Electrical needs? We've got you covered!
Many older homes throughout the Tri Cities of Washington have outdated electrical service. They simply cannot power air conditioners, computer equipment, and high-definition televisions.

Should you upgrade your electrical panel?
Electrical panels connect your home’s electrical system to the public utility lines and control the flow of electricity throughout the building. Although these panels have a long lifespan, you run the risk of inefficiency and system overloads if you use one that is too old or too small for your electricity needs.
Your electrical system is susceptible to the effects of wear and tear just like any other part of your home. The electrical panel in an old home may be dangerously out of date or does not meet current industry standards. If you live in or bought a home that’s a few decades old, you may want to consider having the panel replaced before it fails completely.
You should upgrade your electric panel if any of the following applies:
Panel is over 25 years old
Blinking, dimming, or flickering lights
Buzzing, sizzling, or cracking sounds coming from outlets
Frequently tripped breakers
Need to install more outlets
Uses fuses instead of circuit breakers
Visible signs of rust or damage
Overheating issues
Must unplug some appliances to use others
Too reliant on power strips
Appliances run at low efficiency
A-One Electrical Upgrades for a Safer, More Efficient Home
The past decade has seen drastic changes in the way we use electronic devices and the electricity required to power them.
By updating your home's wiring and electric panel, you can make sure that all of your outlets and appliances get the power they need to work safely and effectively. This will save you money on utility costs and reduce wear and tear on your electronics.
Also, making sure your electric panels are up to date and meet industry standards reduces the chance of system failures, power surges, and risk of fire in your home.
We strongly advise having your electric panel inspected regularly and replaced if necessary. The experienced electricians at A-One can check the condition of your home's electrical system, including the electrical panel, and recommend upgrades to keep your home's electrical systems running at their best for many years to come.

Some Tri Cities homes need 200 AMP service to power all their appliances and equipment. However, some older homes only have 60 AMP service. The A-One team of electricians gets the service upgrade done right and is certified by the State of Washington. Proper electrical service upgrades can improve the safety of your home and may increase its property value.
