Frequently Asked Questions

Will a whole-house surge protector stop all damage?

No surge device protects from a direct lightning strike to the home itself. It significantly reduces damage and handles common indirect surges almost completely. Layering with quality plug-in strips is best.

How long does a surge protector last?

Most quality units last 5 to 10 years in typical Lake In The Hills conditions. The indicator light signals when replacement is due.

Is the install something I can do myself?

No. The device installs at the main panel. Manufacturer warranties and insurance recognition typically require licensed installation.

Does this affect my homeowners insurance?

Many insurers in Lake In The Hills, IL offer rate considerations for properly installed surge protection and better claim outcomes.

What about sub-panels?

We install dedicated surge devices on sub-panels too. The main-panel device alone doesn't fully protect them.
