As winter fades and spring settles in, it’s the perfect time to freshen up more than just your closets. Your home’s electrical system deserves a seasonal check-in too. In this episode of our Electrical Q&A series, we answer a question from Sandy in Wimberley about what homeowners should be doing to get their electrical systems spring-ready.
Main Points Covered in the Video:
✅ 1. Check Outdoor GFI Outlets
After months of rain and cold, outdoor outlets may need inspection to ensure they’re still weather-safe and functional.
✅ 2. Test Your Smoke Detector Batteries
Spring is a great seasonal reminder to swap out those batteries and test your alarms.
✅ 3. Review Your Circuit Breaker Panel
If you added new appliances or made upgrades over the winter, your electrical load may have changed. Make sure your panel can handle it.
✅ 4. Consider a Professional Tune-Up
Not sure where to start? PowerMeans Electric offers a Spring Tune-Up Service to take care of these checks and more—so you can focus on enjoying the season.
