Whole House Surge Protection
Power surges can happen from storms, utility issues, appliances cycling on and off, and problems outside the home. Many surges are small and go unnoticed, but over time they can damage electronics, appliances, HVAC equipment, garage door openers, computers, televisions, and other items plugged into your electrical system.
Whole Home Surge Protector Installation
A whole home surge protector is installed at the electrical panel to help reduce damaging voltage spikes before they travel through the home. It adds a strong layer of protection for the entire electrical system, not just one outlet or one power strip.
Recent surge protector installation: The surge protector shown in this photo is installed in the top right area of an existing electrical panel. ProLectric installed the surge protection device only. The panel shown is an older existing panel and was not installed by ProLectric.
Why Surge Strips Are Not Enough
Plug-in surge strips can be useful for computers, televisions, and office equipment, but they only protect the items plugged into them. They do not protect hardwired equipment, large appliances, HVAC systems, or everything else connected to the home’s electrical system.
A whole home surge protector provides the broadest level of surge protection available for your home's electrical system and works best when used together with quality point-of-use surge protection for sensitive electronics.
Protect Appliances, Electronics, and Equipment
A whole home surge protector can help protect:
- Air conditioning and heating equipment
- Refrigerators, washers, dryers, and dishwashers
- Televisions, computers, routers, and gaming systems
- Garage door openers and smart home equipment
- Other electronics and appliances throughout the home
