Power strips only protect what is plugged into them. A whole house surge protector, installed at your main panel in Lakewood, protects every circuit, including the air conditioner, furnace, refrigerator, and well pump that never touch a power strip.
Surge protection services
Most surges are small and come from inside the home or from utility switching, and over time they wear down circuit boards in appliances. A panel-mounted surge protective device handles both the everyday surges and the big storm-driven ones. In Lakewood we usually pair it with point-of-use protection for computers and televisions.

Whole House Surge Protection for Lakewood homes and businesses
Out on the eastern plains, Lakewood gets strong wind, hail, and fast-moving thunderstorms that can knock out power and send surges down the line. Farms, shops, wells, and irrigation equipment across Eddy County put real demand on electrical systems.
Depending on your address, power in Eddy County typically comes from Xcel Energy or Central Valley Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
Our surge protection covers all of Lakewood, along with neighboring Artesia, Carlsbad, Hope, and Loco Hills.

Whole House Surge Protection FAQs for Lakewood
Will a whole house surge protector stop a direct lightning strike?
Nothing fully protects against a direct strike to the house. A surge protector handles the far more common case: surges arriving on the power lines from nearby strikes and utility events.
How long does installation take?
Usually about an hour, with power off for only part of that time.
Do surge protectors wear out?
Yes. They absorb energy each time they work. Most have an indicator light that shows when the device needs replacing.
