Prep that matters

We prep the panel by turning off the main breaker and labeling existing circuits. The old surge suppressors are removed safely. We check for any loose connections before the new unit goes in. Every wire is tightened to code standards. Proper prep means the new protector works right the first day.

Follow-through

After the install we run a voltage test to verify protection levels. We show you how the device monitors spikes on a small display. A quick walkthrough covers warranty info and service contacts. We leave a clean work area and a copy of the install report. Follow-through ensures the system stays reliable for years.
