Whole-House Surge Protection in South Bend
Complete Protection for Your Appliances & Electrical Devices
An electrical surge can be one of the most unexpected and damaging events that can occur to your home. In fact, in the event of a spike, a common single-outlet surge protector in your home still won’t keep your valuable appliances and electrical devices 100% covered. When a high-level power surge occurs, having whole-home surge protection installed is your safest bet to ensure that your HVAC system, refrigerator, microwave, computers, and other electrical devices remain intact, and your family is safe from electrocution. Make sure you’re ready when trouble strikes by calling the South Bend electricians at Great Lakes Heating & Air Conditioning.

What Is a Power Surge?
A power surge is any unexpected or sudden increase in your electrical system’s current. There are multiple factors that can result in such a spike, and even the smallest occurrences can impact the performance and longevity of your devices and appliances over time. Furthermore, the worse condition your wiring is in, the more prone it is to being ruined by a surge.
Power surges are often caused by:
- Lightning
- Power cycling of large equipment
- Local electrical grid usage during the summer
- Nearby downed electrical lines and transformers
- Single circuit appliance overload
Why You Need a Whole-Home Surge Protector
A power surge might not seem like a big deal when it only lasts a few seconds, but those few seconds can potentially do a ton of damage. Multiple electric surges over time can degrade your system and increase electrical damage or even fire. It is not worth the risk not to have a whole-home surge protector when you have thousands of dollars worth of valuable appliances and devices on the line, and you certainly can't put a price on your safety and peace of mind.
A power surge can damage or even destroy:
- Heating and air conditioning systems
- Kitchen appliances
- Home entertainment systems
- Computers containing sensitive information
