How Important is Emergency Power to your Home?

     Electricity is the lifeblood of your home. A power outage that lasts for even a few hours can be a terrible inconvenience. An extended weather related power failure accompanied by storms or severe temperatures can cause flooded basements, frozen pipes, structural damage and financial hardship. Pumps, furnaces, air conditioners, security systems, lights, stoves, water heaters and refrigerators all depend on electricity to keep your home safe, secure and running smoothly.
     The average American home may depend on electricity for more than one hundred electrical devices. Even a short power interruption can cause discomfort and inconvenience.
The Electric Power Research Institute reports that lightning and faults (short circuits) cause approximately 90 percent of all power interruptions on power distribution lines. These faults can be caused by severe weather, natural disasters, small animals or vehicles accidentally downing power poles and lines. Destructive high winds, ice and snow compound the severity of any power interruption and can lead to property loss or, worse yet, personal injury.
     However, if you own a Guardian emergency power system, you can relax. Guardian protects life and property by supplying vital electricity when you need it most.
