If you were one of the thousands affected by the derecho in May, you’re probably thinking about reliable power and protection for your family and home.  Many Houston residents experienced weeks without power and the recovery continues throughout the area.  Were you one of the many caught off guard, without a backup source of power or a plan for your family?  Were your electronics properly protected?  Even with insurance, the process of getting your valuable equipment replaced and installed is time consuming and inconvenient, to say the least.  Echo Workshop has whole-home solutions, as well as surge protection and surge elimination solutions, so when the next big storm hits (and you know it will), you can remain comfortably in your own home.

Surge suppression devices divert and/or diminish excessive current and voltage.  However, depending on the amount of voltage, surge suppression cannot always eliminate the threat to your electronics, and it should also be noted that the device must be plugged directly into the surge suppressor.  Surge elimination, on the other hand, is used to protect your whole home by diverting excess voltage into the ground before it reaches your electronic devices.  We are talking protection for big-ticket items such as costly HVAC systems, stoves, washers, dryers, etc.  Surge elimination is installed near your home’s electrical panel and offers protection for your entire home.

To keep you comfortable through any storm we offer battery backup systems that work in conjunction with your home generator.  Battery backup not only provides uninterrupted power during an outage, it also cleans up all of the electrical power in your home, eliminating the extra noise (an unwanted disturbance in an electrical signal), which in turns improves the longevity of any electronic device. These systems can also help you better manage power usage and save you money.

Echo Workshop offers customized solutions to protect your electronics and keep you comfortable during Houston’s crazy weather events.  Don’t wait until the storm hits to explore methods to keep your life running smoothly and protect your home and costly electronics.  Contact Echo Workshop today for a personalized power protection solution.
