Electrical Surge Protection in Kentucky

3/8/2012

0 Comments

 
    Considering we have had some disastrous weather recently I thought it would be a good idea to provide some information about surge protection.  We most commonly think of power strips that we plug into a wall as a surge protector.  Unfortunately most people don't realize that a power strip is not going to protect that brand new flat screen tv or computer you just bought, it is simply used to have more outlets to plug things in.  There is a difference between a power strip and a surge protector. 
    Whole house surge protection can be installed in less than an hour for much less than the cost to replace a tv or computer.  Typically when a home is affected by a significant surge it will ruin any electronics plugged into an outlet.  Tv's, computers, microwaves, stoves, and most anything with sensitive electronics.  We have installed many whole house surge protection systems but usually after someone experiences a huge loss do they have one installed.  Do yourself a favor and protect your home before it's too late.
