Summer is the season of sizzling temperatures, backyard barbecues, and powerful electrical storms. While the weather might be ideal for outdoor fun, it also brings an increased risk of power surges that can damage or destroy your electronics and appliances. Fortunately, there’s a simple, affordable way to shield your home: a professionally installed whole house surge protector in Cedar Rapids.
To make it even easier to protect your home, we’re offering $50 OFF Whole House Surge Protector installation for a limited time!
What’s a Power Surge and Why Should You Worry?
A power surge is a sudden spike in voltage running through your home’s electrical system. Even a brief surge can cause irreparable harm to your devices. Sources of surges include:
- Lightning strikes
- Downed or damaged power lines
- Utility grid switching
- Large appliances cycling on and off
Surges can travel through your wiring and wreak havoc on everything from your HVAC system and refrigerator to your television, laptop, and smart home devices.
Summer Storms = Surge Season
Electrical storms are more frequent during the summer, and they’re often more intense. A nearby lightning strike, whether it hits your home directly or a power line down the block, can send tens of thousands of volts through your home in seconds. One surge like that can destroy sensitive equipment or lead to costly HVAC repairs.
And don’t forget, even smaller daily surges from appliances switching on and off can shorten the lifespan of your devices over time.
What Is a Whole House Surge Protector?
A whole house surge protector is installed at your home’s main electrical panel and acts as a gatekeeper, blocking dangerous voltage before it can enter your home’s wiring. Unlike plug-in strips, which only protect individual outlets, a whole house surge protector covers your entire electrical system.
That means:
- Protection for every outlet
- Defense for hardwired appliances (like your air conditioner or dishwasher)
- Long-term savings on equipment repairs and replacements
It’s a comprehensive solution for a very real threat, especially as modern homes rely more and more on sensitive electronics and smart devices.
