Isn't a power strip enough?

No. A power strip only protects the few devices plugged into it and only against small surges. A whole-house device at the panel stops large surges, including from lightning and the grid, before they enter your wiring. Call (980) 206-3523 to add one.

What does a whole-house surge protector actually protect?

Everything hardwired and plugged in, from your HVAC and water heater control boards to appliances, computers, and smart-home gear. These are the expensive items a surge destroys, and a power strip can't reach them.

Do most surges come from lightning?

Surprisingly, no. Many damaging surges originate inside the home from large appliances cycling on and off, plus grid switching. A whole-house device catches all of them, not just storm strikes.

How Much Does Whole-House Surge Protection Cost?

Whole-house surge protection in the Huntersville and Cornelius area generally runs $200 to $800 installed, depending on the device and any panel work, according to HomeGuide’s surge protector cost data. Set against the cost of replacing fried electronics, HVAC boards, and appliances after a single strike, it’s one of the most cost-effective protections a home can add.

What Surge Protection Prevents

The surge damage we see across Huntersville and Cornelius tends to hit the same expensive components.

The control boards in modern HVAC systems and water heaters are surge-sensitive and costly to replace. A whole-house device shields them at the panel.

Computers, TVs, and appliance electronics are wiped out in an instant by a large surge. Whole-home protection stops the spike before it reaches them.

Frequent small surges from appliances cycling on and off quietly shorten the life of everything electronic. Catching them extends the life of your devices.
