Difference Between Whole-House Surge Protection and Power Strips
Many homeowners think plugging electronics into a power strip is enough to protect them from surges, but that’s only part of the solution. Power strips are designed to protect smaller items like TVs, computers, or gaming consoles from minor surges. They serve a purpose, but they don’t provide complete coverage for your entire home.
Whole-house surge protection is installed directly at your electrical panel, where it safeguards every circuit in your home. That means large appliances like refrigerators, HVAC systems, washers, and dryers—items that power strips can’t protect—are covered. By combining whole-house surge protection with power strips at individual outlets, you create a layered defense against damaging surges. At Jack Lehr Heating Cooling & Electric, we install high-quality systems that work seamlessly with your home’s electrical setup.
The Benefits of Whole-House Surge Protection Installation
The biggest advantage of whole-house surge protection is peace of mind. A single surge from a lightning strike, downed power line, or utility grid fluctuation can destroy expensive electronics and appliances in seconds. With protection installed at your panel, every device and system in your home is shielded.
Other benefits include extending the lifespan of your appliances, reducing costly repairs, and preventing unexpected downtime. Even small, daily surges that often go unnoticed can gradually wear down electronics, causing premature failure. Whole-house surge protection prevents this hidden damage, saving you money in the long run.
At Jack Lehr Heating Cooling & Electric, our Comfort Specialists install surge protection devices built for reliability. We’ll evaluate your system, recommend the right unit, and install it with precision so you can enjoy years of safe, dependable power.
Watch for Indications Your Home Is Experiencing Power Surges
Sometimes, the signs of power surges are subtle, but catching them early can prevent major damage. Common indications include:
- Flickering or dimming lights
- Frequent tripped breakers
- Devices that suddenly shut down or restart
- Buzzing outlets or unusual electrical odors
- Electronics that fail earlier than expected
If you’ve noticed these issues, your home may already be experiencing damaging surges. Calling in a professional is the safest way to diagnose the problem and provide lasting protection.
