Protect Your Home from Power Surges with a Whole House Surge Protector

Recently, another transformer blew up south of town, marking the second significant power surge in our area in recent history. These power surges can cause serious damage to your electrical appliances and systems. While homeowners' insurance typically covers such damages, the increasing deductibles mean many losses end up being paid out of pocket.
Unfortunately, preventing power fluctuations is nearly impossible. Weather events—often unpredictable—are common triggers, and our aging power grid may be more prone to failures in the future.

So, how can you protect your expensive and sensitive electrical equipment from damaging power spikes?

The answer is simple: install a Whole House Surge Protector.

This device is essentially a breaker-type unit that fits into your electrical panel. It monitors incoming electricity and shuts off power when it detects a surge, protecting everything in your home. To ensure proper compatibility and protection, the surge protector should match the manufacturer of your circuit breaker panel.

Cost and Installation:
• Price range: $70 to $125
• Installation: Similar to installing a new breaker
• Time: An electrician can usually install it in under an hour
• Professional installation is recommended if you’re not comfortable working inside your electrical panel
Is it worth the money?

I can personally attest to the value of this protection. The recent power surge damaged three heat pumps belonging to a friend, and I lost a furnace, refrigerator, three portable appliances, and an expensive battery charger. Many others in the community suffered even greater losses.
When a surge happens, you will regret not having taken this precaution. Don’t let that be you.

Best regards, Dan Christensen
