A home surge protector is an electrical device that helps protect against power surges. It works by limiting the amount of voltage that enters your electrical system, providing protection for connected appliances and electronics from potentially damaging spikes in voltage. This prevents damage to important systems and reduces energy losses due to overheating or damaged components.
Whole house surge protectors are wired directly into your electrical panel and provide protection for the entire property. As such, they are the best option for ultimate protection against power surges that can cause great damage to your home’s wiring and appliances.

Much like your home’s overall electrical system, a surge protector requires periodic maintenance. There really aren’t any cons to having surge protection installed! According to the National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association, the average home has $15,000 worth of equipment that can be damaged by power surges. Investing in surge protection is a minor expenditure in comparison to the damage power surges can cause.
Whole house surge protection should be installed by a qualified electrician because the device connects directly to the home’s electrical panel. During an installation, our electricians can evaluate the existing electrical system, determine the appropriate surge protection solution, complete the installation, and verify that the system is properly connected.
Professional installation also gives homeowners an opportunity to identify other electrical concerns that may affect the performance or safety of the system. If your home has an older electrical panel, recent electrical upgrades, sensitive electronics, or other specific power requirements, Weisman Electric can help determine whether additional electrical work should be considered.
Every home should have surge protection installed. Especially considering that a typical home or building experiences multiple power surges every day. New 2020 National Electric Code requires all new and renovated homes to be protected by Type 1 or Type 2 surge protective devices.
At Weisman Electric Co., we want to ensure the same protection standard is also placed in our customers’ existing homes that are not under renovation or new construction. As an experienced electrician, we can inspect your home’s electrical system and wiring layout, as well as the appliances that it powers and recommend the best type and size of surge protector for your property.
We also provide you with an accurate estimate of the whole house surge protector installation and maintenance cost. Investing in whole home surge protection is a smart decision that could save you time and money down the road by preventing the need for costly repairs or replacements of damaged electrical components and appliances.
Whole home surge protection is absolutely worth the investment, as it can save you from costly repairs and replacements resulting from power surges. Power surges are a fact of life, but with proper protection in place, you can feel confident knowing that your home is safe from sudden voltage spikes.
Whole home surge protection can be considered for both existing homes and new construction. It may be particularly valuable when a home contains expensive electronics, smart home equipment, HVAC controls, home office technology, entertainment systems, or other sensitive electrical equipment.
If you are remodeling, upgrading your electrical panel, adding major appliances, or building a new home, it is also a good time to discuss surge protection with your electrician. Weisman Electric can assess the electrical system and explain which surge protection options may be appropriate for your property.

Whole house surge protection can provide an important layer of protection for modern homes, particularly those with sensitive electronics, smart home systems, HVAC equipment, and other expensive electrical devices. A qualified electrician can evaluate your electrical system and recommend an appropriate solution for your property.
They serve different purposes. A whole house surge protector is installed at the electrical panel and is designed to provide broader protection for the home’s electrical system and connected equipment. Plug-in surge protectors can provide an additional layer of protection for individual devices. Depending on your electrical setup and equipment, using both approaches may be appropriate.
The service life of a surge protective device depends on factors such as the number and severity of surges it absorbs and the specific device installed. Surge protectors can wear down over time, which is why periodic inspection and evaluation are important. Weisman Electric can help determine whether an existing surge protector should be inspected, serviced, or replaced.
A whole house surge protector can help reduce the risk of electrical damage from voltage surges, including some surges associated with lightning events, but no surge protection system can guarantee protection against a direct lightning strike. Properly selected and installed surge protection provides an important layer of defense for a home’s electrical system.
Surge protective devices can require periodic inspection because their protective components may degrade after absorbing surges. Weisman Electric can inspect your surge protection system and help determine whether it remains suitable for your home’s electrical needs.
