Whole-Home Surge Protection in Charleston, Mt. Pleasant, & Summerville, SC

Does your home have effective protection against power surges? Typical power surges aren’t the major events you may envision when you think of them, with dimming or dying lights due to a storm or high wind. More subtle power surges occur constantly in many places, putting unnecessary strain on electronic devices and home electrical networks — a strain that ends up costing you money down the line as devices fail, bulbs break, and outlets need replacing.

If you’re interested in whole-home surge protection to keep your home safe against these headaches and more, you’ll want to work with a team of experts you can trust to get the job done right and properly secure your home against poorly managed electricity — a team like the electricians at Preferred Home Services.

Looking for surge protection services in Charleston, SC? Call Preferred Home Services at (843) 405-3601 and let us help you get ahead of the storm.

Our Whole-Home Surge Protection Services

Whole-home surge protection is a straightforward process in which an electrician installs a whole-home surge protector on your electrical panel or meter. This device measures incoming voltage, and if a surge occurs, it regulates the incoming electricity to keep it at a safe level as it passes into the wiring of your home.

This allows you to get the benefits of a traditional surge protector applied to everything electrical in your home, including devices that are hardwired in, like ceiling fans, or have unique plugs, like major home appliances, and can’t be plugged into a power strip or other external surge protector. Of course, using those devices in combination with a whole-home surge protector can give you additional safety on your most precious devices, such as home computers and luxury electronics.

Benefits of Whole-Home Surge Protection

There are three major reasons homeowners should strongly consider a whole-home surge protector, including:

  1. Reducing the risk of expensive electrical repairs: Constant surges can do a number on the components of your home electrical system, requiring rewiring, outlet replacement, and other costly repairs over time.
  2. Keeping your electronics, lightbulbs, and other devices intact longer: Constant low-level power surges take a toll on every device touched by that excessive voltage, even if the signs aren’t obvious.
  3. Minimizing the risk of electrical fires and other threats to your safety: Bad surges poorly managed can lead to electrical fires in some cases, and minimizing that risk is reason alone to consider surge protection solutions.

By installing surge protection for your entire home, you’re ensuring that every device connected to your electrical system is shielded from sudden voltage spikes. Unlike individual device surge protectors, whole-home surge protection safeguards every outlet, providing a comprehensive layer of defense.

Signs You Need Surge Protection for Your Charleston Home

Charleston’s picturesque landscapes also come with the trade-off of frequent and often intense storms. These storms can lead to power outages and surges, putting your home’s electronic infrastructure at risk. Lightning strikes can send powerful surges through your electrical system, potentially damaging or destroying TVs, computers, and other expensive home appliances.

Not sure whole-home surge protection is necessary? Consider investing in whole-home surge protection if you’ve ever noticed:

  • Flickering lights and constant need to replace bulbs
  • Devices are prone to problems and failure
  • Circuit breakers seem to trip often
  • Outlets get damaged and don’t always work correctly
  • Discoloration of walls or outlets

    ~ Katie V.

    At 6 PM on a 95-degree day, I noticed that my system was not cooling and was in fact down. I called and was pleased to have someone pick up the phone and listen to the symptoms of the problem. They ultimately dispatched a repair person who was able to get the system up and running by 8:30 PM in advance of a long, hot holiday weekend, I was very pleased with the prompt response to my emergency.

    They installed a new unit and replaced all the duct work under my house. They did a great job and were very professional and had the job done in just two days! I will highly recommend this company to anyone needing work.
