995, so you can trust us for reliable and reasonably priced EV charger installation in Waterloo.
- Finally, clean out your garage before an electrician arrives at your house. We won’t be able to install an EV charger if the space is so cluttered we can’t safely access it.
Surge Protection
Prepare your home or business in case of power surges. Power surges can be frequent in the summer in Waterloo, IA, especially during years with a higher incidence of thunderstorms. A surge protector absorbs the extra voltage from a power surge and diverts it safely into the ground. Surge protection is absolutely critical to keep your electronic devices safe and improve the longevity of your home’s electrical system.
The Waterloo electricians at Henninger Electric are happy to consult with you about which kinds of surge protection are best suited for your property. A home will have different surge protection needs from a commercial property. Complex and sensitive electrical equipment will be particularly vulnerable to damage from power surges. Computers, home entertainment systems and microwaves may be more susceptible because they contain microprocessors, which may be disrupted by a surge as small as 10 volts. Whole-house surge protection will keep all of your devices and appliances safe, so you can rest easy in the case of a power surge.
