One surge shouldn't cost you an electrified home.
A surge — from the grid, a nearby strike, or your own big motors cycling — can wipe out your electronics, EV charger, heat pump, solar and smart panel in an instant. A whole-home surge protective device (SPD) at your panel is now NEC 230.67 code on service upgrades, and cheap insurance for everything you've plugged in.

Why whole-home surge protection now
The more of your home runs on electronics and electrification, the more a single surge can cost you.
You added an EV charger
A charger is a big, sensitive, expensive load — exactly what a surge targets.
You have (or want) solar or a battery
Inverters and smart panels are surge-sensitive electronics worth protecting.
A heat pump or smart HVAC
Modern HVAC boards are far more surge-fragile than the old contactors.
A panel upgrade / new service
NEC 230.67 now requires an SPD on new and upgraded dwelling services.
Frequent outages or flicker
Grid switching and brownouts send surges down the line into your gear.
A house full of electronics
TVs, computers, appliances with boards — a surge can take them all at once.

Do I really need whole-home surge protection?▾
If you've added — or plan to add — an EV charger, heat pump, solar or a smart panel, yes. Those are exactly the loads a surge destroys, and NEC 230.67 now requires an SPD on new and upgraded services. It's a small add that protects thousands in equipment.
Isn't a power strip enough?▾
No. A plug-in strip only protects what's plugged into it, and not from the biggest surges coming in on your service. A panel-mounted SPD clamps the surge at the source and protects your whole home — hardwired loads included. We often layer both.
How long does an SPD last?▾
SPDs absorb surges over time and eventually wear out — good ones have a status indicator that shows when they need replacing. We install units with an indicator and note it in your portal so you know.
Can you add it with my panel upgrade?▾
Yes — that's the ideal time, and NEC 230.67 requires it on a service upgrade anyway. Bundling it in is the cheapest way to get whole-home protection.
