Protect your home with electrical safety tips before hurricane season on Kauaʻi.

Hurricane season in Hawaiʻi runs from June to November, and while we all hope for calm weather, preparing your electrical system now can save you headaches later.
Step 1: Install Whole-Home Surge Protection
Lightning strikes and sudden power surges can fry expensive electronics in seconds.
Step 2: Secure a Backup Power Source
We can install whole-home generators or battery backup systems to keep essentials running.
Step 3: Elevate Outdoor Electrical
Raise and waterproof exterior outlets to protect them from flooding.
Step 4: Schedule a Pre-Storm Electrical Inspection
We’ll check your panel, grounding, and connections to ensure your system is storm-ready.
