As summer rolls into Asheville, so do those fast-moving thunderstorms. While a little lightning can be beautiful to watch, it can do serious damage — not just to your electronics, but to your home’s entire electrical system.

🌩️ Surges Don’t Just Fry TVs — They Can Damage Your Wiring

Most people think surge protectors are only for their expensive electronics: TVs, gaming systems, smart fridges. And yes — that’s part of it. But what many homeowners don’t realize is that a power surge can also:

• Burn out home automation panels and HVAC controls

• Destroy EV chargers, generators, and appliances

• And worst of all — damage the wiring inside your walls

Yes — that same power surge can overload and weaken or destroy the copper wiring behind your outlets, light fixtures, and breaker panel. Replacing that isn’t just expensive — it’s invasive, messy, and avoidable.
