Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a whole house surge protector last? +

Most quality Type 2 devices in Phoenix run between 7 and 12 years before the indicator signals replacement, depending on local surge activity.

Will my insurance recognize the install? +

Some carriers in Phoenix offer reduced premiums or improved coverage when a panel-mounted surge device is documented. We provide all installation paperwork.

Can I install one myself? +

No. The device mounts inside the live main service panel. This is licensed electrician work in Phoenix. Most jurisdictions require a permit and inspection.

Does a surge protector stop a direct lightning strike? +

A direct strike overwhelms any surge device. The panel device handles indirect lightning surges traveling through utility lines and everyday transients.

Do I still need power strips after this is installed? +

Yes, for sensitive electronics. Layered protection (whole house + point-of-use) outperforms either layer alone.
