How Does a Power Surge Affect Your Home?

When most people think of a power surge, and damage it may cause, they think of their computer and a long power strip to plug the computer into.  A computer is indeed one electrical device that a power surge may cause damage to in your home, however as today’s electronics overall become more sophisticated, a power surge can damage much more than just your computer.
Many appliances today run from an internal computer.  For example, newer laundry machines and HD TVs all run from an internal computer that if hit with a power surge will be rendered just as useless as your home desktop computer if it hit with one.
Installing a power strip protector on all of your high-end appliances in not convenient, or in most cases is it even possible.  A whole house surge protector will protect your expensive appliances and TVs. 
A surge protector is installed by a licensed electrical professional at the source of power for your home; the electrical box.  The job of the whole house surge protector is to even out the flow of electrical current to your home so your high-end appliances won’t become overloaded by too high of a spike in the flow of current. 
Power surges are cause by a variety of things that can include lightning strikes and downed power lines.  Summer electrical storms and winter snow pile up and times when your home can be especially vulnerable to a sudden surge in power. 
The whole house surge protector diverts large surges in power before they enter the home and cause damage.
For your best protection, Stafford Home Service recommends a whole house surge protectors at each of your electrical boxes in the home.  To ensure your computers and televisions are protected at the highest level, high quality power strip protectors are also recommended.
