Finding a Reliable, Honest Electrician Doesn’t Have to be Hard
Elite Electric, Plumbing & Air offers almost every possible electric service. Our pricing is upfront so you know what you’ll pay before the job even starts, and we are available 24/7. Aside from these benefits, we respect you by respecting your time and arriving as scheduled. A few services that we offer include:
- Outdoor lighting: Adding accent lights to a garden or walkway has never been easier with professional installation. We also provide security lighting that will allow you and your guests to feel safe when entering your home.
- Fan installation: Having a working air conditioner is a must in Florida. However, adding the help of a ceiling fan can help lower electric bills by circulating air. Fans also are a nice aesthetic to any room and can off extra overhead lighting.
- Whole house surge protection: You can easily purchase a surge protector for each individual outlet in your home. However, this expense can add up quickly and often isn’t a long-term solution.
- Panel upgrades or changes: Older homes often have older electric panels. Panels are the electric hub of your home, and if they aren’t updated and fitted for the amount of electricity used, they can easily become a fire risk. If you are looking to update your panel, you can keep the current location or decide for a different area of your home.
- Light switch and outlet installation: After you’ve upgraded the lighting in your home or maybe remodeled and changed the layout, you’ll likely want new light switches or easily accessible outlets. Choosing to install these items yourself can be difficult at best and dangerous at the worst.
How do GFCI outlets work?
When you plug in an appliance to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet, it monitors the power going into and out of the device. GFCIs have a fast-acting sensor that trips or shuts off the circuit if it detects electricity connected to the outlet taking an unintended step to ground, which may be the human body or an electric conductor such as water. As a result, GFCI outlets protect people from electric shock or structures from electric fires.
