Reasons YOU Might Want a Whole House Surge Protector

These days there are more and more electronics and computer circuitry being built into modern day houses. From smart technology to appliances with motherboards, even LED bulbs have circuit boards in them! These are all expensive items, and items that are essential to our day-to-day functioning. So having them ALL affected by a power surge, all at the same time, is an inconvenience and an expense no one wants to experience. Can you imagine having to replace your refrigerator or HVAC system or both at the same time because of a lightning strike? If you work from home and rely heavily on your computer, you know how nerve-racking it is to shut down your computer and unplug it to protect it and your hard drives during an electrical storm. But none of those are a worry when you have a whole house surge protector. If you would appreciate the peace of mind of knowing you’ll never have to worry about a lightning storm or power surge at your home or business, this blog explains how whole house surge protectors work, and how you can get one installed in your home by our qualified electricians at Lake of the Ozarks.

Protect the ENTIRE Electrical System

A whole house surge protector protects all your appliances, your HVAC system, every wire and every outlet, because it is connected to your electrical service box. So, whether it’s a large surge like a lightning strike, or a smaller surge like those caused by large appliances kicking on and off, or even malfunctions at the power company, tripped breakers, etc. your entire electrical system and everything connected to it is protected.

Peace of Mind

A whole house surge protector can be particularly important if you are a second homeowner and aren’t always at your home to physically shut off and unplug electronics or appliances. If you work from home, your work won’t be interrupted or at risk during electrical storm if you have a whole home surge protector installed. Plus, as a homeowner or business owner, you can rest assured that your wiring and other electrical components will not be affected in the case of a lightning strike.

Sales Feature

If ever you wanted to sell your home in the future, having a whole house surge protector can be a great feature of the home to emphasize. It is like a built-in insurance policy for some of the biggest ticket items and most used amenities in the house.
