Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • What is a whole-home surge protector?

    A whole-home surge protector is a device that’s installed in your electric circuit breaker box or main point of power entry to your home. It protects expensive electronic devices (like your computer or big screen TV) by diverting excess current safely through your home’s grounding path.

    This makes it your main defense against a sudden large power surge caused by a lightning strike or a damaged power line.

  • Why not depend on power strips?

    Power strips with built-in surge protection are adequate for smaller surges that happen in your home. But they can’t handle the large surge of an external force (like nearby lightning strikes and damaged power lines).

    The ideal setup is to use power strips with a whole-home surge protector to form a powerful two-tiered surge protection system.

  • What's the chance of lightning striking near me?

    Florida ranks fourth in the nation for lightning flashes, which means our area is especially at risk.

    A whole-home surge protector can help prevent electrical damage caused by lightning strikes.

Cost of surge protector

The cost to install a surge protector can vary based on:

  • Whether you have a subpanel or not:

    If your home has an electrical subpanel, you might need to install an additional surge protector, which will raise the total cost of the installation.

  • The voltage protective rating:

    The lower the VPR number, the better the protection, but the more expensive the unit will be.

  • The MCOV (maximum continuous operating voltage):

    This value tells you how much voltage the surge protector can handle in a steady overload condition. Surge protectors with a higher MCOV will provide more protection but also cost more.

  • The warranty offered:

    The longer the warranty, the more expensive the surge protector will be.
