Whole house surge protection in Palacios: local conditions

Along the Gulf Coast, salt air and humidity corrode outdoor panels, meter bases and AC disconnects faster than anywhere else in the state, and hurricane season brings outages, surges and flooding that can reach outlets and wiring. We see a lot of corroded exterior equipment, storm-damaged service masts and homes where backup power is a priority. That is the background our electricians bring to every whole house surge protection job in Palacios.
