Whole-Home Surge Protection
Help protect appliances, electronics, and connected home systems from damaging voltage spikes with surge protection installed directly at your electrical panel.
PROTECTING YOUR HOME
What Is Whole-Home Surge Protection?
A whole-home surge protector is installed at or near your main electrical panel to help limit excess voltage before it reaches equipment throughout your home. It provides broader protection than individual plug-in surge strips and can help safeguard appliances, HVAC equipment, televisions, computers, smart devices, and other sensitive electronics.
While no surge protection device can prevent every possible form of damage, a professionally installed system adds an important layer of protection against common electrical surges.
WHY IT MATTERS
Benefits of Whole-Home Surge Protection
Broad Home Protection
Protect multiple circuits, appliances, and electronic devices from one central location.
Protection for Hardwired Equipment
Help safeguard equipment that cannot be connected to a plug-in surge strip, including HVAC systems and major appliances.
Added Peace of Mind
Reduce exposure to voltage spikes caused by utility events, equipment cycling, and nearby electrical disturbances.
Simple, Centralized Solution
Add protection at the electrical panel without placing surge strips throughout every room.

MORE THAN LIGHTNING
Electrical Surges Can Begin Inside or Outside Your Home
Lightning is one possible source of a power surge, but it is not the only one. Surges can also result from utility switching, power restoration after an outage, and large appliances cycling on and off inside the home.
Because modern homes contain more sensitive electronics than ever, whole-home surge protection can be a practical addition to a broader electrical safety and modernization plan.
Questions About Whole-Home Surge Protection
Whole-home surge protection is designed to add another layer of defense for your electrical system and connected equipment. Here are answers to common questions about how it works.
Does whole-home surge protection protect against lightning?
It can help reduce damage from some lightning-related surges, particularly indirect events, but no device can guarantee complete protection from a direct lightning strike.
Do I still need plug-in surge protectors?
Layered protection is often beneficial. A whole-home device protects at the electrical panel, while quality point-of-use protectors can provide additional protection for especially sensitive equipment.
What appliances can it help protect?
It can help protect major appliances, HVAC equipment, televisions, computers, smart-home devices, and other electronics connected to your electrical system.
How long does a whole-home surge protector last?
Service life varies based on the device and the number or severity of surges it absorbs. Some models include status indicators that show whether protection is still active.
Can surge protection be added to an older electrical panel?
Sometimes, but compatibility and available breaker space must be evaluated. In some homes, other electrical work may be recommended before installation.
