Electrical power is at a premium during the summer months, utility companies
will often lower their power output. This is known as a brown out. A brown out
or reduction in power can do permanent damage to your appliances, especially your
air conditioner. Every appliance is designed to work with a certain amount of
power. If that power level declines, your appliances will continue to function
but will be strained to work under pressure.
A single lightning strike to your home can damage or destroy all of you electrical
appliances. You can protect all of your electrical appliances, including your
air conditioner, computer, refrigerator, dishwasher, stereos, televisions, and
microwave by installing a lightning arrestor in your breaker box. This simple
and inexpensive device can save you thousands of dollars if your home is struck
by lightning.
