A Fort Myers homeowner recently reached out for added protection against Florida’s frequent lightning strikes and power surges. Our team installed a 240V panel-mounted whole home surge protector with an 80kA rating, hardwired directly into the main panel for maximum coverage. We verified proper grounding, tested the unit, and completed the installation in under two hours with minimal disruption.
The result was a fully protected electrical system that shields the homeowner’s appliances, HVAC, electronics, and lighting from costly surge damage. This upgrade not only improves safety but also provides long-term peace of mind.
