Deadly Summer Heat During Blackouts

Losing power during 115-degree heat turns a home dangerously hot within hours, threatening family safety and perishable medications.

What we do

Our automatic standby systems sense utility power loss and restart central air conditioning compressors within 10 to 15 seconds.

electric_meter

Dangerous Portable Generator Backfeeding

Plugging portable generators directly into wall outlets without an interlock backfeeds high voltage onto utility lines, endangering linemen.

What we do

We install mechanical interlock switches and outdoor inlet boxes that make backfeeding physically impossible.

Surge Spikes Damaging Generator Controls

Transfer switches subject to utility return surges experience fried circuit control boards when grid power suddenly snaps back on.

What we do

We incorporate heavy-duty surge suppressors directly on both the utility and generator inputs of the automatic transfer switch.
