Why Is Surge Protection Important?
While surges may seem like rare occurrences, even small, daily surges can wear down your appliances and electronics over time. The following are some key reasons why surge protection is essential for every home:
- Protect Your Electronics: Today’s homes are filled with sensitive electronic devices, from computers and TVs to smart home systems. Surge protection ensures these valuable devices are not damaged or destroyed by electrical surges.
- Prevent Appliance Damage: Large appliances like refrigerators, HVAC systems, and washing machines can be costly to repair or replace. Surge protection helps prevent the internal components of these appliances from being fried by voltage spikes.
- Avoid Fire Hazards: Electrical surges can cause overheating, sparking, or damage to your wiring, increasing the risk of electrical fires. Proper surge protection reduces the likelihood of dangerous fire hazards.
- Extend the Lifespan of Your Electrical System: Surges can degrade your home’s wiring and electrical components over time, leading to more frequent repairs and a reduced system lifespan. By installing surge protection, you can minimize wear and tear on your electrical system.
Signs You May Need Surge Protection
If you’re experiencing any of the following issues, it may be time to invest in a surge protection system:
- Frequent Tripped Breakers: If your circuit breakers trip regularly, it could be a sign that surges are impacting your system.
- Damaged Appliances: If appliances or electronics have suddenly stopped working or show signs of damage, surges may be to blame.
- Fluctuating Power: Lights dimming or flickering can indicate voltage inconsistencies caused by power surges.
- Recent Electrical Storms: If your area has recently experienced electrical storms or power outages, surges may have compromised your home’s electrical system.
Types of Surge Protection Solutions We Offer
At Elite Air & Heat, we offer a variety of surge protection options to meet the needs of your home or business. Our solutions provide comprehensive protection, covering all areas of your electrical system.
Whole-House Surge Protection
Whole-house surge protectors are installed at your home’s electrical panel and are designed to block large surges before they can enter your home’s wiring system. This type of surge protector provides the best overall protection, safeguarding everything from your lights and appliances to your HVAC system and sensitive electronics.
- Prevents Large Surges: Whole-house surge protectors are your first line of defense against major external surges caused by lightning strikes or utility power spikes.
- Covers All Outlets: With a whole-house surge protector, every electrical outlet in your home is protected, meaning all your devices and appliances are safe from potential damage.
Point-of-Use Surge Protectors
We recommend using point-of-use surge protectors for additional protection of your most sensitive electronics, such as computers, televisions, and gaming systems. Point-of-use surge protectors are plugged into individual outlets and act as a barrier between your device and any surges that may occur.
- Portable and Convenient: These surge protectors can be moved and used anywhere in your home, providing flexibility and convenience.
- Extra Protection for Sensitive Electronics: While whole-house protectors provide broad protection, point-of-use surge protectors add an extra layer of security for high-value devices.

- Code Compliance: All surge protection installations are completed in accordance with local and national electrical codes, ensuring your home is both safe and up to code.

Surge protection devices, like any other part of your electrical system, require occasional maintenance to ensure they continue to function properly. At Elite Air & Heat, we offer regular inspections and maintenance services to keep your surge protection system in top condition.
