Frequently Asked Questions

What is a whole-home surge protector?

A whole-home surge protector (technically called an SPD — Surge Protective Device) installs at or near your main electrical panel. It detects voltage spikes and diverts them to ground before they reach your circuits and appliances.

Is a power strip surge protector enough?

Power strip protectors handle small surges and are better than nothing for individual devices. However, they can't stop the large surges that damage HVAC systems, appliances, and built-in electronics. Whole-home protection is the complete solution.

Will a surge protector stop lightning damage?

A panel-mounted SPD significantly reduces lightning surge damage but can't stop a direct strike. Combined with proper grounding and lightning protection systems, it provides excellent protection.

How long does installation take?

Installing a whole-home surge protector at your existing panel typically takes 1–2 hours. No rewiring is required.
