  • Knowing what power surges are is the first step toward protecting your high-value devices. Power surges, characterized by a sudden voltage spike above the normal 120 volts, can cause the wiring within your devices to overheat and potentially burn. In our tech-forward world, numerous devices are at risk, including computers, televisions, phones, stereos, and microwaves. Devices with sensitive microchips or circuitry are at a heightened risk of power surge demand. The ultimate defense against this power surge damage is comprehensive home surge protection. Even a minor power surge can strain your devices, reduce their performance, and damage them beyond repair.

  • Signs of a power surge include flickering lights, burnt electronics, tripped circuit breakers, and a lingering burning smell. Investing in a whole house surge protector is vital to safeguarding your valuable electronic devices from potential damage. Our service professionals can inspect your electrical components to determine if you've experienced damaging power surges.

Triggers of Power Surges

Understanding what triggers power surges is important. A common cause of power surges is the routine functioning of heavy-duty household appliances. Appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, and clothes dryers, which require substantial electricity, can disrupt the smooth flow of voltage. Tripped breakers in your home can contribute to power surges. Though rare, lightning strikes can also cause power surges, spiking the electrical pressure to unstoppable levels and overpowering even the most robust power strip surge protectors. Other possible causes include downed power lines, faulty electrical wiring, and problems with the utility company's equipment.

Why Do I Need a Professional Surge Protector?

While most homeowners visualize a power strip packed with devices when considering surge protectors, proper surge protection involves redirecting excess electricity during voltage spikes to a component known as metal oxide varistors (MOVs). Ordinary household power strips offer limited protection and usually need replacement after a power surge. The ideal solution is a whole house surge protector.

Protecting Your Entire Home

Our whole house surge protection installation will protect your entire home from electrical surges. If lightning enters your home, it’s stopped by a whole house surge protector. Our service professionals will explain your options for whole house surge protectors. The main panel surge protector is small, approximately the size of two decks of cards.

  • Integrating surge protection into your home is a vital component of an overall safety strategy that also includes smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms. It's a modern necessity that completes the protective trinity for any forward-thinking homeowner. Each safeguard in your home interacts with one another, providing peace of mind and comprehensive coverage. Integrating surge protection with other systems ensures all bases are covered in any unforeseen home-related emergencies or hazards. Investing in surge protection is not just about immediate threats. It's also about being prepared for the future and acknowledging that while we can't predict when we'll face an electrical surge, we can control our response to it.
