These are devices that are also most likely to induce smaller surges into other sensitive electrical devices in your home that can degrade electronics over time.

Thanks for posting this. As part of the layered surge protection approach, you can also install these point-of-use protectors specifically designed for your HVAC and pool and spa systems. I have these installed at my home. What they do is if a power surge is induced into the power lines of your pool equipment for example, this protector will block it protecting the equipment and also prevent the surge from traveling back to your main circuit breaker panel and spreading to the rest of your home. It will also block any power surges created by the switching On and OFF of your HVAC compressor and pool and or spa motors, etc.
The ones that you show by Intermatic are very reasonable and work very well and you can get them on Amazon. Just they are sometimes tricky to install so an electrician can install them for you.
