We are under a Heat Advisory from Noon til 8pm and for the next week we will have triple digits. Texas heat is no joke, and we know you want to stay cool. Checking your AC units is very important but also making sure your electrical system is protected is another part of the puzzle. Here are some tips to make sure you stay cool without tripping your breaker.
-Use Surge Protectors as your safeguarding device which protects your phone (when on the charger), laptops, fans, and other electronics from dangerous voltage spikes and diverts that dangerous energy to the ground wire.
-Keep the electrical use to a minimum. Keep lights off, the T.V.(s) to also minimal usage, and unplug unused devices.
Heat storms are unpredictable and can cause surges or outages whether you are taking precautions, but utilizing these steps could further protect your home if one occurs.
