The Service
Whole-Home Surge Protection in Fergus & Centre Wellington
A power surge lasts less than a millisecond, but it can destroy your TV, refrigerator, HVAC system, or any device with circuit boards. Ontario's rural areas — including much of Centre Wellington — see more power quality issues than urban centres due to longer transmission lines, more trees near power lines, and more severe weather. Whole-home surge protection is one of the best $300–500 investments you can make in your home.
A whole-home surge protector installs directly at your electrical panel and catches voltage spikes before they reach your appliances. It's a complement to, not a replacement for, power bar surge protectors at sensitive electronics — together they provide layered protection that covers your entire home.
Dave Stechly Electric installs panel-mount surge protection devices (SPDs) from reputable manufacturers. The installation takes under an hour, and the protection lasts for the life of the panel. We can add one to an existing panel during any service call.
Why This Service
What You Get
Protect Every Appliance
Panel-level protection covers your fridge, HVAC, washer, dryer, and everything else — not just what's on a power bar.
One-Time Installation
Install it once and it protects your home indefinitely. No batteries, no subscriptions, no replacement costs for years.
Rural Power Grid Reality
Rural Ontario sees more voltage spikes from lightning, downed lines, and grid switching events. Surge protection isn't optional out here.
Stackable Protection
Whole-home protection is the first line of defense. Add individual device protectors at your TV and computer for a complete two-layer system.
