How To Prepare Your Electrical System For Winter

January, 7th, 2021

Categories: Uncategorized

how to winterize your electrical systemDuring the cold temperatures of wintertime, even if we don’t get a lot of snow in Texas, your electrical system works harder than you might realize. After all, if everything is working normally, you likely won’t give it a second thought.

Even though it’s already January, it’s never too late to winterize your electrical system as it can go a long way in terms of protecting your power. Here are a few things that you can do to make sure your system is equipped for the colder months of the year.

Protect Your Heat Source

No matter what kind of HVAC system you have to warm your property, it uses electricity to run. Therefore, it’s smart to make sure your heating system, be it a furnace, boiler, heat pump, or other heater, is functional and has a proper connection to the power grid. Hire a professional to come out and check on all of these so they can assure you that you’re set to stay warm enough all winter.

Consider Lighting Options

Because of daylight savings time, winter means it is darker outside for longer. This could mean you have lights on more often, which could run up the costs of your electricity bill. Consider switching to energy-efficient bulbs that don’t use as much power, and make sure that your outdoor lights are also sufficient for the dark days.

Have A Power Outage Plan

The inclement weather during wintertime can cause some major power outages. If the city experiences a blackout, do you know what to do? It is smart to have a plan B so you are not left in the dark inside. You can have a portable or whole-home generator installed to make sure that you have backup power. Reach out to an expert to discuss the options for generators.
