Surge Defense Solutions

We offer tiered surge protection strategies designed to cover every entry point of electrical power into your property. Our primary service is the installation of whole-house surge protectors (Type 1 or Type 2 devices) on the main service panel. These units act as a gatekeeper, diverting excess voltage from external sources like lightning or utility grid switching away from your home. 

We also provide point-of-use protection guidance, ensuring that sensitive devices like home theaters and office equipment have redundant defense. For our commercial clients, we implement heavy-duty protection for critical machinery and data servers, often coordinating with planned electrical upgrades to ensure the panel can accommodate these safety devices.

Our surge protection services include:

  • Type 1 surge protective device installation (service entrance)
  • Type 2 surge protective device installation (panel-mount)
  • Combined Type 1+2 installations
  • Surge current rating assessment and equipment sizing
  • Grounding system evaluation and improvements
  • Double-pole breaker installation for SPD connections
  • External and internal SPD mounting options
  • Multi-mode protection for all circuit configurations
  • Commercial and industrial surge protection systems
  • Coordination with electrical panel upgrades
  • Testing and verification of protection systems
  • LED indicator and alarm system setup

We Fix Power Surge Problems

While lightning strikes are the most dramatic cause of power surges, the majority of electrical spikes actually originate inside the property. Large appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, and sump pumps cycle on and off, sending small but frequent surges back through the wiring that degrade sensitive circuit boards over time. 

We address this invisible threat by installing protection that smooths out these fluctuations. This is critical for preserving the lifespan of the LED lighting and smart home systems we install. By filtering "dirty power," we prevent premature failure of your expensive appliances and electronics, saving you from the frustration and cost of unexpected replacements.

Our service plan provides priority scheduling, regular system checkups, and exclusive savings to keep your home’s electrical system safe and efficient year-round.

Reliable Brands and Verified Performance

We believe that when it comes to protecting your home, only the most reliable equipment will do. We install surge protection devices from trusted industry leaders such as Eaton, Siemens, and Square D by Schneider Electric. These manufacturers offer products with high surge current ratings and visible status indicators, so you always know your system is active and protected. Many of the units we install come with their own connected equipment warranties, adding an extra layer of financial security. We ensure professional results by verifying that your home's grounding system is intact, as a surge protector is only as effective as the ground it connects to.

Our licensed professionals are safety-oriented, ensuring that all connections are torqued to manufacturer specifications and that the installation meets all National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
