PREVENTATIVE MEASURES

What Can Cause Power Surges in Your Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric Home?

While all homes will benefit from whole-home surge protection, some may actually need it more than others. If you notice any of the following signs frequently happening around your home, it is highly recommended that you inquire with Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric about installing a whole-home surge protection system for your house.

Flickering Lights

If your lights frequently flicker or dim, particularly when a larger appliance begins running, you may want to consider installing surge protection as this is indicative that your electrical system is being overworked and could trip, causing a power surge at any second, potentially frying all of your electronics.

Burnt or Discolored Outlets

In the event that you notice any charring, blacking, discoloration etc. on your outlets, you will need to call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric right away! This happens when a power surge has occurred, causing fire damage on your outlets. At the very least, this requires immediate repair from licensed electricians at Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric, but you should also highly consider installing a whole-home surge protection system as well. This will help prevent this same issue from recurring, which is highly likely. The more it happens, the worse the damage will get over time, and the more it will cost you in the long run!

Frequent Circuit Breaker Tripping

If your circuit breaker frequently trips, particularly when plugging in and using high-powered devices, this is likely due to a power surge. In the event your circuit breaker is constantly tripping, it is recommended to call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric and install a whole-home surge protection system in your house to help prevent the constant circuit breaker tripping.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Surge Protection Service

Will A Surge Protector Help Me Save Money On My Power Bill?

No, a surge protector will not help you save money as that is not its purpose. A surge protector is simply a gatekeeper that protects your home.. The power coming to your surge protector will have already passed through your meter and be recorded to your account with your electrical service provider. The surge protector is designed only to block surges in energy in a strong attempt to prevent electrical mishaps.

Will A Surge Protector In The Panel Box Protect Everything In My Home?

A surge protector should protect everything in your home but there are a few rare instances in which lighting could still travel along the main electrical, cable or phone lines and strike your home. Lightning commonly takes the path of the least resistance to quickly exhaust all of its energy and will always go for the least obstructed task. Overall, whole-home surge protectors do a very good job of protecting your home and provide an extra layer of security.

What If I Have More Than One Panel?

If you have more than one panel you may or may not need two surge protectors depending on how your panels are fed from the meter. You will need to have a professional electrician from Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric to assess whether or not you will need an additional whole-home surge protector.

How Big Is A Surge Protector?

Surge protectors are not very large additions at all and provide a very important extra layer of security. The main panel surge protector is only about the size of two decks of cards.

What Is Cable Surge Protection And How Does It Work?

Cable surge protection works in the same way as a typical whole-home surge protector, but instead is installed inside your cable box which is typically on the outside of your house. Cable boxes and/or internet routers contain a lot of electricity that lightning is strongly drawn to. If you have a cable television or internet service, you should absolutely have a cable surge protector because if lightning hits your cable box, it will travel through any other device connected to it and destroy it. If you’re thinking about adding surge protection to your cable box, but aren’t sure whether or not to install it, have a Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric electrical expert consult with you and provide you with more information.

What Is A Surge Protector And What Does It Do?

Surge protectors are typically installed in the main panel box, the home’s electrical system. They are designed to halt power surges at the panel, before they enter the rest of your home. The panel surge protector diverts all the energy away from your home and out into your home’s grounding system, preventing potential catastrophes. Surge protectors can be life-saving additions to your home as they can prevent serious house fires.
