Our Whole House Surge Protection work in Valley Village
Modern homes are full of circuit boards: in the refrigerator, the furnace, the washer, the garage door opener and every LED bulb. A single surge from the grid can damage them all at once. Whole house surge protection in Valley Village puts a device at your panel that clamps those surges before they reach your circuits.

Valley Village whole house surge protection FAQs
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.
Is surge protection required by code?
Current electrical code calls for a surge protective device when a home's service equipment is installed or replaced. It's also a sensible add-on to an existing panel.
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 Valley Village.
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.
Half the house went dark at 9 pm and an outlet smelled hot. They talked me through shutting off the breaker and had someone at the door that night. He fixed a burned connection and checked the rest of the circuit.
