Surge Protection Program

<empty>Just as lightning devastates trees, lightning, power surges or spikes can also damage appliances and electronics.

The easiest protection is to prevent the surges from getting into your home. BTES offers a Surge Protection Program to do just that.


Service Entrance Protection Program

A BTES-owned Service Entry Device can be installed for $5.95 per month and is charged to your electric bill. The installation is free. This device stops power surges before they reach your electronics and/or your appliances.  This device acts as an insurance policy providing coverage for major appliances and HVAC units up to $1,000 per appliance and a maximum of $10,000 per event.  Major appliances would include washer, dryer, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, stove and garbage disposal.

Individual Protection Devices for Electronics

Additional protection devices may be purchased to protect TV, VCR, DVD, stereo, computer, satellite, answering machine, telephone, cable TV, microwave and garage door openers. If you use the plug-in individual units in conjunction with the Service Entry Device above, additional insurance coverage is available.

You may purchase a plug-in starter kit for $85.

The kit contains:
One eight-receptacle plug strip with cable protection unit ($49.95)
One three-receptacle plug strip ($19.95)
One single-outlet unit ($9.95)
One single-outlet unit with telephone protection ($11.95)
Receptacle circuit tester

Each item may be purchased individually, and the cost may be added to your electric bill.

Other starter kits are available to meet specific customer needs.
