So.....
1) Is a whole house suppressor worth it? Have you had appliance/electronic damage due to voltage spikes in The Villages?
2) These devices are available for a little over $100. Yes, I know what I'm doing re: electrical work.
Thx for the update on this topic.

Seco's surge protector have a ten year warranty. If you get a surge it might protect your appliances or it might not. Have them replace it and there is no installation charge. You can lease it from them for, I think $5.99 a month but there is an installation charge. I would have it installed. Well worth the protection!
