Give us a call today: 724-898-2587The appliances in your home, from your TV and computer to your heater, are valuable assets.

To truly protect your appliances, what you need is whole-house surge protection provided by our team.

These aren’t the power strips you can buy in stores that feature surge protecting capabilities. Real surge protectors are installed by licensed electricians, usually within your electrical panel. That is a job that only a trained professional should handle.
Contact Kennihan Plumbing & Heating, Inc. to schedule your surge protector installation. We treat your home like it's our grandma's home.
The Reality of Power Surges
How likely do you think it is that a stray lightning bolt will strike your home in either Butler, Gibsonia, or even across the county, create a power surge, and disable all of your expensive appliances? Very unlikely. However, this is what many people envision when we talk about power surges, and it leads them to believe that there’s a very small chance they’d ever need whole-house surge protection.
The reality is that most power surges are created in your own home every day, just on a much smaller scale. When a particularly powerful appliance in your home demands energy, there’s a chance it can create a power surge and damage other appliances. A whole-house surge protector will route that extra current into the ground and away from your electrical system.
Dependable For Years of Service
Surge protectors are great for the cumulative effect of small power surges through the house, but that’s not to say they can’t help you in the event of extreme events: lightning strikes, stormy weather, or downed power lines. Even if you’ve personally never encountered one of these issues before, being prepared with a surge protector will make all the difference.
Your surge protector should give you a service life of about two to three years. We can check your surge protector with every maintenance check to ensure that it’s still working properly to protect your appliances.
