Serving Tampa & Surrounding Areas Protecting your home electrical system is important, and part of that protection means making sure your system is safe from damages that come from outside, like lightning storms and other major power grid events. Though typically brief when they happen, power surges can cause extensive damage if your home is left unprotected. On average, a home has around $10,000 of unprotected electronics inside. Having Whole Home Surge Protection installed from Home Service Heroes is a safe and easy way to keep your home and electronics safe from these kinds of unforeseeable electrical events.
By having a Whole Home Surge Protection System installed from Home Service Heroes, you can also prevent damage to expensive electronics such as personal computers or TVs and other costly home appliances.

Whole Home Surge Protection Installation
When it comes to residential use, there are two primary types of surge protectors:
Service Entrance Surge Protector
A Service Entrance Surge Protector is the largest and most durable class of surge protectors you can get for a residential home. They are typically installed near the main electrical panel or meter. Power exits the main distribution transformer, enters the surge protector, and then flows to the main breaker panel, protecting electronics from harmful surges that come from somewhere other than the power grid.
Point of Use Surge Protector
Point of Use Surge Protectors can typically plug into a wall outlet and will protect all expensive devices like TVs and computers. While these work well for smaller electrical appliances, they are unable to protect your home from a power surge.
Home Surge Protector
Designed to fit inside your main breaker box, the Whole Home Surge Protector can be customized to protect an individual circuit – or every circuit in your home. They protect your home against surges both large and small, the extent depending on the model that you decided to go with.
