Surge Protection Services – Residential & Commercial | Central & South Florida
Protect Your Property from Florida’s Unpredictable Power Surges
Florida is the lightning capital of the U.S., and with its frequent thunderstorms, power outages, and extreme weather especially during hurricane season your home or business is at constant risk of dangerous electrical surges.
While utility providers like Florida Power & Light (FPL) and Duke Energy have improved grid stability, power surges remain common, often caused by:
Direct or nearby lightning strikes
Sudden power restoration after an outage
Equipment failures or transformer issues
Internal system overloads
A power surge is a rapid spike in voltage that can severely damage or destroy appliances, HVAC systems, computers, lighting, and expensive electronics all in a split second.
