Whole House Surge Protection service for Watford City and nearby towns
Summer thunderstorms, switching on the utility lines and large motors starting inside your own building all send voltage spikes through the wiring. Whole house surge protection in Watford City stops them at the panel, before they reach your equipment.
A panel-mounted surge protective device installs quickly, usually in about an hour, and has an indicator that shows it is still protecting. We pair it with point-of-use protectors for your most sensitive electronics.
Around Watford City, older farm and ranch homes sit near housing and shops built during the Bakken years. We work on both. Open country and steady wind in McKenzie County are hard on overhead services and outdoor equipment, which keeps surge protection, yard lighting and backup generators high on the list.

Whole House Surge Protection in Watford City: common questions
Does a whole house surge protector stop lightning?
It handles the surges that travel in on the wiring, including those from nearby strikes. No device can promise protection from a direct strike on the building.
Do I still need power strips?
Point-of-use protectors add a second layer for computers and home theater equipment. The two work together.
How long do surge protectors last?
They wear a little with every surge they absorb. The indicator light tells you when it is time to replace the device.
How fast can you install one in Watford City?
It is usually a single short visit. Call (888) 633-7804.
