Key Electrical Projects to Think About This Spring

Typically, after the colder winter months, spring is a great time to think about electrical maintenance.  Electrical maintenance can include simply making any necessary repairs or upgrading if the time is right.  Think about these tasks to get your home electrical system ready for spring and summer.  Remember, if you don’t want to take the risk of doing any of these tasks yourself, a skilled electrician is here to help.

Landscape Lighting

Spring is a great time to spruce up the yard.  One way to do this is by having landscape lighting installed.  Not only does it look great and make for a great space to hang out during the nice spring evenings, but it can also add curb appeal to your home.  If you already have some landscape lighting but are looking to upgrade, now is the time.  Improve lighting in the pool area, around walkways, or in darker areas to improve safety.  An electrician can have landscape lighting installed this spring so you can enjoy the ambiance it creates on warm spring nights.

Ceiling Fans

Although it’s not quite summer, the days can begin to get warmer.  But turning on the AC can be an energy waster and increase the cost of monthly electric bills.  Having ceiling fans installed will not only lower the temperature in the home, but also keep those utility bills lower as well.  For year-round comfortable temperature in the home, call an experienced electrician to install ceiling fans.

Wiring and Fixtures

Spring is also the time many homeowners start remodeling projects.  Remodeling a home is a great time to also consider updating electrical wiring or fixtures throughout the home.  Replace any old wiring for increased efficiency and safety.  Updated fixtures can add appeal and value to any home.  When remodeling a home, contact a knowledgeable electrician to ensure wiring and fixtures are installed correctly.

Backup Generators

This time of year is the time of weather and storms.  Extreme weather can damage power lines and cause power outages.  A backup generator ensures homeowners have electricity to their homes even when the power is out.  Call a professional electrician to have one installed this spring.  Having a backup generator installed by a qualified electrician also ensures the warranty remains effective should something quit working.  It’s a great way to be sure you have electricity at all times this season.
