  • What are the primary benefits associated with whole-house surge protector installation?

    • Protects Electronics and Appliances: Abrupt jolts of electrical voltage may damage furnaces, heat pumps, air conditioners, refrigerators, washers, dryers, computers, and other valuable items.
    • Electrical System Protection: Key components of your home’s electrical system are also susceptible to power surges, including electrical panels, wiring, and outlets.
    • Cost-Effective Long-Term Investment: A high-quality whole-house surge protector with professional installation is a more significant investment compared to an individual, plug-in surge protector strip from a local retailer. It is generally reasonable to expect a whole-home protector to prevent surge-related repair and replacement costs for at least five to seven years.
    • Prevents Electrical Fires: Most people view the electrical service interruptions that often result from residential power surges as aggravating and inconvenient. The reality is that substantial power surges can also be dangerous if they trigger an electrical fire. Each year across the U.S., home electrical fires contribute to more than 500 fatalities and over $1.3 billion in property damage.

When installing whole-house surge protectors in Orem homes, Mr. Electric of Orem strives for efficiency without compromising safety. Our process adheres to the recommendations of the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing (DOPL) and standards of the National Electrical Code (NEC).

Our electrician will start by performing an initial in-home assessment to determine the best surge protector model for your home.

Before the installation work begins, we will turn off the power at the main breaker.

Our professionals will choose an appropriate location for mounting the surge protector based on proximity to the electrical panel and ease of access. Next, we will complete the wiring connections and ensure the surge protector is properly grounded. Our electrician will always complete a thorough test of the system to ensure it is functioning properly and clean up the workspace before leaving.

Whole-House Surge Protector Installation FAQs

The following are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions regarding power surges and whole-home surge protector installation services.

  • Power surges are events where the electrical voltage rises above the typical operating level, usually exceeding 120 volts. Although power surges may last for only a second, they often create excessive heat, which results in extensive damage.

    In some instances, minor power surges might go unnoticed by the home’s occupants. However, small power surges may still create “hidden” damage that shortens the life span of electrical system components and connected appliances or devices. Common signs of a power surge include a tripped breaker, dimming or flickering of lights, discolored power outlets, blinking digital clocks, and burning odors.
