  • Understanding power surges will reinforce the importance of investing in a whole-house surge protector system. A power surge can occur when a sudden increase in voltage substantially exceeds the standard voltage of 120. During a power surge, the wiring inside your devices will overheat and start to burn. Most homeowners have thousands of dollars in valuable electronics, including computers, televisions, stereos, microwaves, phones that require charging, and more. Most of those gadgets contain microchips or circuitry, making them very sensitive to fluctuations in voltage. Be proactive and protect your belongings with a whole house surge protector installation from Mr. Electric of Northwest Houston. We can install multiple types of whole-house surge protectors based on what’s best for you. Don’t allow a power surge to compromise the performance of your devices and potentially destroy them.

  • Now that you know more about power surges, the good news is that you have a way to protect your valuable devices against them. A surge protector is a power strip that you plug multiple devices into. Surge protectors pass electric current from an electrical outlet to all the devices plugged into the power strip. When a spike or surge happens, the surge protector redirects any extra electricity into metal oxide varistors in the power strip. The power strips you buy in the store or online only give you limited protection and should be replaced after every power surge. Whole house surge protectors are your best option to protect your valuable belongings.

What Causes a Power Surge?


Power surges can happen for many reasons, with the most common being the everyday operation of your heavy-duty electronic devices. Large appliances such as clothes dryers, air conditioners, and refrigerators need a significant amount of electricity to operate their motors and compressors. Other possible causes of power surges include:

  • Downed power lines
  • Faulty electrical wiring
  • Issues with the utility company’s equipment, such as transformers and power lines
  • Lighting strikes, although somewhat rare
  • Whole house surge protectors are somewhat similar to cheaper surge protectors, but the whole house version is able to withstand several power surges without needing to be replaced. Whole home surge protectors protect all your household appliances and devices from being damaged by electrical surges. Mr. Electric of Northwest Houston’s trained professionals install whole house surge protectors and ensure the job gets done safely and efficiently. We would be happy to answer your questions related to the cost of whole house surge protectors.
