Whole House Surge Protection FAQs

What is whole house surge protection?
Whole house surge protection is a panel-mounted device that blocks or redirects excess voltage before it can damage appliances and electronics. It protects HVAC systems, refrigerators, televisions, computers, and other connected equipment throughout the home.
How much does whole house surge protection installation cost in San Antonio?
Whole house surge protection installation in San Antonio typically ranges from $400 to $900 depending on panel type, amperage, and installation complexity. Homes requiring panel upgrades may have additional costs. An inspection determines the exact price.
Is a whole house surge protector worth it?
Yes. A single major surge can damage multiple appliances, resulting in thousands of dollars in replacement costs. A properly installed whole house surge protector provides continuous protection and reduces long-term electrical risk.
How long does a whole house surge protector last?
Most whole house surge protectors last between 5 and 10 years, depending on the number and severity of surge events. After a significant lightning strike or utility surge, the unit should be inspected to confirm it is still functioning properly.
What is included in a surge protection plan?
A surge protection plan may include routine inspections, performance testing, and discounted replacement if the unit reaches end of life. Regular inspection ensures continued protection and identifies damage after storm activity.
Do I still need power strips if I have whole house surge protection?
Yes. Whole house surge protection blocks large surges at the panel. Point-of-use surge protectors provide secondary protection for sensitive electronics. Using both levels creates layered defense.
