Did you know that one of the biggest fire dangers for your Tampa Bay home could be right inside your walls? Many homes are consumed by needless electrical fires. One key factor in avoiding fire danger is a properly functioning electrical system. As part of our commitment to the safety and satisfaction of our customers, we offer Electrical Inspections for only $99. Our Tampa Electricians will inspect your electrical system for the most common causes of electrical fires and check for any risks that may be inherent in your home or office building. Electrical fire danger is posed by the following:
- Outdated Wiring – Most homes constructed before 1950 were generally wired with cloth-insulated wires. As the insulation degrades and falls away from the wire, it allows the exposed wire to arc and starts an electrical fire. If you live in an old home, an electrical home safety inspection is necessary to assess the state of your wiring.
- Aluminum Wiring – During the ’60s and ’70s, a trend of using inexpensive, low-quality aluminum wiring increased the fire danger for many residences. Aluminum wiring is highly prone to arc faults and starting a fire that could quickly consume your home.
- Frequently Tripped Circuit Breakers – Tripped breakers are a positive sign that your electrical system’s safety features are working. It is also a clear sign that you’re placing undue strain on the system. A home safety inspection will determine if newly added circuits can alleviate the problem.
- Overloaded Outlets – If extension cords are just part of your everyday electrical routine, then you are due for an electrical upgrade. When your current system isn’t delivering to your specifications and repeated use of extension cords are used, this is a recipe for a potential electrical fire.
