Most homeowners think they're protected from power surges. They're not. 👇
If you're relying on power strips to protect your home during storm season, here's what you need to know: a power strip absorbs one surge — if it's lucky. A whole-home surge protector defends every circuit, every outlet, and every appliance in your house, all at once.
Here's the difference:
Power strip surge protectors:
•Protect only what's plugged directly into them
•Wear out after one significant surge — often without any visible sign
•Offer no protection to hardwired appliances: HVAC, water heaters, smart panels
•Do nothing against surges entering through cable, phone, or data lines
Whole-home surge protection:
•Installed at your main electrical panel by a licensed electrician
•Protects every circuit and outlet in the house simultaneously
•Guards hardwired appliances — HVAC, refrigerators, EV chargers
•Works on every surge, every storm, every time
Spring storm season is here. If a surge hit your home tonight, how much would you lose? For a limited time, NEFCO Electric is offering $49 OFF whole-home surge protection installation.
