One Source Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical is reminding Huntsville homeowners that electrical safety starts with the panel and surge protection systems that power the entire home.

Outdated wiring, aging panels, and a lack of surge protection leave households vulnerable to fire hazards, power failures, and costly damage to appliances and electronics.

Huntsville's unique mix of historic neighborhoods and newly built communities means both older homes and modern residences can face electrical risks. In older properties, outdated panels may not be equipped to handle today's higher energy demands. In newer homes, a lack of whole-home surge protection can still leave expensive appliances, HVAC systems, and electronics exposed during storms or unexpected power surges.

One Source encourages homeowners to schedule professional electrical evaluation that include:

• Panel Inspections – Ensuring panels are properly sized, safely wired, and free of wear or damage.

• Panel Upgrades – Replacing outdated systems with modern equipment that supports today's energy needs.

• Surge Protection Installation – Safeguarding appliances and electronics against storm-related surges and grid fluctuations.

• Safety Checks – Identifying fire hazards or code violations that could compromise home safety.

By addressing these areas proactively, Huntsville families can reduce the risk of electrical emergencies, improve energy efficiency, and ensure their homes are prepared for both seasonal storms and modern household demands.

One Source Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical proudly serves Huntsville and surrounding North Alabama communities, delivering comprehensive services that keep homes safe, efficient, and reliable year-round.
