Install a Whole-Home Surge Protector
Most homes don’t have advanced surge protection in Estero. This is because the National Electrical Code (NEC) didn’t require it until 2020. Even if your home is newer, you may need an upgrade. Builders tend to opt for one type of whole-home surge protector or another rather than the multilayered protection that we recommend. For this reason, we encourage all homeowners who haven’t had an electrical inspection in a while to schedule one.
There are two primary whole-home surge protector types used for homes: Type 1 and Type 2. We refer to Type 1 surge protection devices (SPDs) as line-side surge protectors. That’s because we install them on the line side of your electrical panel. That provides the best protection against a direct lightning strike. It also protects against anomalous power from the grid. A common example is a transformer that blows and sends a surge into nearby homes.
Our expert electricians install Type 2 SPDs on the service side of the electrical panel. That means we install it between the panel and the rest of your home’s electrical system. That SPD gives you added protection against lightning strikes and bad power from the grid. It also protects you against surges and spikes that originate from within the home. An air conditioner condenser pump is a common example of a component that can create powerful internal surges.
Multilayered protection requires having both a Type 1 and Type 2 SPD in your home. We also encourage our customers to use Type 3 or local SPDs. An example is a surge protector power strip. While you generally don’t need an electrician for those, we can integrate Type 3 SPDs right into your outlets.

- Computers
- Televisions
- Refrigerators
- Water heaters
