FAQs
What should I do if my arc fault breaker keeps tripping in my Friday Harbor home?
Frequent arc fault breaker trips are a common safety issue in local homes, often caused by aging wiring, moisture in outlets, or faulty appliances. Swiftwater Electric and Solar can diagnose the specific cause—whether it's a loose connection in your panel or a problem within a circuit. We provide thorough inspections and repairs to resolve the nuisance trips and ensure your electrical system is safe and up to current code standards for island homes.
What are the benefits of choosing Pearl Certified for my solar installation?
Choosing a Pearl Certified contractor, like Swiftwater, means your solar or electrical upgrade project meets rigorous national standards for quality, performance, and durability. This certification provides an added layer of assurance on your investment. For solar specifically, it verifies proper system design and installation, which supports the performance of our high-efficiency panels that are designed to produce more energy over their 25-year lifespan, a key consideration for maximizing savings in the San Juans.
Can you handle both the electrical work and solar installation for a full home energy upgrade?
Yes, absolutely. As a full-service electrical and solar contractor, we manage the entire project seamlessly. This includes upgrading your home's electrical panel to handle the new solar system and any future additions like an EV charger or battery backup, then professionally installing the rooftop or ground-mount solar array. Handling both sides ensures the systems are perfectly integrated, compliant with all codes, and optimized for your home's energy needs here in the islands.
