McAllister Electrical Services
Service that Matters in Eastern Iowa
In the summertime, the heat goes up, the AC gets turned down, the kids hit the pool, and it's time to kick back and relax by the barbeque. Summertime in the Midwest is a glorious time. But it's also important to remember that this season brings along a host of changes for your home, business, or farm's electrical needs that you need to be on the lookout for.
We’ve all been there…we’ve had flickering lights around the house that we’ve ignored or run a little extension cord under the couch to power a new tabletop lamp.
We intend for these to be temporary fixes until we have the time or money to address a long-term solution, but did you know that some electrical inconveniences around the house should not be put off, but instead need the immediate attention of a local electrician?
At McAllister Electrical Services, we want you and your family to sleep soundly each night knowing that your home is running in optimal condition, so we compiled this list of 7 Household No-Nos that need the immediate attention of local electrical experts if you see them around your home.
Dual-sensing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are important for the safety of your home and your family, and both devices are now legally required in all Iowa residential dwellings. These products keep you safe in emergencies, but only if they’re in working condition.
Make sure that the detectors you have in place are not only present, but functioning with our top tips for checking your detectors this spring.
