A surge protector is a device that blocks or redirects excess electrical voltage before it can damage your electronics, appliances, or home wiring. Power surges can happen during lightning strikes, downed power lines, or even when a large appliance cycles on. While small plug-in surge strips offer some protection, they only cover what’s directly plugged into them. A whole house surge protector, installed at your main electrical panel, defends your entire home from sudden spikes in voltage. At Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, we install reliable surge protection systems that give you peace of mind—so your expensive equipment and smart devices stay safe no matter what hits the grid.
Surge protectors do have indicator lights on them. It varies by brand and style of unit how many lights there are and what each of them indicates. Some surge protectors will say on the unit what each of the lights indicates and what it means if the lights are on or off. So, it is important to check your surge protectors on a regular basis.
A large surge can damage the surge protector while it trips the breaker, so in addition to regularly checking the surge protector, it is important to check it any time you reset a tripped breaker.
Absolutely. A whole-house surge protector serves as a vital defense mechanism against voltage spikes by monitoring and, if necessary, interrupting the flow of electricity when it exceeds safe levels. These surges pose a significant threat to all electrical equipment within your home, potentially leading to costly damage. By promptly detecting and mitigating surges, a whole-house protector safeguards not only your appliances but also any electrical infrastructure installed throughout your property, ensuring uninterrupted functionality and peace of mind.
Electricity needs a reference to ground, meaning the ground connected to Earth. When voltage comes in contact with ground, it will trip the circuit breaker or have a point of ground to prevent energizing things that are not meant to be energized. Grounding is for your safety.
How do you tell if your house is properly grounded? You will need to have ground rods, cold water bond with a properly installed main bonding jumper, and grounding run to all energized locations. To the untrained eye, it is hard to tell if proper grounding is present. Your safest option is to have a qualified electrician verify that proper grounding is in place.
Whole-home surge protection is vital to safeguard your electrical system and devices from sudden voltage spikes that can occur from lightning strikes, power outages, or surges from the power company. Without adequate protection, these surges can damage or destroy electronics, appliances, and even electrical fixtures, leading to costly repairs or replacements. Done specializes in installing whole-home surge protectors, which are integrated into your electrical panel to provide comprehensive protection throughout your entire home. This proactive approach ensures that all your valuable electronics and appliances are shielded from unexpected electrical surges, keeping your home safe and your mind at ease.
It used to be that surge protectors were something you only plugged your computer or TV into. But modern homes are filled with sensitive electronics—smart thermostats, kitchen appliances, washing machines, HVAC systems, even charging stations for electric vehicles. All of these devices are vulnerable to sudden voltage spikes. And with Aurora and Greater Denver’s seasonal storms and unpredictable utility grid fluctuations, surge protection isn’t just helpful—it’s essential.
A whole home surge protector protects everything inside your home by stopping excess voltage at the source: your electrical panel. That means your devices stay safe even when lightning strikes nearby, the power company switches lines, or your HVAC system sends a spike through the system.
When a power surge occurs, the electrical current suddenly jumps well above safe levels. That excess power has to go somewhere—and without protection, it travels into your home’s wiring and directly into your devices. A whole house surge protector, sometimes called a surge suppressor, acts like a pressure valve. It senses the spike and diverts the extra electricity away from your home’s circuits, usually straight into the ground. The result? Your lights may flicker, but your equipment stays intact.
Many homeowners associate surge protection with thunderstorms—and yes, Colorado’s stormy spring and summer seasons can wreak havoc. But most surges don’t come from outside. In fact, most power surges originate inside your home, often from large appliances like air conditioners, water heaters, and refrigerators kicking on and off. Over time, even small surges can degrade electronics and shorten the lifespan of your major appliances. A home surge protector helps smooth those fluctuations, extending the life of your most expensive systems.
Those multi-outlet strips under your desk? They help—but only for what’s plugged into them. They can’t stop a power surge from flowing through your electrical panel, wiring, or HVAC system. If you’re relying on surge strips to protect your entire home, you’re leaving a lot at risk.
A whole house surge protection system covers everything—even the hardwired items that don’t plug in at all. That includes your furnace, oven, dishwasher, washing machine, garage door opener, and more. It’s comprehensive protection, installed once and working silently in the background 24/7.
Installing a whole home surge protector means opening up your main service panel—something that should only be done by a licensed electrician. At Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, our experts are trained to select the right device for your home’s system, install it safely, and test it for performance. We’ll also check for potential vulnerabilities in your setup, such as outdated grounding or overloaded breakers.
We handle surge protection as part of a complete home electrical strategy—not just a one-off fix. Our goal is to protect your investments and your family with work that meets the highest standards for safety, compliance, and long-term reliability.
Power surges can cause instant and expensive damage—and often, homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it unless you’ve taken steps to prevent it. Replacing a fried fridge, router, or central air unit can cost thousands. A whole house surge protector is a small, one-time investment that can save you from those big surprises. For many homeowners, it pays for itself the first time it prevents a major loss.
Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric has been protecting homes in Aurora and the Greater Denver area since 1999. We know how quickly a sunny afternoon can turn into a lightning storm—and how fragile today’s home systems can be. Our licensed electricians install high-quality surge protection systems built for the demands of Colorado homes, with guaranteed work and honest pricing every time.
