Do You Need Home Surge Protection?
Do your lights flicker during bad weather or dim when you turn on an appliance? Voltage spikes can fry anything connected to your home’s electrical system, including TVs, fridges, computers, and even HVAC units. A whole-home surge protector stops this before it can cause damage, helping you avoid costly repairs or replacements.
Here are some signs you might need whole-home surge protection:
- You live in an area prone to storms or lightning, which is the biggest cause of harmful power surges.
- You’ve added or upgraded major appliances or electronics, putting a bigger strain on your electrical system than before.
- Your devices aren’t working, and there’s no other explanation. A power surge can permanently fry appliances.
- Your circuit breakers trip often, which usually means there isn’t enough power to go around in your home.
- You work from home or run a home business, so protect your work, files, and more with a surge protector.

FAQs
A power strip is basically a multi-outlet extension cord that allows you to plug in low-energy devices like lamps, phone chargers, and holiday lights. On the other hand, a surge protector has built-in components that absorb voltage spikes and protect appliances from electrical system damage. They are a better option for TVs, computers, gaming systems, and routers. A power strip may trip and turn off during a power surge, but it won’t necessarily protect the items plugged into it.
A whole-home surge protector uses only a small amount of energy because it only turns on when something goes wrong. It also doesn’t draw power like an appliance or device. Instead, it monitors your incoming voltage and diverts extra energy away from your electrical system when there’s a spike. You shouldn’t notice an increase in your utilities from a surge protector.
When we come out to evaluate your home for a whole-home surge protector, we look at a few factors, including:
- Your home’s amperage
- Amount and types of appliances you have
- Number of subpanels and circuits in your home
- Local power grid
- Your area’s lightning risk
We consider all of these factors when making recommendations for whole-home surge protectors so you won’t experience issues while working from home or using multiple appliances.
