Electrical surges from lightning or large appliance cycles can cause significant damage to all of your plugged-in devices, necessitating extensive repairs.

Large appliance cycles
Damaged electronics
Unexpected repairs can be both daunting and costly. Our Surge Protection Program protects you from these unexpected costs. See above for what we cover.

Since the year 2000, we have grown to provide protection for over 1 million homeowners. American Water Resources is an independent third-party provider of optional home protection programs.

Surge damage can also be caused by large appliances cycling on and off, such as a furnace or refrigerator. Restoring power after an electrical outage can also cause surges.
