Today's furnaces, refrigerators, washers, and TVs are full of sensitive circuit boards. Lightning, utility switching, and even large motors in your own home can send voltage spikes that damage them over time.
A whole home surge protector mounts at your panel and stops surges before they reach your circuits. Paired with plug-in strips at your electronics, it gives you layered protection for the whole house.
Installation is quick and affordable, and it is an easy add-on during a panel upgrade, generator install, or EV charger project.
