WattsDog 'zaps the zap' before it happens, safeguarding valuable appliances, computers and electronic equipment from damage. Power surges, whether noticeable or not, are capable of damaging or destroying appliances and equipment in less than a second. Whether on or off, if they're plugged in, they're vulnerable. In fact, surge damage is often gradual and cumulative, meaning products may not actually malfunction until long after a surge, or after repeated smaller surges. That's why WattsDog was created.
Thunderstorms are the primary source of electrical surges.
Lightning strikes can enter your home through power, telephone or cable TV lines above or below the ground. Extreme weather conditions like snow, ice or gusty winds can also cause damaging surges to your home's valuable electrical appliances and equipment. The more you have, the more your need WattsDog protection. Providing a first level of protection, a meter collar intercepts surges sneaking through the meter into your home. But, truly safeguarding your valuable electronics requires inside protection as well.
