Protect Your Entire Electrical System From Power Surges

Installing a whole house surge protector is a smart investment to safeguard your home’s electrical system from unpredictable power surges. Power surges can damage or destroy sensitive electronics and appliances, leading to costly repairs or replacements. A whole house surge protector provides a first line of defense by diverting excess voltage away from your home’s wiring, ensuring that your devices are protected.

At Now Heating and Air, our expert electricians can install a surge protector to keep your home safe and secure. Moreover, it’s important to note that in Colorado, if you upgrade or replace your electrical panel, installing a whole house surge protector is required by law under the National Electrical Code (NEC) 2020​.

Benefits of Installing a Whole House Surge Protector

1. Protects Your Electronics and Appliances: Power surges can occur due to lightning strikes, power outages, or even the operation of large appliances within your home. These surges can damage expensive electronics and appliances, such as computers, televisions, refrigerators, and HVAC systems. A whole house surge protector mitigates these risks by blocking or grounding excess voltage before it reaches your devices.
2. Enhances Home Safety: Electrical surges can pose a fire hazard, particularly if they cause wiring or electrical components to overheat. By installing a surge protector, you significantly reduce the risk of electrical fires, making your home safer for you and your family.
3. Compliance with Local Codes: According to the 2020 NEC, surge protection is now required for all new construction and for any upgrades or replacements of existing electrical panels. This regulation has been adopted in Colorado, ensuring that homeowners are compliant with safety standards. By installing a whole house surge protector, you not only protect your home but also comply with the latest electrical codes.
4. Cost-Effective Solution: While individual surge protectors for each device can be costly and inconvenient, a whole house surge protector provides comprehensive protection for your entire home. This single installation can save you money in the long run by preventing damage to multiple devices and avoiding the need for multiple smaller protectors.
5. Prolongs the Life of Your Devices: Even small, frequent surges can shorten the lifespan of your electronics and appliances by causing cumulative damage over time. A whole house surge protector helps to maintain the longevity of your devices by consistently protecting them from voltage spikes.
6. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your home is protected from electrical surges provides peace of mind. You can rest easy during storms or power outages, confident that your valuable electronics and appliances are safeguarded.
