HOW WHOLE HOUSE SURGE PROTECTION WORKS

Protection for Your Entire Home

A whole-house surge protector clamps voltage at the panel. When the line voltage spikes above a defined threshold, the device diverts the excess current to ground before it propagates downstream.

It does not replace plug-in surge strips — those handle smaller spikes. It handles the big ones: lightning-induced surges, utility switching events, and large appliance kickbacks.

How We Compare on This Service

Other installers in Cumberland often install whatever is on the truck, skip grounding verification, and don't perform post-install testing.

We check grounding first, use vetted reliable devices, and confirm everything works before leaving.

What Customers Have Said

"Lost a TV and a fridge in a single storm last year. Got Grant's to install a whole-house unit afterward. Six months later, another bad storm — nothing in the house even flickered."

Judith R.

"I asked three companies for quotes. Grant's was middle-priced but the only one who actually checked my panel and grounding before quoting."

Patt S.

"Had a Type 2 unit installed. The tech walked me through what it would and wouldn't protect. No oversell, no scare tactics."

Patricia O.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this protect my electronics from all surges?

No device protects from everything. A whole-house unit handles large external surges. Layer with quality plug-in protectors for sensitive electronics.

How long does a surge protector last?

Quality units have indicator lights. Most last 5 to 10 years in typical Cumberland conditions. Replace when the light goes off.

Is the device covered by my homeowners insurance?

Often the install reduces premiums. We provide documentation that supports claims.

Can I install a surge protector myself?

No. The device installs at the main panel. Licensed electrician required. Most manufacturer warranties require professional installation.

What happens during a direct lightning strike?

The device will likely sacrifice itself but will significantly reduce damage to downstream equipment.
