Whole-House Surge Protector Installation in Mint Hill, NC

Our Charlotte team from the Matthews branch completed a whole-home surge protector installation for homeowner Sharon Woodcock in Mint Hill, NC. Completed on July 17, 2025, this project falls under our Panels & Service Upgrades and Whole-House Surge Protection services. Lead technician Will Cruz installed the device at the main electrical panel to safeguard the home’s electrical system, appliances, and sensitive electronics.

What We Installed and Why It Matters

The whole-house surge protector (SPD) was mounted at the main panel to intercept high-voltage spikes and safely divert excess energy to ground. This helps prevent damaging surges from reaching branch circuits and connected equipment.

Defends against voltage spikes from lightning activity in the area
Reduces risk from power grid fluctuations and utility disruptions
Buffers everyday surges caused by large appliances cycling on and off
Helps extend the lifespan of appliances, HVAC equipment, and electronics

Installing surge protection at the panel provides a first line of defense for the entire home, complementing point-of-use protection for added layers of safety.

Warranty and Covered Equipment

This installation included a $10,000, 3-year warranty for covered equipment in the unlikely event of SPD failure. As provided with the product, the warranty details include:

Claims are secondary to the homeowner’s existing insurance policy.
Direct lightning strikes are excluded.
Security systems and medical equipment are excluded.
Covered equipment may include: washer, dryer, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, trash compactor, garbage disposal, stove, wiring, outlets and switches, electrical system components (such as breakers), HVAC equipment located inside the house, and hardwired devices like built-in microwaves, furnaces, air handlers, evaporator coils, hardwired ranges, landscape lighting, and home lighting, when protected by a properly connected Boltshield SPD.

For homeowners in Mint Hill, this level of protection adds peace of mind and helps minimize the cost and disruption associated with surge-related damage.
