Surge Protection in New Port Richey, FL.
Surge Protection for New Port Richey homes, done by licensed Tampa Bay electricians. Tampa Bay gets called the lightning capital of the United States for a reason. Some neighborhoods see 10 to 15 strikes a year within a half mile, and every one of those strikes sends a voltage spike down the power lines into your house.

How much does whole-house surge protection cost?

Isn't a power strip surge protector enough?
No. A power strip surge protector handles small, minor fluctuations for whatever's plugged into it, but it can't handle a real lightning-related surge and does nothing to protect hardwired appliances like your AC, water heater, or refrigerator. Whole-house protection at the panel is a completely different level of coverage.
