Why Every Home Needs a Whole-House Surge Protector

In today’s world, your home is filled with sensitive electronics — from TVs and gaming consoles to smart appliances and security systems. A single power surge can damage them all in an instant. That’s where a whole-house surge protector comes in. At Evergreen Electric, we help protect your home (and your wallet) from unexpected electrical spikes with professional surge protector installations that keep your power reliable and your peace of mind intact.

Power surges happen when there’s a sudden spike in electrical current — more voltage than your home’s wiring is built to handle. While lightning strikes are a well-known culprit, most surges actually come from inside your home, caused by:

  • Large appliances like air conditioners or refrigerators cycling on and off
  • Faulty wiring or overloaded circuits
  • Utility grid switching and nearby transformer issues
  • Lightning strikes or power line damage during storms

Even small, repeated surges can wear down your electronics over time, slowly shortening their lifespan.

⚙️ How a Whole-House Surge Protector Works

CALL NOW TO BOOKCALL NOW TO BOOK
Unlike basic power strip surge protectors, a whole-house surge protector is installed directly at your electrical panel. It acts as a gatekeeper — automatically blocking or redirecting excess voltage before it travels through your home’s wiring.

This means every outlet, appliance, and device gets consistent protection, even the ones hardwired into your system (like HVAC units, stoves, and washers).

🔧 Why You Should Have a Professional Install It
