Common questions

How much does whole house surge protection cost in North Carolina?

Whole house surge protection is one of the most affordable upgrades we install in North Carolina. Call (888) 592-6466 for pricing.

Will a surge protector stop a direct lightning strike?

No device can guarantee protection from a direct strike, but panel-mounted surge protection dramatically reduces damage from nearby strikes and utility surges — the most common cause of damage in North Carolina, NC.

Do I still need power strips?

Layered protection is best: a whole house unit at the panel plus quality point-of-use protectors for computers and TVs.

How long does installation take?

Typically about an hour, with a brief power interruption.

Does surge protection need to be replaced?

Surge protectors wear with each event. Most have an indicator light; we check them during inspections.
