Do I Need to Rewire My Home?
Here are indications it’s time to rewire your home:
- It’s original to your home
- You smell burning
- Outlets are hot to the touch
- Every room has extension cords
The National Electric Code updates safety standards every three years. Most noticeable changes include grounding requirements and GFCI outlets that should be added to older homes. If you’re considering doing a remodel or renovation, that is the perfect time to let our professionals inspect and upgrade your electrical system. If you smell burning or outlets are hot to touch, wires are exposed behind your walls, causing arcing and sparks. These signs are the most significant indications of a potential fire hazard and should be addressed immediately.
Today, everything we use includes wi-fi or technological components, which is far different from previous years. Older homes tend to have fewer outlets, fewer circuits, or even fuses instead of breakers in their electrical panel. Replacing fuses with circuit breakers and placing additional outlets throughout your home help better manage your energy needs and create a safer system.
Wiring Additions to Your Space
- Smart home appliances: Smart light switches, blinds, and appliances may require extra wiring to integrate your home completely. Ohio Valley Electric is here for you with expert wiring and rewiring in Evansville.
- Guest houses: You may have an older child, elderly family members, or regular guests that could benefit from their own space. This may include a guest house or a finished basement that allows visitors to have a private space while being close to home.
- Security lighting: Outside, you may want to improve the security around your home by adding flood lights, motion sensor lighting, or spotlights at entrances. This can make protecting you and your family easier and deter intruders.
- Generators: Severe weather is never fun, but generators can reduce the stress caused by emergencies. Standby generators are great additions to your home that provide energy no matter when you need it.
- Remodels: When updating large areas of your home, you may want to completely rewire your space to include GFCI outlets or a whole-home surge protector that protects your appliances. If you’re redesigning your layout, we can help create a more functional design that works for you.
