- What Is a Surge Protector, and Do I Need One?
A whole-house surge protector protects all the appliances in your home from voltage spikes, limiting excess electrical current by blocking its flow or shorting it to ground, much like a pressure relief valve. With all of today’s electronics, you simply can’t afford not to protect your home with a whole house surge protector.
How Do Whole House Surge Protectors Work?
Whole house surge protectors are a great way to protect your home’s electrical system. Whole house surge protectors suppress any large, dangerous power spikes just as individual circuit protectors protect vulnerable appliances and electronic devices. When a whole house surge protector experiences a higher than normal voltage flow through it, the device will automatically divert the excess voltage.
Benefits of Whole House Surge Protectors
Whole house protection is the best defense against power surges of any magnitude. There are many benefits to using whole house surge protectors, Here are 5 reasons you should invest in a whole house surge protector:
- You have a lot of appliances - modern households have more gadgets and electronics than ever before. Appliances with circuit boards such as computers, smartphones and tablets are especially vulnerable to power surges and must be protected in order to prevent damage from a power surge.
- You need extra protection - layering your whole house surge protection is a good idea if you have home entertainment systems or other costly electric set-ups. Layering your protection can protect appliances plugged into shared circuits.
- Complete protection - possibly the biggest benefit of whole house surge protection is that its main function is to prevent your home’s appliances and electronics from being damaged in the case of a power surge.
