Surge Protection
Take the STRIKE Out of Lightning
Experience peace of mind knowing that your home & appliances are protected from power surges.
A surge protection system from WFEC uses a two-tiered approach to protect your sensitive electronics. This approach is one of the most effective ways to protect your property. The first tier of protection for your property is a meter-base service entrance surge protection device which reduces power surges to a lower level, and is your fist line of defense.
The second tier of protection comes from an in-home plug strip that sensitive electronic equipment such as computers, TVs and microwaves can be plugged in to directly. The plug strip is designed to protect items that have micro-processors which are more susceptible to surges.
Each one of our devices comes with a manufacturer's warranty if the equipment is properly installed.
Leasing Surge Protection
A meter-base surge protector can be leased for $4.25/month with a one-time $10 installation fee. The light on the unit will go out if it has taken a hit and needs to be replaced. We will replace it as many times as necessary during the life of the lease. If any damage is incurred, we will do all the necessary paperwork for your claim. This unit is designed to protect electro-mechanical devices with motors and compressors that are typically in large appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, heating and cooling systems, etc. It is not designed to protect sensitive electronics equipment such as microwaves, TV’s, DVD players, etc. or any appliance with a microprocessor.
