Equally important to having a secure foundation of your home is having a safe, functioning electric panel – and no one understands this better than Parker & Sons. Whether you want to schedule a tune-up, or believe you need an entirely new installation, Parker & Sons has provided the Phoenix area with premier services and expertise when it comes to any electrical need.
Without proper maintenance of these panels, Kelly stresses that they can suffer damage from occasional leaks, causing further water damage that might be irreversible in some cases. In order to avoid escalation, Parker & Sons says that you should be checking your panel for any indication of rust or moisture in or around the panel. They also stress that if you see any signs of potential water/leak damage, to call a professional immediately, as water and electricity make for a deadly combination.
Kelly also points out that, for whatever reason, the panel could be poorly manufactured. “From time-to-time, we notice that some electric panels will just give out because they were improperly made. The person who had originally installed the panel was just doing their job, but didn’t know that the panel itself was of a weaker brand, etc.” said Kelly. Thus, a tune-up or inspection of your panel by Parker & Sons professionals could benefit you in the long-run, by addressing the situation before it takes a turn for the worst.
Lastly, Kelly pointed the necessity of electric panel tune-ups to maintaining the integrity of the wires. Far too often do people find their panels using more amps than necessary, or find their panel improperly wired. By making a mental or physical note to include routine evaluations and tune-ups to your home’s electric panel, the better shape you will be in – financially and electrically – throughout the rest of the year.
If you haven’t already done so, we suggest calling Parker & Sons for an electrical panel tune-up with a whole house electrical safety inspection that they are offering for $69.
