The Effects of a Power Surge

Any home device with a microprocessor is susceptible to power surges, including computers, TVs, refrigerators, microwaves, and dishwashers. Significant power surges can short-circuit your systems while smaller surges can slowly wear down the internal circuits of your devices. A power surge can lead to the failure of these devices.

Power Surge Causes

The operation of heavy-duty electrical devices is a typical cause of power surges. Energy used to switch motors and compressors on and off can trigger surges. Microwaves and clothes dryers are particularly susceptible due to their heating elements. Other causes of power surges include:

  • Excessive electricity consumption
  • Extreme weather, like lightning
  • Damaged or collapsed power lines
  • Improperly installed or defective electrical wiring
  • Issues with transformers or utility company lines

Why Install a Whole House Surge Protector?

The installation of a residential surge protector is highly recommended for every home. Even slight power surges can cause progressive damage to devices, leading to their breakdown. With no apparent signs until complete device failure, power strips are not sufficient for total device protection. Installing a whole house surge protector is the optimum way to protect your home and devices from electrical failure.

Defend Your Electronics from Total Loss

Not installing a whole house surge protector can be costly. It is crucial in defending your electronics and appliances from total loss, from personal computer data to expensive kitchen appliances. It provides invaluable peace of mind, ensuring the safety of your devices against surges. The installation expense of a house surge protector is a prudent investment compared to the potential loss of your electronics and appliances.
