Key Home Electrical Projects for Spring
Your home will typically need electrical system maintenance tasks when spring arrives. It will be a good time to perform electrical upgrades and repairs after the colder months. The following will list several tasks that will get your home ready for spring and summer.
Ceiling Fans
During warmer days, homeowners rely on air conditioning systems to maintain comfortable temperatures. Unfortunately, this can drive up utility bills. The installation of ceiling fans in key areas of a home where people spend the most time will help decrease air conditioning use and lower costs. Not only can ceiling fans help provide year-round comfort, they are also aesthetically pleasing.
Upgrade Fixtures and Replace Wiring
Most remodeling projects are performed during spring and summer as contractors have an easier time working during these seasons. During the process of remodeling your house consider upgrading your electrical fixtures and replacing any outdated wiring as this is an ideal time to do so. This will result in improved energy efficiency while beautifying your home. A licensed electrician will also ensure your house is up to code.
Landscape Lighting
Family and friends will be spending more time outdoors at your home during the warmer months. Let your time together run late into the evening by having landscape lighting installed. You can improve curb appeal and safety outside your home with the right landscape lighting!
Outdoor Lighting Upgrades
Take the opportunity to install or improve lighting for pool areas, security, stairs, and walkways to promote safety. In addition, your home will look more attractive after sundown, increasing its resale value.
Standby Generator Installation & Maintenance
The Atlantic hurricane season starts on June 1 and continues until November 30. Extreme weather can bring down utility lines and cutting power to your home. Installing a home standby generator will ensure a steady supply of electricity for several days without needing a fuel resupply. If you already have a generator, be sure to faithfully follow the manufacturer’s maintenance guidelines with the help of the licensed electrician who performed the installation.
