Hi there!
Casandra with Pike's Electric here

A few suggestions:
1. During the summer months/hurricane season, it is good to have a homewatch person. Whether it be a neighbor or a company who specializes, such as Empty Nest. This individual should stop by the home periodically and go in and make sure the electric is working and no breakers are tripped or non-functional due to surges. If anything is tripped, such as a breaker or GFI outlet, this person should be experienced in how to reset them OR have a great point of contact, hopefully us at Pike's Electric to help in times of need.
2. We offer a whole home surge protection unit, called the Eaton Ultra. If your home's panel allows, some restrictions apply, we can install this unit which will protect your home's major appliances such as the refrigerator, A/C, washer, dryer, range, etc. from surge damage. We suggest this to all Villages residents, full time or part time. Here's a link to read more about it on our website:

Please give us a call if you have any questions. We are happy to assist!
