With almost 10 years serving Ottawa homeowners as master electricians, our team at Ottawa Electric regularly sees how routine upkeep prevents hazards and reduces costly repairs down the line.
We’d like to share straightforward seasonal tips and practical checklists to help you look after your home’s electrics safely and efficiently.
Cold winters and humid summers in Ottawa can strain your electrical wiring, circuit breakers and HVAC systems. Checking these components each season helps prevent power outages—and keeps your home safe year-round.
Ottawa winters demand careful electrical preparations for safe and efficient homes. We inspect wiring regularly, with special care around hot tubs and saunas, to reduce the risk of faulty connections in freezing temperatures.
Upgrading distribution boards helps avoid power outages during heavy snowfalls or storms. Our electricians install surge protectors to shield expensive equipment like EV chargers and pot lights from voltage spikes common in winter weather.
We also check HVAC wiring systems closely, ensuring heating works reliably through harsh cold spells without interruption. Replacing frayed wires before snowfall lessens dangers like electric shocks or fires caused by broken insulation.
Proper winter preparation keeps your home's electrical network secure and leads smoothly into summer cooling system maintenance tasks ahead.
We must keep cooling systems and wiring in good shape during hot summer months. Proper electrical maintenance helps prevent issues like faulty wiring or overloaded circuits, especially for HVAC units, air conditioners, hot tubs, and saunas.
Regular inspection by a trained technician can locate potential hazards early. We know electrical safety testing spots risks before they cause harm or equipment damage. Effective cooling also depends on ventilation fans running well and proper insulation around wires to avoid overheating.
Professional electrical maintenance services ensure safe operation of home appliances through regular checks of circuit breakers, switches, connectors and fuses linked with air conditioning systems.
Wiring serving outdoor features such as saunas or hot tubs needs timely inspections because moisture raises risks of electrical shock or injuries if faults occur unnoticed—this care ensures reliable performance all summer long.
A quick check-up once a year reduces downtime from breakdowns while improving energy efficiency at the same time; it saves cash too since costs shrink when machines run smoothly without needless repairs.
We often spot potential issues early by checking circuit breakers and wiring—saving time and money. Surge protectors are another simple tool to prevent electrical failures at home.
Regular inspections of circuit breakers and wiring protect homes from electrical fires and reduce the risk of electrical shock. A simple preventative maintenance checklist helps homeowners identify potential issues, such as loose connections or damaged wires.
Inspections ensure all electrical components, like fuses and residual-current devices (RCDs), function safely. Checking circuit breakers regularly can extend equipment lifespan, prevent costly repairs, and keep home insurance coverage valid.
An annual electrical inspection by a certified electrician provides peace of mind that circuits operate reliably through Ottawa's harsh winters and warm summers alike.
Surge protectors guard homes against power surges from lightning strikes and sudden electrical issues. They shield electronic devices, such as computers, TVs, EV chargers, HVAC wiring and kitchen appliances from expensive repairs.
Homeowners must include surge protector installation in preventive electrical maintenance checklists to secure property safety. Surge protective devices form an important part of new electrical installations and upgrades for improved reliability in household electricity supply.
