Question Answers

My lights are flickering in my older Clare home. Could this be due to rodent damage or an overloaded panel?

In Clare's older homes and rural settings, flickering lights are often a sign of one of two common issues. Rodents can chew through wiring insulation, creating dangerous shorts and arcing. Alternatively, an outdated electrical panel may be overloaded by modern appliances, causing breakers to trip or circuits to behave erratically. As a local team familiar with these problems, SLS Electric can perform a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's damaged wiring needing repair or a panel upgrade—and provide a clear, upfront solution to restore safe, reliable power to your home.

I'm considering a backup generator for my Clare property. What does your installation process involve?

Installing a home backup generator is a significant project that requires careful planning for safety and compliance. Our process begins with a site visit to assess your home's electrical panel, fuel source (typically natural gas or propane), and the ideal generator location. We handle all aspects of the installation, including pouring a concrete pad, running the necessary fuel line and electrical conduit, installing a transfer switch, and connecting the unit to your home's electrical system. With over 30 years of experience, we ensure the installation meets all local codes and is configured to automatically power your essential circuits during a Clare power outage.

What should I expect during an electrical panel replacement or upgrade with SLS Electric?

A panel swap is a major upgrade that enhances your home's safety and electrical capacity. Our process starts with a detailed evaluation of your current system and your household's power needs. On the day of the installation, we will coordinate with the utility company to safely disconnect power. We then remove the old panel, install the new one, meticulously transfer all circuits, and ensure proper grounding and bonding. Finally, we have the utility reconnect power and perform thorough testing of all circuits. As a father-son team, we pride ourselves on efficient, clean workmanship and clear communication throughout the project.
