Common questions about whole house surge protection in Big Oak Flat
How long does a surge protector last?
Good devices last years, but each surge wears them a little. Most have an indicator light, and we check it during any service visit in Big Oak Flat.
Can you install one during a panel upgrade?
Yes, and it's the ideal time. See electrical panel upgrades and, for outage planning, generator installation.
Don't power strips already protect my electronics?
They help with what's plugged into them, but they do nothing for hardwired equipment like air conditioners, ovens and furnaces. A panel-mounted device protects every circuit, and the two work best together.
Where do surges come from?
Utility switching, nearby faults and lightning cause the big ones. Many smaller surges come from inside the building when motors and compressors cycle on and off.
What customers say
After a surge took out our garage door opener and a TV, they installed a whole house protector at the panel. Quick job, clear price, no upsell.
After two long outages we had a standby generator put in. They sized it properly instead of pushing the biggest unit, and showed us how the transfer switch works.
They ran the 50 amp circuit and disconnect for our spa and coordinated the inspection. Neat work, and they showed up when they said they would.
