Answers
Whole-Home Surge Protection Questions
How is a whole-home surge protector different from plug-in power strips?
A panel-mounted whole-home protector provides a first layer of defense for every circuit. Plug-in surge protectors only serve connected devices, so they are best used as an added layer for sensitive electronics.
How long does a whole-home surge protector last?
Service life varies by device and by how many surges it absorbs. Many protectors have a status indicator; if that indicator changes or the house experiences a major surge, have the device inspected.
What does whole-home surge protection help cover?
It helps reduce surge damage to equipment on the home’s circuits, including the HVAC control board, refrigerator, TV, router and smart-home gear.
What can a whole-home surge protector not prevent?
No surge protector can guarantee protection from every electrical event or prevent an outage. Proper grounding, a panel-mounted protector and point-of-use protection work together as layers of defense.
Should I still use point-of-use protection for sensitive electronics?
Yes. Point-of-use protection for TVs, computers, routers and smart-home gear adds another layer behind the panel-mounted whole-home device.
