Whole-Home Surge Protection for Seattle Houses

What a Power Strip Cannot Do

Most people picture a lightning strike when they hear the word surge. In practice, the damaging surges in a Seattle home come from far more ordinary places: utility switching after a windstorm outage, a transformer fault down the street, or a large appliance in your own home cycling off and sending a spike back through the panel. These small surges happen constantly, and they degrade electronics gradually rather than destroying them in one dramatic event.

A plug-in power strip only protects what is plugged into it. It does nothing for your induction range, your dishwasher, your washer and dryer, your garage door opener, or the smart thermostat wired into the wall — which is precisely where the expensive equipment now lives.

A whole-home surge protective device installs at the panel and clamps incoming surges before they reach any branch circuit. Layered with point-of-use protection at your most sensitive electronics, it is the most cost-effective insurance available for a modern, appliance-heavy home.

• Protects every hardwired appliance and circuit
• Installed at the panel by a licensed electrician
• Defends against grid switching and internal surges
• Typically a same-day, half-day installation
• Manufacturer-warrantied devices
