Heat pumps and wiring are the two jobs that run through Rousseau Electric LLC's work. The company's website says it was established in 2001 as a residential and commercial electrical, HVAC and standby generator company, and that it specializes in Mitsubishi and Fujitsu heat pumps and Generac/Honeywell standby generators. Shane J. Rousseau holds a Maine electrician license, number MS60020555, that is active on the state registry. Rousseau Electric holds an A+ grade from the Better Business Bureau and 4.8 stars on Google from 26 ratings. A recent customer said Shane and his team helped install an AC unit in their cottage, and that the estimate came fast because they needed it put in quickly. A recent customer said the company installed their generator and mini splits and recently came up to give a consult and clear an error code. A recent customer said Shane walked them through the best option for their home and made sure they received all of the rebates they qualified for. A recent customer said Shane and his crew take the time to install the units level on proper bases, and that Shane goes over the operation of the units. A recent customer with a complicated project said Rousseau Electric also installed heat pumps for them and reviewed the projects so they understood what needed to be done. In a 2024 review, a customer said Shane and his team converted an existing room to accommodate a refrigerator, an electric range and a microwave, including the electrical and wall outlets. A 2024 customer said Shane installed their heat pumps, worked with them on where to place the inside units, and that the price was very fair. A 2023 customer said Shane and team installed a Fujitsu heat pump, working during bad weather to install it on time and leaving the area cleaner than they found it. A 2022 customer changing their heating to heat pumps said Shane's proposal was the most clear and straightforward of the 5 estimates they got, and that the Fujitsu units now give even heat throughout their 1860 home. A 2022 customer said Rousseau Electric installed two Fujitsu mini split systems after coming in with the lowest of three bids, and that on Shane's recommendation they added surge protectors on the units and a whole home surge protector. In a 2021 review, a customer said Shane did a clean install for their service upgrade and sub panel and was knowledgeable in the latest code.
We had a complicated project. Rousseau Electric was thorough, safe, timely, and extremely knowledgeable about building codes, fixtures, etc. We also had them install heat pumps, which I love. Rousseau's installation was professional and precise. They reviewed the projects so that I understood what needed to be done, why, and the best way to accomplish our goals. They are fully licensed, insured, and follow all local building rules. I'm extremely happy to have found an electrician who can handle anything and get it done!
These guys are wonderful they installed the generator and mini splits at our house and recently came up to give a consult and clear and error code as well as helpful tips on maintenance, very grateful and I would recommend
Shane and his crew are very professional in every way. They were very careful of my property. They take the tine to install the units leve and install proper bases. Shane also takes the time to go over the operation of the units. I've never had a problem with Rousseau Electric.
Working with Shane at Rousseau Electric was an easy and pleasant experience from start to finish. He took the time to walk us through the best option for our home, explained everything clearly, and made sure we received all of the rebates we qualified for. The entire process felt effortless, and everything went smoothly. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and will absolutely be using Rousseau Electric again for any future electrical or heat pump needs. Highly recommend!
Shane and his team at Rousseau helped install an AC unit in my cottage and I couldn’t ask for a better outcome. He was thorough, on time and efficient in his work. The estimation process was fast because I needed it put in quickly before using it. His communication is top notch. Highly recommended for your electric needs
