Surge Protection Experts
Protect your home and appliances from damaging power surges with professional whole-home surge protection installation.
Chapter 01
The damage a surge does that you cannot see
A surge rarely looks like anything. The lights blink, and later the microwave will not start, the router is dead, or the air conditioner board has failed. Surges can be caused by lightning, utility issues, or large appliances cycling on and off. Spring thunderstorms are a normal part of the season in Northwest Arkansas, so the first of those is not a remote possibility here.
Damage from small, repeated spikes is quieter. Electronics can wear out early without any single dramatic event, and nobody connects the failed television to the storm from three months ago. A plug-in surge strip protects only what is plugged into it, which leaves the refrigerator, the furnace controls, the HVAC system, and everything hardwired to the panel unshielded.

What whole-home surge protection does
Surge protection blocks or redirects voltage spikes before they reach your home's systems and devices. Whole-home protection helps safeguard all electrical devices, not just those plugged into surge strips. It also helps reduce damage from lightning, but no system can guarantee complete protection from direct hits.
That limit is worth keeping in mind when you call (479) 278-4508. Tell the office how many major appliances and HVAC units you have, whether storms have already damaged anything, and roughly how old the panel is. If you rent, the property owner or manager has to make the request, because Allied cannot schedule directly with renters.
Chapter 03
Weighing the cost of protection against replacing what a surge takes
Think about what is on your electrical system that costs real money to replace: a heat pump or air conditioner, a refrigerator, a water heater with electronics, a home office, a television wall. One strong storm can take several of them at once. Whole-home protection is the piece that sits ahead of all of them.

Surge protection also pairs naturally with a panel upgrade, since both work at the same point where power enters the house.
