Whole Home Surge Protectors by American Electric Company: Protect Your Home’s Electrical System
Whole Home Surge Protection
Power surges can occur unexpectedly, whether from a lightning strike, a power outage, or even issues within your electrical grid. These surges can damage or destroy sensitive electronics, appliances, and electrical equipment in your home. That’s where a whole home surge protector comes in. This essential device safeguards your entire home from dangerous power surges, ensuring that your valuable electronics and appliances stay safe.
At American Electric Company, we offer professional installation and maintenance of whole home surge protectors in Lake County, McHenry County, and the North Shore area, including Southern Wisconsin. Our team of licensed electricians is dedicated to providing reliable and affordable solutions to protect your home and family from the risks of power surges.
Why You Need a Whole Home Surge Protector
A whole home surge protector is installed at your electrical panel, providing protection for all electrical devices within your home. This device works by diverting excess voltage from a surge away from your home’s electrical system and grounding it, keeping your equipment safe from damage. Here’s why you should consider installing a whole home surge protector:
Protects All Electronics and Appliances: Unlike individual surge protectors that only protect a few devices, a whole home surge protector shields everything in your home, from your refrigerator and HVAC system to your computers and televisions.
Prevents Costly Damage: Power surges can destroy expensive electronics, appliances, and even your electrical panel. A whole home surge protector is a small investment compared to the high cost of replacing damaged equipment.
Increases Home Safety: By preventing power surges, you reduce the risk of electrical fires that could be caused by excessive voltage. A surge protector helps protect your family and home from potential hazards.
Peace of Mind: Knowing that your entire home is protected from unpredictable power surges brings peace of mind. You’ll have confidence that your devices and appliances are safe, no matter what.
