FAQs
How can an electrical inspection from Lechner Electric prevent ceiling fan wiring failures in my Medford home?
Our Medford electrical inspections specifically check the wiring and electrical boxes in your ceilings. We ensure the fan is on a dedicated circuit with proper support and gauge wiring to handle the constant motion and load. This proactive check identifies loose connections, old wiring, or incorrect installations—common causes of failure—allowing us to fix them before your fan stops working or becomes a fire hazard.
Will a standard electrical inspection detect if my home is at risk for power surge damage?
Yes, absolutely. During our inspection for Medford homeowners, we evaluate your electrical panel, grounding system, and existing surge protection. We look for signs of past surges and check if your current setup can handle the local grid's fluctuations. We often find older homes or those with only power strip protection are highly vulnerable and recommend solutions like panel-mounted surge protectors to defend your appliances.
I had a power surge that damaged my appliance. Should I just replace it, or do I need an inspection first?
We strongly recommend an inspection first. A surge powerful enough to damage an appliance indicates a vulnerability in your home's electrical system. Simply replacing the appliance leaves your new one—and all others—at risk. Our inspection will locate the source of the vulnerability, whether it's faulty wiring, poor grounding, or a lack of proper surge protection, and we'll fix the root cause to prevent future damage.
