Understanding Home Power Management to Protect Your Devices

We don’t usually give much thought to the energy that powers our homes. We flick on the lights, open the refrigerator, and turn on the TV without a thought.

But how? We’ll break down all you need to know about surge protectors, battery backups, and energy control, so your Dallas, TX-area home stays safe and powered with ‘clean energy.’
